| Hero Splendor Plus |
The Splendor was launched
back in 1994 & is known as the spiritual successor to the CD 100. It is one
of the oldest commuter bikes sold in India & continues to clock over a
million units a year. The Splendor is available in many different avatars, one of
which is Splendor Plus. Despite being a bit old, Splendor Plus is decently
loaded with standard features. The bike is also offered with optional alloy
wheels, a stylish instrument console.
The bike is powered by the tried & tested
97cc air cooled four-stroke single cylinder engine which is also found in a
host of other Hero bikes. This engine produces 7.4bhp 7.95Nm of torque. With
emphasis on squeezing out maximum efficiency, engine allows the Splendor Plus
to offer decent performance & drivability. Though unlike the Splendor Pro, this
bike does not offer adjustable hydraulic shock absorbers. The Splendor Plus is available in six colour schemes
namely Candy Red, Hi Granite Blue, Palace Maroon, Black with Silver, Cloud
Silver & Black with Purple.
Priced at Rs 43,750
(ex-showroom Delhi) for the base version, the Hero Splendor Plus competes
against the Bajaj Discover 100 & the TVS Sport in the hotly contested
commuter segment.
