Hero MotoCorp has launched the 2024 Hero Xtreme 160R 2V in India, priced at Rs 1.11 lakh (ex-showroom), making it Rs 10,000 more affordable than the outgoing model. Interestingly, the bikemaker also updated the Xtreme 160R 4V in July this year. The refreshed Xtreme 160R 2V has undergone subtle modifications for enhanced style and comfort. One of the key design upgrades is the striking H-shaped LED taillight, offering a modern look to complement the bike's sporty profile. The Xtreme 160R 2V comes in a single black-finished variant. Furthermore, since the bike has a rear drum brake, it only features a single-channel ABS. Read on to learn more about the updates given to the new Xtreme 160R 2V.
