Hero MotoCorp, the country's largest two-wheeler manufacturer, is believed to be working towards the launch of its new product Passion X-Pro 110 motorcycle in the Indian market somewhere around upcoming Diwali festivities. Further, it has been reported that the company has already started dispatching the Passion X-Pro 110 units to its dealerships and retail outlets situated across the country. The price is expected to play a dominant role, while the auspicious Diwali period could spell wonders for the company in recording more than decent sales as well. Top industry experts have capped the upcoming Passion X-Pro 110 motorcycle with a tentative price close to Rs. 40,000.
The entry-level two-wheeler segment of the Indian two-wheeler market is consumed with some cut throat competition and features several best sellers, such as Suzuki Hayate and Bajaj Discover. The upcoming Hero MotoCorp's Passion X-Pro 110 motorcycle is believed to carrying the company's baton in the segment, besides capable of posing some stiff competition against the likes of Suzuki Hayate, Honda Dream Yuga, Bajaj Discover and Honda CB Twister in the domestic front.
At a recently concluded press conference, regarding the yet-to-be launched Passion X-Pro 110, Hero MotoCorp said, “The company is selling close to 26,000 vehicles per day during the ongoing Navratri festive season. The company has begun dispatches of new 110 cc Passion X-pro and expects it to be available by Diwali. Also, 125 cc segment (Super Splendour, Glamour and new Ignitor) is witnessing strong demand. In case of scooters, Maestro sales are also going up.”
Reportedly, the Hero MotoCorp's latest motorcycle Passion X-Pro 110 comes fitted with the same 110 cc power-mill of the Honda Dream Yuga 110 and CB Twister commuter two-wheelers. The Indian two-wheeler heavy weight has tied up with the Japanese auto maker Honda Motor Co., for providing the engines to be used in its new Passion X-Pro 115 motorcycle.
Further, the latest offering coming from the stables of Hero MotoCorp, the Passion X-Pro 110 commuter motorcycle is one of its kind and is the first one ever to come installed with a vertically inclined engine. The 110 cc power-mill borrowed from Honda churns out a peak power and torque equation close to 9 bhp and 9 Nm, respectively. The bike is expected to come trimmed with disc brakes, alloy wheels, self start and the company's ever so reliable high fuel efficiency, quality in perfection and low maintenance character.
