Hero MotoCorp has launched the BS6-compliant 2021 Xpulse 200T at an asking price of Rs. 1,12,800/- (ex-showroom, Delhi).
Apart from making the model compliant with BS6 norms, the 2-wheeler manufacturer has not made any major changes and that includes the bike’s styling as well.
Only 3 paint options are offered with the motorcycle for now and they are – Matte Shield Gold, Panther Black and Sports Red.
The 2021 Hero Xpulse 200T price gets customers features such as a full-LED headlight and a digital instrument cluster sporting smartphone connectivity with turn-by-turn navigation and call alerts.
A 199.6cc oil-cooled 2 valve motor that produces a maximum of 18.1 PS at 8500 RPM and 16.15 Nm of peak torque at 6500 RPM powers the Xpulse 200T. The engine is mated to a 5-speed transmission.
Weighing in at 154 kg, the motorcycle has a 13-litre fuel tank, a decent 177 mm ground clearance and seat height of 799 mm.
The damping duty is carried over by 37 mm front telescopic forks and a 7-step adjustable rear monoshock, while a 276 mm disc upfront and 220 mm disc at the rear, help stop the motor. It also has single channel ABS.
Further, the bike rides on 17-inch rims wrapped by 100/80-section front and 130/70-section rear tyres and, along with the Xpulse 200, the asking price of which is more than the 2021 Hero Xpulse 200T price, should help Hero gain more sales in the 200cc motorcycle segment.
