Fast and Agile Urban Rider

The Hero Xtreme 160R pulls strongly from lower gears with its 163.2cc engine and feels confident near 107 kmph. The lightweight chassis supports quick direction changes inside tight city gaps. The all-LED lighting package enhances visibility during late-evening rides. The speedometer layout also presents information clearly without clutter, even at faster cruising speeds.

Ride Ready, Road Friendly

I got the Hero Xtreme 160R to manage everyday travel, and it’s been a good choice. Xtreme 160R also has a digital meter and LED lights, which look quite nice. Moreover, the bike comes with a 163cc engine, which gives fast response in traffic, and the bike feels light to handle. Lastly, the fuel efficiency is around 43-44 kmpl, which is also quite decent when compared to other bikes.
