Hold on a minute… photos taken before the launch of the new Splendor, which will have fantastic features and fresh hues.
The Hero Splendor, the nation’s top motorcycle, is set to get a new model soon. Actually, before the formal launch, images of the impending 2025 Splendor had already appeared on social media. Significant improvements have been made to the new model to enhance braking performance. This bike actually now features a front disc brake, which is anticipated to be a 240mm unit. When compared to the current drum brake configuration, this provides more stopping power. As a result, the Splendor Plus is now comparable to its XTEC disk version. It becomes more comfortable on all kinds of roads as a result.
For the new Splendor Plus, Hero has also unveiled additional color possibilities. Candy Red, which is evocative of models from the early 2000s, is also included. Fans will continue to feel more nostalgic as a result of this. In addition, the matte Axis Grey option will be offered, giving the lineup a more upscale appearance. The goal of these changes is to modernize the Splendor’s aesthetic appeal while keeping its well-liked commuter-friendly DNA.
There won’t be any mechanical adjustments. A 97.2 cc, air-cooled, single-cylinder engine producing 8.02 PS and 8.05 Nm of torque powers it. To guarantee improved pollution control, it is anticipated to adhere to the most recent OBD2B compliance standards. The suspension system maintains two rear shock absorbers and a telescopic front fork, providing a well-balanced ride.
Three trim levels of the Hero Splendor Plus are now offered, with ex-showroom prices starting at Rs 77,176 (Delhi). It is anticipated that the version with the new disc brakes will cost approximately Rs 80,000, making it the most feature-rich Splendor ever. With a starting price of Rs 59,880, the Splendor + competes with models such as the TVS Radeon. However, it is also a rival of the Bajaj Platina 100.
