First Impressions – Stylish and Modern

The Xpulse 200T comes with a round LED headlight, alloy wheels, and a digital meter with Bluetooth navigation. These small touches make it feel premium for its segment. The riding position is upright, the seat is low, and the handlebar is wide – which means even beginners can feel confident while riding.

Performance on the Road

The bike runs on a 200cc single-cylinder engine. In the city, it feels smooth and easy to ride. You can zip through traffic without much effort.

But on highways, things change. Once you cross 90 km/h, the bike starts to vibrate, and by 100 km/h it feels like the engine is pushing too hard. This makes long, high-speed rides a bit tiring.

Comfort for Long Rides

For short trips, the bike is fine. The seat is soft enough, and the riding posture doesn’t hurt your back. But if you ride for hours on rough roads, the suspension feels stiff, and the seat starts to get uncomfortable.

So, while it is marketed as a “tourer,” it is more suitable for weekend rides and city commuting rather than serious cross-country trips.

Mileage That Saves Money

In real-world use, the mileage is around 35–42 km/l, depending on how you ride. With a 13-litre fuel tank, you can expect a range of over 400 km, which is decent for road trips without too many fuel stops.
