The festive season is always exciting for bike lovers, and Hero MotoCorp is gearing up to add more spark to it. The updated Hero Xtreme 160R 4V has been leaked from a dealer showcase, and the pictures reveal some exciting new features and cosmetic changes that are sure to attract young riders.
What’s New in the Xtreme 160R 4V?
The upcoming Combat Edition of the Hero Xtreme 160R 4V will sit at the top of the lineup. The biggest highlights are the cruise control feature and a brand-new 4.2-inch multi-colour TFT instrument cluster. This unit, borrowed from the Karizma XMR 210 and Xtreme 250R, comes with connectivity options, call & SMS alerts, and even turn-by-turn navigation.
Fresh Cosmetic Updates
Hero hasn’t stopped at features. The new LED headlamp gives the bike a sportier and sharper look, while the fresh paint schemes and stylish graphics add to its youthful appeal.
Stronger Competition in the Segment
Currently, the Hero Xtreme 160R 4V rivals the Bajaj Pulsar N160 and TVS Apache RTR 160 4V. With cruise control, TFT console, and ride modes added to its package, the Xtreme 160R 4V is expected to make the competition tougher in the 160cc sporty commuter segment.
