Hero MotoCorp, a name that resonates with trust and reliability in every Indian household, has once again captured the spotlight with the launch of the new Hero Splendor 150cc Sport Edition. This isn’t just another bike, it is the coming together of the Splendor’s classic charm and the sporty look that today’s young riders want.
Designed to Dazzle
The Splendor 150cc Sport Edition has a bold and eye-catching design. It keeps the classic Splendor look but adds a sporty feel with its aggressive graphics and muscular fuel tank. The front gets a modern touch with a sharp headlamp and LED daytime running lights (DRLs).
It even gets a split seat design, blacked out alloy wheels, and dual-tone colors that add to its sporty look. It seems Hero has made this bike for the youth who want both practicality and style.
Power and Smoothness
Underneath its stylish exterior, the bike gets a 150cc air-cooled engine that makes around 13.5 bhp of power and 12 Nm of torque. This means the bike is not just for city rides, it can handle highways and longer journeys too. The engine is paired with a smooth 5-speed gearbox, making rides comfortable both in the city and on the open roads. To make the ride even smoother, it comes with telescopic front forks and adjustable rear suspension that can handle bumpy roads well, whether you are riding alone or with someone.
Amazing Mileage and Smart Features
Hero has made sure that even with a bigger engine, the Splendor 150cc Sport Edition offers great mileage, claiming more than 65 kmpl under normal riding conditions. This is thanks to Hero’s efficient engine and advanced fuel injection system, along with a light body frame. The bike also meets BS6 Phase 2 emission norms, which means it is good for the environment and helps save money on fuel.
Here are some features that make this bike stand out:
- Digital instrument cluster: Shows real time mileage, gear position, and trip details.
- Bluetooth connectivity: (In top models) Connects to your phone for call and SMS alerts.
- USB charging port: For charging your phone on the go.
- Side stand engine cut-off switch: Increases safety by preventing the bike from starting if the side stand is down.
- Front disc brake with CBS: Offers better and safer braking.
Price and Value for Money
The Hero Splendor 150cc Sport Edition starts at about ₹89,000 (ex-showroom) for the basic model, and the top model with all features costs around ₹99,000 (ex-showroom). This pricing makes it one of the most affordable 150cc bikes in India, considering the features, brand trust, and mileage it offers. It is a great option for those who want to upgrade from a 100cc bike without paying a very high price.
