New Features for 2024
The 2024 Hero Xtreme 160R 4V introduces a striking black and bronze paint scheme, complete with refreshed body graphics. A major improvement is the addition of dual-channel ABS, enhancing safety during rides. Previously, the bike only had a single-channel ABS, a feature many riders felt needed an upgrade.
Another exciting addition is the Panic Brake Alert system, a segment-first feature that flashes the rear lights during emergency braking. The bike also includes a redesigned pillion seat for improved comfort and switches back to a single-seat setup instead of the split seats from the previous model. Additionally, the new model comes with a drag timer for 0-60 kmph and 0-402 meter sprints.
