At an event in Delhi just ahead of the Auto Expo 2014, India’s largest two-wheeler manufacturer Hero MotoCorp has given us a peak into their future plans, and we are very excited about it. The company launched the new CBZ Xtreme Sports bike but also showcased 4 innovative concepts which we will explain in detail.
Hero MotoCorp HX250R
This is the most exciting concept we saw and it is surely the future of Hero. Featuring a slim agile seating position, high-tech engine and world class sport chassis, the Hero HX250R has all the attributes to deliver the perfect light weight sports bike experience. With its high performance liquid-cooled balanced engine and advanced multi-sensor electronic fuelling, the HX250Rcan deliver best-in-class performance. It comes with a 6-speed transmission and can deliver 31bhp and weighs only 139kg.
Hero MotoCorp RNT
This is a rather funny looking motorcycle but it comes with some really interesting innovations te most impressive of which is the two-wheel drive system. It also has a 150 TDi diesel engine as well as an electric motor.
Hero MotoCorp LEAP
Powered by lithium-ion batteries and an 8kW electric traction motor, the Leap eliminates the limited range of an electric vehicle by incorporating “arange extender – anon-board generator set” powered by an extremely efficient all new 124cc engine.
Pawan Munjal Managing Director & CEO Hero MotoCorp said, “This is the dawn of a new era, indeed a significant milestone in the exciting journey that we set out on a little over two years ago. We had then promised to bring a range of all-new products and innovations that will unlock a New Age of technologically superior and youth-focused two-wheelers. Today, we are living up to that commitment by unveiling the first of our own product range on completely new platforms, developed by our diversified pool of human talent with the power of game-changing breakthrough technologies, intellectual creativity and innovations.”
