Our take on this /// Verdict

The Hero Xtreme 160R Drum Brake Model is a solid contender in the 160cc segment, offering a blend of style, performance, and practicality. While it may not be the most powerful bike in its class, its 163cc engine provides a linear power delivery and decent low-end punch, making it an excellent city bike. The bikes agile handling, comfortable ergonomics, and well-tuned suspension ensure a smooth ride even on rough Indian roads. However, the single-channel ABS and the somewhat wooden brake feel might not inspire complete confidence. Despite these minor drawbacks, the Xtreme 160R is a very promising bike that offers great value for its price, especially for those looking for a commuter with a sporty and modern design.

Latest Updates

The bike is now priced at Rs 1.11 lakh, making it Rs 10,000 more affordable than the previous model. It also features a drag race timer and a 0-60kph timer, which are segment-first features. I think these updates make the Xtreme 160R 2V a compelling option in its segment.

Miscellaneous Information
Ex Showroom Price vs On Road Price	Ex-Showroom Price is the Manufacturing Cost of the vehicle + Dealer/Seller Profit + GST (Goods and Service Tax) + Transportation Charges (from the manufacturing plant to the dealership). On the other hand, the On-Road Price is the actual cost you pay to the dealership to make the vehicle legal to run on the roads. It includes Ex-Showroom Price in your city + RTO Charges (Vehicle Registration) + One Time Road Tax + Insurance Charges. The On-Road Price also includes some optional things like if you opt for Genuine Accessories and Extended Warranty while buying a vehicle. Please note that the On-Road Price varies a lot across different states in India due to different percentage for the State Registration Charges.
