Hero Karizma XMR 250, Xtreme 250R unveiled at EICMA 2024

The Karizma XMR 250 and Xtreme 250R is powered by an all-new 250cc, liquid-cooled, single-cylinder engine.

Hero MotoCorp has unveiled two new 250cc bikes at EICMA 2024. These include the Karizma XMR 250 and its naked version, the Xtreme 250R.

The Karizma XMR 250 and Xtreme 250R share the same underpinnings and are based on a trellis frame. Both bikes are powered by an all-new 250cc liquid-cooled single-cylinder engine that produces 30 BHP and 25 Nm.

The new engine is derived from the current 210cc unit. To achieve the higher displacement, Hero engineers increased the stroke by 7 mm. It also gets a new crankcase.

The overall styling of the Karizma XMR 250 looks familiar with its full fairing. It features an LED headlamp with new aero winglets on either side and a windscreen. The bike has a stepped seat and sporty graphics all around.

The Xtreme 250R also looks quite sporty in its streetfighter avatar. The bike has a sharp LED headlamp with a digital instrument console on top, aggressive tank shrouds and a stepped seat. Both bikes get USD forks in the front with a mono-shock at the rear, disc brakes and alloy wheels.
