Hero MotoCorp has launched the all-new Xtreme 160R 4V and refreshed Xtreme 250R, strengthening its premium motorcycle portfolio with upgraded performance, advanced rider-assistance technology and revised styling.

The Xtreme 160R 4V is powered by a 163cc, four-valve, oil-cooled engine producing 17.1 PS and 14.6 Nm of torque. Features include three riding modes, segment-first cruise control, dual-channel ABS, Panic Brake Alert and a new TFT console. Prices start at Rs 1.27 lakh for the Standard variant, with the Pro and Carbon variants priced at Rs 1.37 lakh and Rs 1.41 lakh, respectively.

The refreshed Xtreme 250R features a 250cc liquid-cooled engine delivering 30 PS and 25.3 Nm of torque. It introduces four riding modes, cruise control, a bidirectional quickshifter, a tyre pressure monitoring system and frequency-selective damping rear suspension. Its introductory price is Rs 1.98 lakh.

Both motorcycles will be available through Hero MotoCorp dealerships, with the Xtreme 250R sold through Hero Premia outlets. Bookings open on October 17, while deliveries are scheduled to begin on November 1. All prices are ex-showroom, Delhi.

In Kolkata, the launches expand options for buyers seeking performance-oriented motorcycles with premium technology. The models’ pricing and feature upgrades could strengthen their appeal among young riders and enthusiasts in the city, although local demand will depend on on-road costs and dealership availability.
