Hero MotoCorp dealers have started taking bookings for the new Splendor iSmart.
This new Hero Splendor iSmart gets a body design similar to the Splendor NXG, with the option of four refreshing colours, Sport Red, Leaf Green, Excellent Blue and Heavy Grey. Apart from this, the bike gets an instrument cluster with analogue speedo, odo and fuel meter, followed by side stand, high beam, neutral and side indicator warning lights. Switch gear quality is decent with a start-stop button given on the right to manage the iSmart’s technology. Saddle on the iSmart gets red stitching to give it premium feel, with split grab rails.
The single cylinder, 97.2cc, air-cooled, four-stroke engine comes to life via a kick and electric starter, producing 7.7bhp of power at 7,500 rpm and 0.82kgm of torque at 4,500 rpm. Drum brakes along with tubeless tyres and black alloys are mounted onto the 100cc motorcycle to bring it to a halt, making it look good, doing so. The new Hero Splendor iSmart is now on sale for Rs 44,750 (ex-showroom, Pune), and bookings for this motorcycle have been initiated.
