Hero MotoCorp has announced the launch of the 2021 Hero XPulse 200 4V at Rs 1.28 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi). The 4V in its name is meant to signify the big change the new XPulse brings with itself, which is the updated engine that now comes with 4 Valves.
The 2021 Hero XPulse 200 4V is equipped with a BS-VI emission norm compliant 200cc 4 Valve oil-cooled engine that offers 6% more power and 5% added more torque. It now has a power output of 19.1 PS at 8500 rpm and has a torque output of 17.35 Nm at 6500 rpm. The 4 Valve oil-cooled engine claims to provide better power across the mid and top-end speed range and also less stress in terms of engine performance at high speeds thanks to having lesser vibrations. For better heat management in heavy traffic, Hero MotoCorp says that the cooling system is now updated with a 7 fin oil cooler. The transmission setup is also claimed to be significantly improved in the XPulse 200 4V with better strength and durability and an updated gear ratio which now, as per claims, results in better tractive effort and acceleration.
