Hero MotoCorp has launched the XPulse 200 and the XPulse 200T in India today. The XPulse 200 is offered in two variants - Carb (Rs 97,000) and Fi (Rs 1.05 lakh). While Hero offers the XPulse 200T only in Carb variant, priced at Rs 94,000. Along with these, the company has also introduced a fully-faired version of the Xtreme 200R, called the Xtreme 200S at Rs 98,500 (all prices ex-showroom Delhi).
Starting with the XPulse range, the XPulse 200 is the off-road oriented motorcycle, on the lines of the original Impulse, and gets long-travel suspension, 220mm of ground clearance and large wire-spoke wheels (21-inch up front and 18-inch at the rear) wrapped in knobby Ceat Gripp tyres. To suit its purpose, it also features a beak-like front fender, sump guard, knuckle guards and a high-mounted exhaust for better water-wading capability.
Coming to the XPulse 200T, it is a road-biased touring derivative of the XPulse 200. For instance, you get the same urban-friendly wheel setup as the Hero Xtreme 200R, 17-inch alloy wheels shod with tubeless MRF rubber(100/80 - front, 130/70 - rear). It gets its own unique suspension tuning despite the units looking exactly similar to the ones on the XPulse. In terms of features, both motorcycles get a fully digital instrument console, Bluetooth connectivity, turn-by-turn navigation accessible via an app, LED lights at both ends and a single-channel ABS system.
The Hero Xtreme 200S, on the other hand, gets all the same internals of the Xtreme 200R albeit in a fully-faired package. However, it does get some additional bits like LED headlamps and a fully-digital instrument console.
Speaking of which, powering all three motorcycles is the same 199.6cc air-cooled, fuel-injected engine that generates 18.4PS of power and 17.1Nm of torque, mated to a 5-speed transmission.
