All-new Hero Karizma XMR unveiled ahead of launch

The 2023 Hero Karizma XMR is expected to rival the likes of the Bajaj Pulsar 250 and Gixxer 250.

Hero MotoCorp has taken the wraps off the next-generation Karizma ZMR. The new bike, called the XMR, was revealed at a recently concluded dealer event.

According to reports, the Karizma XMR will be based on a new platform powered by a 210cc liquid-cooled engine paired with a 6-speed gearbox. While detailed specs haven't been released, we can expect it to develop around 25 BHP.

Now coming to the styling, the Karizma Z\XMR features a sporty fairing with sleek headlamps, a two-piece seat, a dual-tone fuel tank and a narrow tail section. It is likely to get a digital instrument console with Bluetooth connectivity, among other features.

The Karizma XMR rides on stylish alloy wheels and has disc brakes at both ends. It features conventional telescopic suspension at the front instead of an upside-down fork and a monoshock at the rear.

The Karizma XMR is expected to be launched later this year. It will compete with the likes of the Bajaj Pulsar 250 and Gixxer 250 in the Indian market.
