Hero's Futures Xtreme 210R: A Cost-effectiveness Rival
The Hero Xtreme 210R will face off alongside a number of rivals when it debuts on the market, including the Suzuki Gixxer 250 and KTM 200 Duke. Hero MotoCorp's Xtreme 210R will likely to be a more affordable option, defeating its competitors by significant amounts. The Xtreme 210R, which sits directly underneath the Karizma XMR, is expected to retail for a tempting Rs. 1.7 lakh (ex-showroom).
Hero's EICMA Event: The Attractive 2.5R XTUNT Idea
Hero MotoCorp is once again entertaining the crowd at the ongoing EICMA event with its newest products. The 2.5R XTUNT, a concept motorcycle in the naked streetfighter class, is one of them. Hero hasn't revealed many specifics about this concept motorcycle, but they have teased us with terms like "unapologetic style" and "adrenaline-infused urban adventure". They did, however, agree on a few essentials, such as establishing that the XTUNT has an adjustable rear monoshock, USD forks, and a Trellis frame.
Based on a more thorough examination of the motorcycle and the information provided by Hero, it looks like this is the streetfighter version of the faired Karizma, and these was just unveiled in India. There's a good chance that this concept will go into production, much like the 1.R concept from the 2019 EICMA, which ultimately turned into the new Xtreme 160R. I think this is the Xtreme 210R that Hero may already be testing on the roads, even if the 2.5R prefix might have made us think this is a 250cc prototype.
Additional compatible with the portfolio is the Xtreme 210R than the Xtreme 200R (which in turn depends on the antiquated Xpulse 200 platform). Along with its faired sibling, it will be expected to use the same 210cc, DOHC, liquid-cooled engine as the Karizma, with outputs of 25.5 PS and 20.4 Nm, making it one of the most powerful motorcycles in the class. Given that it will be the Karizma's naked sibling, its selling price might be projected to be between 1.65 and 1.70 Lac, which is slightly lower than the faired sibling. We are making predictions on 2024, but we don't know when the Xtreme 210R will premiere afterward. It might happen in June or July!
