Hero MotoCorp, on Wednesday, unveiled two new 100cc bikes — Splendor Pro Classic and Passion TR — at the Delhi Auto Expo. These are expected to go on sale in the next two months.

Besides, the company showcased a 620cc super premium motorbike Hastur and two concept bikes SimplEcity and iON.

“The two bikes (Splendor and Passion) are ready to be launched commercially. Hastur, which will mark our foray into the superbike segment, needs more research before launch,” Managing Director and CEO Pawan Munjal told reporters here.

On concept bikes, Mr. Munjal said, “They are destined for the future.”

While the market had been slow, he saw growth returning in the second-half of this calendar year.

The company had last week unveiled a 150cc diesel concept scooter and four other models, including a hybrid scooter.

Except for the 150cc diesel model RNT, the company plans to launch all the other four models in the next fiscal.
