Powering both the bikes is an air-cooled, 200cc, single-cylinder engine with 2-valve head. This powerplant makes 18.1bhp at 8000rpm and 17.1Nm torque at 6500rpm. The engine is mated to a 5-speed gearbox with a claimed top speed of 114 kmph. The performance might feel less for a 200cc motorcycle but it actually better than the rest of the 150-160cc bikes in the same price range.

We might see a price hike of newly launched XPulse 200 bikes, but we are still not clear about them. Increased manufacturing cost and raw material cost has been blamed for this hike in the prices.
