Hero Xpulse 200 4V Rally Edition Details Leaked
The type-approval certificate of the Hero Xpulse 200 4V Rally Edition has been leaked online and reveals various information regarding the upcoming motorcycle.
When launched, the Hero Xpulse 200 4V Rally Edition will be the range-topping variant in the Hero Xpulse range of motorcycles.
Earlier, Hero MotoCorp had introduced the Rally Kit for the Hero Xpulse 200 4V motorcycle and this special kit at the time of launch was priced at Rs 46,000. This kit adds a few extra bits to make the motorcycle far more off-road worth.
The Rally Kit includes upgrades such as Maxxis off-road tyres, rally-tuned suspension at both front and back, a flat and tall rally-style bench seat, handlebar risers, a longer side stand, and an extended gear pedal.
Thanks to these extensive modifications as part of the Rally Kit, the ground clearance of the Hero Xpulse 200 4V now stands at 275mm.
We expect, similar modifications to be present in the upcoming Hero Xpulse 200 4V Rally Edition. However, a few of the above parts such as the Maxxis off-road tyres could be reserved as 'kits'.
According to the leaked documents, the upcoming Hero Xpulse 200 4V measures 2,255mm long, 850mm tall, and sports a wheelbase of 1,427mm.
Speaking about the Hero Xpulse 200 4V, the bike has become a default choice for many youths in the country who aspire to become a motocross rider. Also, the Hero Xpulse 200 4V puts out 6% more power and 5% more torque compared to the Hero Xpulse 200 2V by producing 18.83bhp of peak power and 17.35Nm of peak torque.
In comparison, the Hero Xpulse 200 puts out just 17bhp of peak power and 16.45Nm of peak torque from its 199.6cc, single-cylinder, two-valve engine.
In terms of hardware, the standard Hero Xpulse 200 4V comes with a 7-fin oil cooler for better heat management and an updated transmission with optimised gear ratios that suit the characteristics of the new engine.
Adding to the list of changes is the new improved LED headlights for better visibility at night. In addition to that, the new Hero Xpulse 200 4V comes with a fully digital instrument cluster with smartphone connectivity, Turn-by-Turn navigation, a gear position indicator, Eco Mode, two Trip meters and a single-channel ABS.
In terms of suspension, the Hero Xpulse 4V gets a pair of 37mm telescopic front suspension with 190mm travel and a 10-step pre-load adjustable rear mono-shock with 170mm wheel travel. Apart from this, the Hero Xpulse 200 4V sports a 276mm petal disc brake at the front and a 220mm petal disc brake at the rear.
At present, the new Hero Xpulse 200 4V is priced at Rs 1.32 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi), whereas the Hero Xpulse 200 is priced from Rs 1.23 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi).
Thoughts About Hero Xpulse 200 4V Rally Edition
The Hero Xpulse 200 4V Rally Edition will make the Hero Xpulse 200 4V an even better motorcycle with better off-road performance compared to the standard variants of the motorcycle.
