The output has taken a minor hit in the process of achieving the latest emission standards. For the record, previously in the BS 4 avatar, the engine used to churn out 18.1 PS at 8,000 rpm and 17.1 Nm at 6,500 rpm. Moreover, another change on the engine includes oil-cooling, since previously it was a water-cooled unit.

In order to achieve the latest BS 6 standards, the bike received a rerouted exhaust to fit a sizable catalytic converter and a new bigger bash plate. Save for these mechanical updates, the bike more or less, remains the same.
As far as the pricing goes, the Hero Xpulse 200 BS 6 will be a slightly costlier offering against the previous model which retailed at ₹1.06 lakh (ex-showroom). The updated model could start well over ₹1.10 lakh price tag.
