      New Hero Xtreme 160R Stealth Edition Teased Ahead Of Launch

      by

      New Hero Xtreme 160 Stealth EditionUpon its launch, Stealth Edition of Hero Xtreme 160R is likely to be priced at a premium of Rs 5,000 over the top-spec variant of the standard model
      Hero MotoCorp is planning to launch a raft of new products in the coming days. The company has already introduced the new Xpulse 200 4V which comes with a more powerful engine at a slightly higher price. The bikemaker has now teased the upcoming Stealth Edition of Xtreme 160R on its social media channels.
      The Stealth Edition is most likely to be an aesthetically enhanced variant of the standard Xtreme 160R and sits on top of the range. That said, it is expected to be offered with same specifications as the regular variants. The short teaser video shows a human face with a pair of eyes that transform into a pair of LED position lights.
      New Hero Xtreme 160R Stealth Edition – Updated Styling
      LED DRLs are flanked on each side of the V-shaped LED headlamp which gives it a menacing look upfront. The primary difference between the standard model and Stealth Edition is that the latter will be wrapped around by a dark colour scheme with a Matte finish.
      In the spy shots leaked earlier, the motorcycle was seen wearing black paint with touches of blue on its tail section and headlamp cowl. Take a look at the new teaser video of new Hero Xtreme 160R – Go Boom.
      [embedded content]
      The updated naked streetfighter will be riding on black alloy wheels while rims will be coloured red to give it a sporty contrast. A few touches of gloss finishes will also be present which will lend the bike an overall premium appeal. Apart from this, styling of the Stealth Edition is exactly same as the standard Xtreme 160R with highlights such as a raised tail section, single-piece seat, split grab rails and a muscular fuel tank.
      Features on offer
      In terms of features, Xtreme 160R offers an all-LED lighting setup, a side stand engine cut off switch, an inverted LCD console and hazard lights. It also gets an Auto Sail technology which allows the bike to easily glide in traffic at low speeds. It is yet to be seen if it will be equipped with Hero Connect telematics which offers various connectivity features to the rider such as in-built navigation, last location, etc.
      Mechanical Specs
      Coming to hardware specifications, Stealth Edition of Xtreme 160R will be suspended on 37mm telescopic forks upfront sourced from Showa and a mono-shock at rear. Braking duties will be handled by disc brakes at both ends which will be complemented by a single-channel ABS. It will be riding on 17-inch front and rear wheels, the latter shod with a radial tyre.
      Powering the Stealth Edition will be the same 163cc, single-cylinder two-valve engine that powers the standard model. This motor is coupled with a 5-speed gearbox and will push out 15 bhp at 8,500rpm and 14 Nm of peak torque at 6,500rpm. While output figures aren’t exactly class-leading, it has one of the best power to weight ratios in the segment at a kerb weight of 139.5kg. More

      Hero Xpulse 200 4V Launch Price Rs 1.28 L – New LEDs, More Power

      by

      2021 Hero Xpulse 200 4VHero Xpulse 200 is the most affordable entry-level adventure-ready bike of its kind in the country
      Largely unchallenged in 200cc ADV segment, Xpulse has contributed consistent sales numbers for Hero MotoCorp. To improve its prospects further, a 4V version has been launched today, just ahead of the festive season. Price starts from Rs Rs 1,28,150, ex-Delhi.
      The primary change will be a 4-valve engine, as compared to 2-valve setup of existing model. Xpulse 200 4V will be better equipped to handle competition from new rivals such as Honda CB200X. The latter was launched in August at a competitive price point of Rs 1.44 lakh.
      Performance boost
      Hero Xpulse 200 4V will primarily target improved performance. Even though 4-valve engines can be costlier to manufacture, they provide a range of benefits. 4-valve system ensures improved air flow to the engine, which allows the fuel to burn more efficiently.
      As they have less mass and are lighter, smaller valves are able to move more freely in comparison to a larger single valve. This allows the engine to run on higher RPM, thereby extracting more power. More efficient fuel combustion also translates into reduced emissions.
      2021 Hero Xpulse 200 4V
      As per Hero MotoCorp, the new Xpulse 200 4v delivers 6% more power and 5% added torque – compared to the existing Xpulse 200. The new Xpulse 4 Valve oil cooled engine produces a power output of 19.1 PS @ at 8500 RPM and torque of 17.35 Nm @ 6500rpm. It is mated to a 5-speed constant mesh transmission.
      Another benefit of having more valves is that they reduce the pressure on camshaft lobes. Provided that the engine is well-engineered, a 4-valve setup can enhance the engine’s durability. With a 4-valve setup, it becomes easier to install the spark plug at the centre of the cylinder head. This allows better propagation of spark, resulting in more efficient combustion.
      Another benefit is that a 4-valve system keeps the cylinder head cooler. The engine can thus perform efficiently for longer durations without heating up. This will make Xpulse 200 4V better prepared for long-distance rides on highways.
      2021 Hero Xpulse 200 4V
      Hero Xpulse 200 4V style updates
      Along with an updated oil cooling system, the new Xpulse 200 4V comes with improved seat profile and upgraded LED headlights. To differentiate it from the current model, Hero Xpulse 200 4V will get 3 new colour options of Trail Blue, Blitz Blue, and Red Raid. The current model is available in colour options of White, Matte Green, Matte Grey, Sports Red and Panther Black. Graphics have also been revised, which now look more refined. 4Valve highlighting can be seen on the fuel tank.
      Most other features and equipment will be the same as that of the current model. Some of the distinguishable features of Hero Xpulse 200 include its raised front fender, circular headlamp, spear-shaped turn indicators, knuckle guards, decent sized windscreen, sculpted fuel tank, engine guard, and upswept exhaust. While the current model has its engine blacked-out, the one on Xpulse 200 4V comes in its original metallic shade.
      Xpulse 200 utilizes a tubular diamond frame with telescopic front forks and monoshock rear suspension. It runs on dual-purpose 90/90-21 front and 120/80-18 rear tyres. It has 276 mm and 220 mm petal disc at front and rear, respectively. Single-channel ABS is offered as standard. Rally Kit will continue to be on offer with the Xpulse 4V. More
