Anticipated Debut of Hero XPulse 421 in India Scheduled for Mid-2025
The motorcycle world is abuzz with anticipation as Hero MotoCorp, India's largest two-wheeler manufacturer, is set to introduce the Hero XPulse 421. This new addition to the XPulse family is expected to make its debut at the 2024 EICMA motorcycle show, and is likely to hit Indian roads by mid-2025 at the earliest.
The Hero XPulse 421 boasts a sleek design that stands out in the ADV (Adventure Touring) segment, with good style cues that are sure to turn heads. The bike features an all-new trellis frame, spoke wheels, and dual-purpose tyres, making it a versatile choice for both city commutes and off-road adventures.
Under the hood, the XPulse 421 is equipped with a 420 cc, single-cylinder liquid-cooled engine, expected to deliver around 43 to 45 bhp. The bike rests on a USD fork and a monoshock unit, offering long travel suspension for a smooth ride.
While the adjustability of the suspension on the XPulse 421 is yet to be confirmed, it is clear that this bike is almost production-ready and will be directly launched next year. The expected price of the XPulse 421 is around ₹3 lakh (ex-showroom).
The Hero XPulse 421 will face stiff competition in the market, with the 2025 KTM 390 Adventure R and the Royal Enfield Himalayan 450 as its main rivals. However, with its unique design language, superior performance, and competitive pricing, the XPulse 421 is poised to make a significant impact in the ADV segment.
The development, testing phases, and aligning the launch with market readiness and regulatory approvals are currently underway, ensuring that the XPulse 421 is a well-rounded and reliable machine for its customers. Stay tuned for more updates on this exciting new addition to the Hero MotoCorp lineup.
