EICMA 2024: New Hero Karizma XMR 250 Unveiled With New Styling, More Power .

Hero Karizma XMR 250 Styling

The new Hero Karizma XMR 250 sports sharper lines and a more aggressive fairing than its predecessor, the Karizma XMR 210. The front showcases new signature design elements, particularly the innovative LED DRL design. The front fairing integrates winglets just below the headlamp, enhancing the motorcycle’s sporty aesthetic. This sharp styling extends to the side fairing and air vents, effectively directing air away from the rider and promoting better heat dissipation.

Hero Karizma XMR 250: Engine

At the heart of the Hero Karizma XMR 250 is a newly developed 250 cc single-cylinder, liquid-cooled, four-valve, DOHC engine that delivers 29.5 bhp and 25 Nm of torque, paired with a 6-speed gearbox. The motorcycle features a trellis frame with USD forks at the front and a monoshock at the rear, while braking performance is ensured by disc brakes at both ends. Additional features include switchable dual-channel ABS, a TFT instrument console, a height-adjustable clip-on handlebar, a lap timer, and a drag timer for performance tracking. It rides on 17-inch alloy wheels at both ends.

Hero Karizma XMR 250 India Launch

While Hero MotoCorp has yet to confirm the launch timeline for the new Karizma 250, it is anticipated to join the XMR family by 2025. The pricing is expected to be competitive, positioning it against other 250 cc motorcycles like the Suzuki Gixxer SF 250, Husqvarna Vitpilen 250, and Bajaj Pulsar F250. In addition to the Karizma 250, Hero also unveiled the new XPulse 210, Xtreme 250R, and Vida Z at EICMA 2024.
