      Hero Splendor 125cc New Black Colour Launch – First Look Walkaround

      by

      Super Splendor is the result of Hero’s effort of expanding the popular Splendor brand to offer with 125cc engine2022 Hero Splendor 125cc Matte Black LaunchedHero MotoCorp is currently the highest-selling motorcycle brand in India. Driving the sales for Hero is the ever-popular Splendor series of commuter motorcycles. Splendor brand is a force to reckon with as sales continue to ramp up almost every month. To incorporate a 125 cc engine with its popular Splendor range, Hero created the Super Splendor 125.This formula has boosted Splendor series sales even further as seen in our top 10 motorcycles post. Super Splendor only gets a 125 cc engine while Splendor Plus only gets a 100 cc engine and Splendor iSmart 110 gets only a 110 cc engine establishing a clear distinction between the three. But now the flagship of Splendor series has gotten a new variant.Hero Splendor 125cc New Black ColourThe largest motorcycle company in India, recently took to social media to announce a new variant of Super Splendor 125. According to the teaser, it would be “All Black”. That is exactly what Hero MotoCorp has delivered. All Black variants seem to be inspired by Canvas Black colour shade offered with Splendor Plus.Till now, Super Splendor was offered in five different colour shades. They were Glaze Black, Dusky Black, Nexus Blue, Heavy Grey, and CB Red. But both the black shades offered before were not monotone black. They had accent colours and a lot of graphics. As we know, Hero leans too much on graphics to spruce up their products. But always end up overdoing it.2022 Hero Splendor 125cc Black Colour LaunchedBut Splendor Plus gets Canvas Black shade that is devoid of any graphics and looks super clean. Looking at Hero Splendor 125cc New Black, Hero seems to have taken the same route too. This new All Black shade also looks super clean without any graphics. The only thing that breaks its black monotone is Super Splendor 3D badge on the fuel tank and Hero badge on the side body panels.This new All Black variant is offered in two different finishes. One is a regular Gloss Black finish and the other is a super stealth Matt Black finish that adds a lot of elegance to the Super Splendor. If it was our money, we’d definitely bet on the Matt Black option. Take a look at the walkaround video below, credited to R Rohit.[embedded content][embedded content]Specs & LaunchHero Super Splendor is powered by a 125cc BS6 compliant engine with XSens Technology. This engine develops 10.73 BHP of power at 7500 RPM and torque of 10.6 Nm @ 6000 RPM. This engine is paired with a 5-Speed Gearbox unlike a 4-speed unit on other Splendor branded bikes. This gearbox is said to be optimised for both city and highway riding.i3S tech makes sure that the daily commutes are eco-friendly and wallet-friendly too by enabling engine start/stop feature. Hero also allows users to turn off i3S if they find it obtrusive. Super Splendor chassis is a diamond frame with 180mm ground clearance and offers a long seat. It is offered in both Disc and Drum variants. The former gets a 240mm front Disc brake at front.Super Splendor gets a 130mm drum brake at the rear and CBS tech. It gets 18” wheels with a 90/90-18 tyre at the rear. It also gets a USB phone charger and an analog-digital instrument console. The new All Black variant prices are slightly more than the existing variants, which are priced from Rs 77k to Rs 81k, ex-sh. Currently, it competes with Honda CB Shine 125 and Hero’s own Glamour 125. More

      New Hero Scooter Spied For First Time – NTorq, RayZR 125cc Rival?

      by

      New Hero scooter is likely to be powered by the same 124.6cc engine found on Destini 125 and Maestro Edge 125 with i3S techNew Hero 125cc Scooter SpiedHero MotoCorp is currently the highest-selling two-wheeler brand in India. Hero Splendor is the highest-selling motorcycle in India as seen in our top 10 motorcycle list for the month of June 2022. Splendor alone sells more than second and third highest selling motorcycles combined and is expected to stay that way for a long time.But in the scooter market of India, Hero has not had such a grand monopoly. Because that cake is still in Honda’s kitchen where the Activa is brewed. If we look at top 10 scooter list for the month of June 2022, Activa alone sells more than second highest to ninth highest selling vehicles combined. This says a lot about the scooter market in India.New Hero 125cc Scooter – Sporty DesignHero has scooters in its portfolio that rival Honda Activa series. At the lower end of the spectrum, Hero has Pleasure which is a 110cc scooter and at the top tier, it has Destini 125 and Maestro Edge 125. But as sales figures indicate, both 125cc scooters from Hero are not in top 10.It is not that Hero’s 125cc engine doesn’t have any sauce: It does. It makes 9 bhp of power and 10.4 Nm of torque. This engine is also mated to Hero’s proprietary i3S technology which enables a stop/start feature improving fuel efficiency. It is the style, form factor and character that both the Destini 125 and Maestro Edge 125 lacked. That’s where the new sporty scooter comes into play.New Hero 125cc Scooter SpiedThanks to Shifting-Gears, a new Hero scooter has been spied under testing with heavy camouflage. This new scooter dons a much more sporty and edgy design than the current scooters on sale by Hero. It gets an LED headlight set up on the front fascia like NTorq, RayZR and Avenis instead of on the handlebar like Activa, Jupiter and Access. This gives it a sporty appeal and enhances looks further, is an interesting LED DRL pattern. It is likely to be powered by 125cc engine.New Hero Scooter – Features & LaunchIt also gets storage compartments below the instrument console like other Hero scooters and will also get USB phone charging too. This upcoming scooter gets a switchable i3S button on the right switch gear. At the rear, it gets an ‘X’ shaped LED tail-light and normal halogen turn indicators.Hero should have given a smoked effect to the tail-light cover as they did with Xtreme 160R making it look sportier. A glaring omission on this scooter according to us, is an external fuel filler cap which would drastically aid user comfort while refueling.New Hero 125cc Scooter SpiedSuspension setup is a normal telescopic unit at front and twin shockers at the rear. Hero 125cc sporty scooter might get 12” wheels that are machine cut alloys in this top-spec trim along with a front disc brake too. We can expect steel wheels and drum brakes with lower variants. We also expect Hero to give the XTec system on this scooter too. The instrumentation screen is new which is a rectangular fully-digital LCD panel with expected features like trip meters, odometer, clock, fuel-level indicator and Bluetooth connectivity with notifications and turn-by-turn navigation.Hero MotoCorp has not revealed any details about this upcoming scooter yet. But it could be launched around the festive season and is likely to be priced on par with Maestro Edge. When launched, this sporty 125cc scooter will compete with other sporty scooters like TVS NTorq, Honda Grazia, Suzuki Avenis, and Yamaha RayZR. Of these, Ntorq, Avenis, RayZR regularly feature in the top 10 selling scooter list. Hero would be aiming to eat into their share with this new 125cc scooter.Source More

      Hero Xpulse 200 4V Rally Kit Launch Price Rs 46k – Specs Detailed

      by

      Hero MotoCorp has launched Rally Edition with factory fitted Rally Kit on Xuplse 200 4V2022 Hero Xpulse 200 4V Rally Edition LaunchedAfter the Impulse, Hero returned to the genre with XPulse 200 which was a sequel to the company’s adventure-tourer saga. It was designed as an off-roader first and then given some touring capabilities. Hence, it was not a fast cruiser. This was worked on in the BS6 model and bettered even further with the launch of XPulse 200 4V.Hero MotoCorp has unveiled the Rally Edition at an event recently. In the past, Hero tried to give a taste of a proper rally bike on its XPulse adventure tourer in the form of a Rally Kit for Rs. 38,000. It had fully-adjustable front and rear suspension with longer travel, 5mm more ground clearance, hence a longer stand, handle-bar risers, rally-spec seat and rally-spec Maxxis knobby tyres.2022 Hero XPulse Rally EditionFront suspension had 30-click compression settings and 30-click rebound settings. The front suspension can now travel up to 250mm which is 60mm more than stock. The rear suspension gets adjustability in terms of rebound and preload and can travel 220mm which is 50mm more than stock.For reference, its closest rival Royal Enfield Himalayan gets 200mm suspension travel at front and 180mm at the rear. The new Rally kit, however, adds preload adjustability with cartridge-style forks at front and takes the ground clearance to a whopping 275mm.2022 Hero Xpulse 200 4V Rally Edition LaunchedRally Edition which is expected to launch soon is believed to get further upgrades, but straight out of the factory. For starters, Rally Edition will be a slightly larger motorcycle than the XPulse 200 4V with a rally kit. Rally Edition will get a longer wheelbase of 1427mm which is 17mm longer than the stock bike and 8mm longer than XPulse 200 with Rally Kit. With a long wheelbase, we also get 33mm greater overall length and 62mm greater overall height than stock XPulse 200 4V.In terms of design, Rally Edition gets a slightly reworked fuel tank with red and gold accents which make the bike look more handsome. Another notable aspect is that Rally Edition doesn’t get the rally-spec seat offered with Rally Kit. Hero XPulse 200 Rally Edition is expected to be a lot more capable than the stock bike and also its main competitor Himalayan.New Rally Kit & PriceThe new Rally Kit that will be sold is an upgrade over the old kit. It gets better components seeking out more capability. This new Rally Kit is for all existing XPulse 200 owners and for those who want to buy the stock bike now and maybe upgrade it later as they start to crave more off-road ability. While Rally Edition will be kitted out right from the factory.2022 Hero Xpulse 200 4V Rally Edition LaunchedNew Rally Kit is priced at Rs. 46,000. XPulse 200 4V is priced at Rs. 1,35,978 (ex-sh, Delhi) and will cost around Rs. 1.82 lakh (ex-sh) for the stock bike along with this kit. We expect Rally Edition to be priced around Rs. 1.55 lakh to 1.65 lakh (ex-sh).With Rally Kit, customers have to buy these upgraded components on top of stock components that came with the stock bike. Hence the added cost whereas with a Rally Edition, Hero will “replace” the stock parts with upgraded rally-spec parts right from the factory.Hero MotoCorp will launch both Rally Kit and XPulse 200 Rally Edition very soon. When launched, it will compete with Royal Enfield Himalayan and Yezdi Adventure. In terms of pricing, it will compete with a lot of other motorcycles including pseudo-adventure-tourers like Honda CB200X. More

      Hero Vida Electric Scooter Can Use HERO Branding – Hero Moto Vs Hero Electric

      by

      Hero MotoCorp and Hero Electric are two separate companies – Both are involved in a legal battleImage for reference.It may be recalled that Hero Electric had sought an injunction against Hero MotoCorp from use of the trademark ‘Hero’ for its electric vehicles. The issue was referred to the Delhi High Court last year by Vijay Munjal, along with his son Naveen Munjal, who owns Hero Electric, the largest electric two-wheeler company.This legal battle was against his cousin Pawan Munjal, Promoter and Chairman of Hero MotoCorp, claiming that the company had exclusive ownership rights of the ‘Hero’ brand for its upcoming lineup of its electric and eco-friendly products. In a recent ruling by the Delhi High Court, Hero MotoCorp has been granted permission to use the ‘Hero ’trademark for selling its electric vehicle lineup.Hero Moto Vs Hero Electric – RulingThe tribunal, which consisted of former Chief Justice of India Dipak Misra and retired judges Indu Malhotra and Indermeet Kaur observed that Hero MotoCorp had claimed the use of ‘Hero’ for its upcoming electric vehicle lineup since 2012. The company is now close to launch of its electric vehicles under brand name ‘Vida – powered by Hero’.Hero MotoCorp’s Vida brand will house all electric vehicle initiatives and the company has even filed a patent for names such as Vida, Vida MotoCorp, Vida EV, Vida Electric, Vida Scooters and Vida Motorcycles for its EV endeavor.Hero Electric Scooter Optima HXThe Tribunal took into account the fact that Hero MotoCorp had spent over Rs 7,000 crores to enhance goodwill and gain reputation of the ‘Hero’ brand over the past 10 years as compared to Rs 65 crores which had been invested by the Naveen Munjal Group to promote ‘Hero Electric’.The Tribunal also noted that Hero MotoCorp had also made hefty investments to the tune of Rs 400 crores into their VIDA project along with investments made in Ather Energy, the Bengaluru based company for its fast charging technology. Hero owns 38 percent in this company and both firms are developing fast charging infrastructure.Good News For Hero MotoCorpThis ruling will boost Hero MotoCorp’s confidence, ahead of the launch of their first electric scooter later this year. Imagine if Hero Moto had to sell their electric scooters without the brand Hero or their existing dealership network. That would have been a nightmare for the No 1 motorcycle brand in the world.Hero MotoCorp Electric Scooter – Under VIDA BrandAs much as this is good news for Hero MotoCorp, it is bad news for Hero Electric, who is one of the leading electric scooter manufacturer in India. By default, most in the country mean Hero MotoCorp, when they refer to a Hero vehicle. Even today, there are people who think Hero Electric and Hero MotoCorp are the same company.If the arrival of new EV rivals like Ola, Ather was not enough, they will have a new problem at hand once Hero MotoCorp launches their range of Hero Vida electric scooters and motorcycles. Hero MotoCorp was scheduled to launch their first electric scooter in July. But parts shortage has forced them to delay the launch to later this year. More
