Starting with the cosmetics, the Xtreme 160R Combat Edition appears to adopt the same matte grey colour scheme as the Xoom 110 & Karizma Combat Editions that came before it, complemented by yellow contrasting graphics. Other differentiators over the standard 160R look to be a new headlamp - similar to the unit on the 250R, replete with the ‘H’ pattern DRL and projector element, and a new coloured digital instrument cluster.

The switchgear, too, looks to be updated, though we can’t get a clear look at any feature updates. It however, remains to be seen if the feature updates will be rolled out to the rest of the Xtreme 160R series or be limited to the Combat Edition.
