Hero MotoCorp is making ways to broaden its product portfolio in India. The biggest two-wheeler manufacturer has revealed the all-new combat edition of the Hero Xtreme 160R 4V. This new edition brings a host of advanced features, including ride-by-wire throttle and cruise control, making it the first bike in its class to offer such technology. The Combat Edition also debuts a fresh design language and a new color scheme, setting it apart from the standard model and its rivals.

The Xtreme 160R 4V Combat Edition is positioned as a premium offering, targeting young riders who seek both style and cutting-edge features. Let’s check out what possible updates this bike offers compared to the standard version.

Subtle Design Changes

For the 2025 Combat Edition, the Xtreme 160R 4V offers a sharper LED headlight setup inspired by the bigger Xtreme 250R, giving it a more aggressive and premium look. With the new improvisation of the front fascia, the brand also offers a dual-tone paint scheme of light grey and neon yellow for the Xtreme 160 4V.

The instrument console is upgraded to a color LCD unit, similar to the Hero Glamour X 125 and Xtreme 250R, displaying speed, fuel level, time, gear position, tachometer, odometer, and twin tripmeters.

Advanced Tech Features

The biggest highlight of the Combat Edition is its ride-by-wire throttle system, which unlocks cruise control and three selectable riding modes: Rain, Road, and Sport. These modes allow riders to adapt the bike’s performance to different conditions, enhancing versatility and safety. The cruise control system is designed to reduce rider fatigue during long highway rides.
