SCOOP: Hero Karizma 250 spy shot
It is for sure that Hero is working on a new version of its Karizma ZMR which is believed to be a 250cc Bike.
The Bike was recently spotted by Autocar India & Gaadi.com members.In those pictures, the Bike is covered with a blue cloth skin & not much is visible in the Bike.
The Bike was seen near Gurgaon & Hero could be testing their new ZMR in order to unveil it at the 2014 Auto Expo in Delhi.
The changes which we can see are the new Exhaust on the Bike.There is also a split seat as against a single seat while the rear end has been raised for no apparent reason resulting in a change in riding position.
Rear tyres are also larger while the ZMR sports twin shock absorbers. Where engine is concerned,Hero MotoCorp is expected to give the ZMR250 a Honda 250cc engine which is also seen on the CBR250R offering the same 25 bhp and 22 Nm torque.
Autocar states that Hero is playing their cards pretty close to their chest at the moment, hence
no indication of the price. A reasonable expectation of the launch date could be somewhere near the festive season.
Hero could not make the ZMR a good seller in the market but they may improve their product so that it could appeal to the youth.
Gaadi.com also claims that the test riders were wearing Hero-branded garments. The test riders did manage to clock up good speeds on their bikes, and even refrained the spotters from clicking footage. If Hero is en route to introducing a Karizma ZMR 250, it definitely augurs well for our market as well as Hero Motocorp itself.
