Hero Follows Others; Xtreme 160R Price Increased by Rs 2000

New Hero Xtreme 160R latest prices (after the hike) are now slightly over the most affordable motorcycle in this sub-segment…

Hero MotoCorp appears to have finally hit the bulls-eye in the 150cc motorcycle segment with the Xtreme 160R. Despite trying out many different motorcycles, the country’s largest seller was never a prominent seller in this space.

The Xtreme 160R has got the looks, styling and specs (on paper) to ensure bikers consider it when they are out there for a premium 150cc. Hero topped it up with pretty good launch pricing and in fact, it was the most affordable premium motorcycle in its sub-segment till now.

However, like others, Hero has also increased the prices of Xtreme 160R and here are the latest prices…
