Hero MotoCorp launches new Xtreme 150cc motorcycle

If you are wondering whether this is the same Xtreme which Hero showcased earlier this year, along with the HX250R, than the answer is no. This is a different Xtreme variant. The one showcased that time was Xtreme Sports, and it is scheduled to be launched later this year.

Two variants of new Hero Xtreme are on offer, one with front disc (240mm) brake and rear drum (130mm) brake, while the other with front (240mm) and rear disc (220mm) brakes. The latter is priced at Rs 70,678 (ex-showroom, Pune). Launched in one of the most competitive motorcycle segment, the new Hero Xtreme features the same engine aboard the CBZ Xtreme – 149.2cc, air-cooled, 4 stroke SOHC engine. Mated to a 4 speed manual transmission, this engine delivers 14.4 PS @ 8500 rpm and 12.80 Nm @ 6500 rpm.

Updates which are seen aboard the new Hero Xtreme include rear LED lights, new graphics, new headlights, new turn indicators, side stand indicator, alloy wheels as standard, under-seat mobile charger, wider rear tyre, engine immobilizer, dual tone silencer, and analogue+digital display.
