Undisguised Hero Impulse 160 May Join Xpulse Lineup

Hero MotoCorp may be preparing a smaller adventure motorcycle.

The bike could be called the Hero Impulse 160.

Photos show it without the coverings usually used to hide new vehicles.

The pictures were reportedly taken on a factory floor and shared online.

They appeared on September 12.

Test motorcycles had also been seen on roads in May 2025.

A design patent for the bike reportedly appeared last month.

The motorcycle could give Hero an off-road model below the Xpulse 200.

Hero is also working on a larger and more expensive Xpulse 421.
