Which is faster 4-stroke 250 or 2-stroke?
A modern 250 4 stroke will be faster than a 125 2 stroke 9 times out of 10. It has almost twice the low-end torque, making it easier to ride, and the peak horsepower is close to the same.
What is faster 2-stroke or 4-stroke?
As far as efficiency goes, the 4-stroke certainly wins. This is due to the fact that fuel is consumed once every 4 strokes. Because 2-stroke engines are designed to run at a higher RPM, they also tend to wear out faster; a 4-stroke engine is generally more durable. That being said, 2-stroke engines are more powerful.

Which 250 4-stroke has the most horsepower?
KX250 engine
The KX250 engine offers the most peak horsepower of any 250 four-stroke for 2020. Quite the turnaround—as the KX250 had the least peak ponies in 2019; however, Kawasaki traded its good low-to-mid power for high-rpm peak power.
