Hero Karizma XMR 250 Vs 210: What Are The Changes?

Shown at the EICMA show, Hero is now readying the more potent Karizma XMR 250 for launch in India. Having had recent launches, the new XMR 250 will have a 250cc single cylinder engine which would develop 30bhp and 25Nm.

With a six-speed gearbox, this is essentially the same unit found on the new Xtreme 250R. Design wise, it is quite an aggressive looking design with a split LED headlamp, winglets and more.

The powertrain comes from the new Karizma and it will do 0-60 km/h in 3.25 seconds. The fully faired design is lending it a sporty look while how much it will remain a comfortable bike for daily use remains to be seen.

In terms of the competition, the main rival for the Karizma XMR 250 would be the Suzuki Gixxer SF 250. The launch for this sporty motorcycle would be at the end of May or early June.
