The adventure bike segment is one of the most sought-after, and in 2025, there should be another model on the market – at least in India. It’s the Hero XPulse 400, which was recently «spied» during tests.
According to the Motor Octane website, spy shots indicate the development of two XPulse 400 variants – one is an adventure bike with spoke wheels, and the other is a sports tourer with alloy wheels.
It is expected that the engine will be the 400cc liquid-cooled unit that already equips the Hero Mavrick, delivering more than 40 hp of power and paired with a six-speed gearbox.
From the shared image, it is clear that the XPulse being tested incorporates Hero’s rally experience. It appears to have a conventional telescopic fork, a large front fender, and is also equipped with rear luggage panniers. It is not expected that the bike will be launched before the end of this year.
