Hero MotoCorp has unveiled the new Hunk 440 SX motorcycle at EICMA 2025. The bike is a scrambler-inspired version built on Hero’s 440cc platform, giving a new adventurous twist to the already existing Hunk 440. The company has specially designed this bike for riders who want to have fun on city roads as well as off-road trails.

Engine and performance
First of all, its engine is given in this new Hunk 440 SX, a 440cc air and oil-cooled single-cylinder engine, which generates power of around 27bhp and torque of 36Nm. It has six-speed gearbox, which makes the gear shifting smooth and riding experience even better. Hero has paid special attention to mid-range performance in this bike to provide perfect balance in both city and highway rides.
Features
Hero has given many modern and high-tech features in this Scrambler bike which makes it even more special. Other features include ride-by-wire throttle, traction control, switchable ABS, and multiple ride modes. All these advanced systems assure the rider of both control and safety in all kinds of situations.
In addition, the bike features a digital TFT display that supports smartphone connectivity and turn-by-turn navigation. That is, there is no fear of going astray in a long ride.
Design
The Hero Hunk 440 SX is quite different from its road model Hunk 440 if it comes to looks. It has scrambler-style elements such as knobby tyres, raised exhaust, taller stance, and 18-inch front and 17-inch rear wheels. All of this gives the bike an off-road monster look.
Its design is not only in appearance but also in terms of riding comfort. High seats and wide handlebars provide excellent positioning during long rides.
Rival
If the Hero Hunk 440 SX is launched in India, it will directly compete with bikes like the Royal Enfield Guerilla 450, Triumph Scrambler 400X, and Husqvarna Svartpilen 401. All of these bikes already have a strong presence in the market, but Hero’s brand value and affordable pricing could make it a formidable competitor.
