UM Xtreet 250X Updates

Friday, 20 April 2018 09:37 PM The UM Xtreet 250X has been criticized for its blatant design similarities to the older generation KTM Duke models. From the tank design to the split seat and even the orange-painted frame, the similarities are hard to ignore. This move has raised questions about UMs originality and design ethics. I think this could harm their reputation in the Indian market.

Tuesday, 17 April 2018 01:05 AM UM Motorcycles unveiled the Xtreet 250X on their international website, replacing the Xtreet 230 R. The new model claims to be 35% faster and 15% more fuel-efficient than its predecessor. However, the lack of original design has overshadowed these performance claims.

Sunday, 15 April 2018 10:39 AM Despite the controversy, the UM Xtreet 250X comes with some notable features such as front and rear disc brakes, upside-down forks, and a contrast-painted orange frame. The bike is available in black, white, and a neon green variant. These features might appeal to some buyers looking for a sporty ride.

Tuesday, 10 April 2018 09:11 AM UM Motorcycles has been trying to establish itself as a non-Chinese brand, emphasizing its USA Originated tag since its registration in the early 2000s. However, the Xtreet 250Xs design copying has undermined this effort and raised skepticism among potential buyers.

Thursday, 05 April 2018 09:12 PM The Xtreet 250X was first showcased in India at the 2014 Auto Expo, but it was the R version, which had a different design. The new models design shift has sparked debate among motorcycle enthusiasts about UMs design strategy. I believe this could impact their sales in the competitive Indian market.

Sunday, 25 March 2018 11:47 PM UM Motorcycles has also ventured into the Indian market with other models like the Duty Street cruisers and the Thor, the worlds first e-cruiser with a reverse gear. However, the Xtreet 250Xs controversy might overshadow these other offerings.

Tuesday, 20 March 2018 05:48 PM The official UM website has not listed the detailed specifications of the Xtreet 250X yet, but the company claims significant improvements in speed and fuel efficiency. Buyers will have to wait for more detailed reviews to see if these claims hold up.

Thursday, 15 March 2018 08:50 AM The market is eagerly waiting to see how KTM will respond to UMs design copying. This could lead to a public feud between the two companies, affecting consumer perception of both brands. I think KTMs response will be crucial in how this situation unfolds.

Saturday, 10 March 2018 03:38 PM The Xtreet 250X is available in two primary colors – black and white with orange frames – and an additional white with neon green variant shown on the website. The color options might appeal to some buyers, but the design issue remains a significant concern.

Monday, 05 March 2018 02:21 PM UM Motorcycles decision to copy the KTM Dukes design has sparked a discussion about intellectual property and originality in the motorcycle industry. This incident highlights the challenges companies face in balancing innovation with market competition.
