Hero Xpulse 200 4V

The looks and design of the Xpulse 200 4V are similar to the Xpulse 200T naked bike, but, it does come with a distinguished body design with a hardcore setup for off-roading adventures. While the overall body is slim and tidy, the sleek LED headlight with a small windscreen has become a trademark for the Xpulse 200 4V in the market. The instrument cluster is now all-digital & it displays the average fuel economy, and gear indicator, & as well as comes with Bluetooth connectivity. The Xpulse 200 4V is also equipped with a USB charger. The single-wide seat is comfortable to sit and ride. The rear also embeds the use of a single taillight in a typical adventure bike design layout. The use of spoked wheels makes the overall design look subtle and practical as well.

The dimensions of the Xpulse 200 4V are sleek and long as per the adventure motorcycle segment. The slim & sculpted fuel tank design with the small overall length helps the Xpulse 200 4V to become an easy handler over the rough roads and in slush too. The more turning radius and the placement of the handlebar make using the Xpulse 200 4V a bit hesitant as compared to the rivals in the segment. This is due to the semi-fairing body style characteristic that the Xpulse 200 4V beholds. 

The Hero Xpulse 200 4V is known for its ultra-reliable and fuel economic engine. Hero has equipped the Xpulse 200 4V with the most iconic, tried & tested engine in the entry-level sports motorcycle segment of India. The 199.6cc, oil-cooled engine makes out a peak power of 19 hp & 17.35 Nm of peak torque. While these figures might not look big over the paper, the lightweight Xpulse 200 4V picks up well for its weight and power figures. Hero has equipped the Xpulse 200 4V with a 5-speed gearbox that delivers the power to the rear wheel. Also, due to the small engine capacity which is BS6 compliant now, the Xpulse 200 4V can deliver up to an ARAI-claimed fuel economy of 49.01 kmpl which is decent among the segment rivals. 

It is the good setup of tyres and brakes altogether that makes the Hero Xpulse 200 4V one of the most well-knitted city motorcycles for the everyday commute. The potential buyers love the 21-inch front & the 18-inch rear tyres which are supported by a good combination of disc brakes on both ends. This setup provides the Xpulse 200 4V with confidence-inspiring handling over the off-road patches.

The ride & handling of Xpulse 200 4V is well-tuned according to the Indian roads. The 37 mm of travel in the front forks provides the Xpulse 200 4V with good off-road tackling capability. The ride quality is soft with a pillion but it feels firm when ridden solo. Contrary to this, high-speed riding becomes stable and the suspension works well over the undulations of the road. Hero Xpulse 200 4V is designed for the everyday office commuter as well as for taming the high-altitude Himalayan passes.
