Hero MotoCorp has introduced new models and color variations within its motorcycle lineup in India.

In mid-October, the company launched the 2026 Xtreme 250R Carbon and the 2026 Xtreme 160R 4V. The Xtreme 250R Carbon features a 250cc liquid-cooled engine, ride-by-wire technology, cruise control, and multiple riding modes. The Xtreme 160R 4V is offered in Standard, Pro, and Carbon variants, with higher-spec models including a full-colour TFT console and connectivity features.

By late October, sightings of the Karizma XMR 250 at an Indian dealership revealed a new red-dominant color scheme. This model, which features a 250cc engine and a TFT instrument console, is expected to launch in both Indian and international markets in the coming months.
