Hero Xpulse 210 Design and Build
The Xpulse 210 carries a rugged design language that reflects its off-road focus. The bike stands tall with 220mm of ground clearance, a raised front fender, and thick cladding around the body. The upright stance, long-travel suspension, and 830mm seat height give riders a commanding position, making it suitable for both city streets and rough terrains.
The LED headlamp with integrated DRLs adds a modern touch, while the digital LCD instrument cluster offers a premium feel. Hero has also included a USB charging port, ensuring devices stay powered on long rides.
Hero Xpulse 210 Engine and Performance
Powering the Xpulse 210 is a 210cc single-cylinder engine that produces 24.2 bhp at 9,250 rpm and 20.7 Nm of torque at 7,250 rpm. Paired with a responsive throttle, the engine is tuned to handle both urban commutes and adventurous trails. The bike is fitted with switchable ABS, allowing riders to disengage rear ABS for better control on dirt tracks.
Suspension duties are handled by telescopic forks at the front with 210mm travel and a rear monoshock with 205mm travel. This setup, combined with 276mm front disc brakes, ensures stability and confidence on varied surfaces.
