The Hero Xtreme 160R 2025 is almost ready to hit showrooms in India. The new version has already reached Hero dealerships, and an official launch announcement is expected soon. Hero MotoCorp is gearing up to make a strong comeback in the 160cc streetfighter motorcycle segment with significant design and feature upgrades over the previous model.
The upcoming Hero Xtreme 160R gets a bolder and more muscular appearance, taking inspiration from the Xtreme 250R. The redesigned LED headlight unit and updated console give it a more aggressive stance. The new grey paint scheme with bold graphics adds a premium touch that enhances its street presence.
The updated daylight console and improved headlight setup provide a more modern, futuristic look while maintaining Hero’s signature compact streetfighter appeal.
Hero has equipped the new Xtreme 160R with several advanced features to match modern rider expectations.
Key features include
Ride-by-Wire throttle control for better response
Cruise Control for relaxed highway rides
Fully digital LCD console with Bluetooth connectivity
Multiple ride modes for different riding conditions
Dual-channel ABS for enhanced braking safety
Type-A charging port for mobile devices
These upgrades make the 2025 Xtreme 160R one of the most feature-rich bikes in its segment, appealing to riders who value both performance and convenience.
The Xtreme 160R 2025 retains its proven 163.2cc single-cylinder, 4-valve, oil-cooled, fuel-injected engine. It delivers 16.6 bhp of power and 14.6 Nm of torque, paired with a smooth 6-speed gearbox.
While the engine architecture remains the same, Hero has fine-tuned it for improved throttle response and better mid-range torque. The result is a more refined and responsive riding experience, perfect for both city commutes and weekend getaways.
The Xtreme 160R continues to be one of the lightest and most agile bikes in its class. The bike’s chassis has been engineered for balance and stability, giving riders more confidence in corners and heavy traffic.
With its upright riding posture, monoshock rear suspension, and wide tires, it delivers a mix of comfort and control. The inclusion of dual-channel ABS further enhances braking precision, making it a dependable performer in all conditions.
Hero MotoCorp is expected to officially unveil the Xtreme 160R 2025 soon in India, with a regional launch to follow. The motorcycle is likely to be priced around INR 1.35 lakh (ex-showroom).
This places it in direct competition with other popular models like the TVS Apache RTR 160 4V, Yamaha FZ-S Fi, and Bajaj Pulsar N160.
The Hero Xtreme 160R 2025 is shaping up to be one of the most exciting bikes in the 160cc segment. With its modern design, upgraded tech, and refined engine, it promises a perfect balance of style and performance. Hero’s focus on rider comfort and innovation ensures that this model will stand out among its rivals.
The Xtreme 160R is no longer just another commuter bike, it’s a statement of attitude and performance for riders who want more from every ride.
