With the Xtreme 250R, Hero MotoCorp is directly aiming at other edgy-looking streetfighters in the 250cc segment, including the KTM 250 Duke, Husqvarna Vitpilen 250 and Bajaj Pulsar N250. The affordable pricing and flamboyant styling of the Xtreme 250R should help Hero MotoCorp find a strong foothold in the 250cc category

  • Sporty Design: Aggressive streetfighter styling with sharp bodywork and LED lighting.
  • Feature-Packed: TFT display, Bluetooth connectivity, riding modes, traction control.
  • Performance-Oriented Handling: Trellis frame, USD forks, and preload-adjustable monoshock.

  • Dual-Channel ABS: Offers better braking control with switchable rear ABS.

• What could have been better

  • No Adjustable Levers: Lacks adjustable brake and clutch levers for better ergonomics.
  • Pillion may feel uncomfortable: Due to a smaller pillion seat, pillion may find it discomforting to sit for longer rides.
  • Build quality: The bike uses hard plastic in some areas, but this is okay when we look at the price point.
  • Low visibility of the TFT screen: The TFT screen offers good visibility in the shade but struggles under direct sunlight.
  • Stiff Competition: Faces tough rivals like KTM 250 Duke and Bajaj Pulsar N250, but an aggressive price point is the key of success for the brand.
