Although the 200T's upcoming facelift will retain some of its previous generation's aesthetic features, it will also feature some new ones. The new fly screen over the headlight unit is the first and most significant of them. To further the motorcycle's classic appearance, fork gaiters have been added to the front forks. The motorcycle's handlebars have been raised, which will improve its ergonomics for long journeys. Additionally, it now has a new belly pan.
When it comes to aesthetics, the variant that is in the video is in a sort of bronze-black dual-tone matte color, which suggests that Hero may introduce the dual-tone colour shades in India. On the tank, it gets new body graphics as well.
Coming to the bike, the rear profile now has a new grab rail that is a tube-style grab rail rather than a unit resembling a luggage rack. The bike's other features are identical to those of the previous generation. The indicator units are bulb-type, and the LED headlamp and tail lamp units are identical. The digital instrument cluster will be similar to the previous gen.
