The Xpulse 421 will be the biggest adventure bike from the brand; the motorcycle has been spied already in Ladakh - it has given us a clear look at almost everything the bike will be equipped with.
In terms of looks, the brand has already patented the Xpulse 421 design. The bike looks nothing like the current Xpulse range. Rather, it looks more adventure ready, and quite big.
The ADV is expected to be powered by an all-new 421cc liquid-cooled single-cylinder engine, however its output is yet uncertain. Though, we can expect it to be much more capable in touring and for the roads less travelled than its smaller sibling, the Xpulse 210.
The 421's underpinnings include a 21-inch front and a 17-inch rear spoke wheel setup and could be wrapped with Metzeler Tourance dual-purpose tyres. It gets a non-adjustable fork and a rear monoshock, though there could be different variants with adjustable suspension.
The feature list should include all-led lighting, a large TFT display with connectivity and navigation. It should come with smartphone connectivity, call/SMS alerts and turn-by-turn navigation. Other expected bits are a ride-by-wire throttle, quickshifter, traction control, dual-channel ABS, and ride modes.
Hero Xpulse 421 India Launch
Hero MotoCorp could finally unveil the Xpulse 421 at EICMA 2026, early next month. India launch could happen sometime in 2027, and be priced at around Rs 2.85 lakh (ex-showroom). When launched, the Xpulse 421 will rival the likes of the Royal Enfield Himalayan 450 and the KTM 390 Adventure. Though, how it will fare against them remains to be seen, at least until its full specifications are out.
