WE SAY: HERO’S TAKE ON A TOURER, BUT WORKS BETTER IN THE CITY
94,000 (ex-showroom, Delhi)
You’ve possibly seen the internet light up with news of the XPulse 200 - the enduro style motorcycle that Hero debuted a couple of days back. Lurking in the shadows is this, the XPulse 200T. While the enthusiastic crowd, much like myself, is going on about the 200, here is a version that is likely to find a fan following of its own.
The T stands for ‘tour’ and it is a bit of a mish-mash between the Xtreme 200R and the XPulse. This may seem slightly odd, but motorcycle, and car manufacturers alike, do this sort of thing all the time to make sure all that investment in a new platform yields returns. And with a carburettor version on sale for 94,000, the 200T is the cheapest of the three new versions, including the 200S, available.
