    Living with the Hero Splendor Plus XTec: 

    After clocking over 4,000 kilometers on my Hero Splendor Plus XTec, I feel equipped to give a thorough review. For starters, the bike's LED DRLs and the digital analog combo meter with Bluetooth connectivity stand out in its segment. As a daily commuter in a bustling city like Mumbai, the bike’s light weight frame and the impressive fuel efficiency of about 70 to 80 kmpl have been best for my pocket.However, the riding experience has not been entirely smooth. The suspension feels a bit stiff on uneven roads and the 97.2cc engine, although reliable, lacks the acceleration needed for quick overtakes.

    extra thrill, extra fun 

    Recently we bought a new bike Hero Splendor Plus XTec. It allows me to pair your smartphone with the bike and view call and SMS alerts on the instrument cluster, offering some level of connected features. The comfortable riding position, well-padded seat, and lightweight handling of the Splendor Plus, making it easy to maneuver in traffic. However If you're looking for a fuel-efficient, easy-to-use, and now slightly more feature-rich commuter motorcycle at a budget-friendly price, the Splendor Plus XTec is a good choice .

    extra thrill, extra fun 

    The Hero Splendor Plus XTec is a feature-rich variant of the popular Hero Splendor Plus commuter bike . Its engine is 97.2cc is not that much powerful . The Hero Splendor Plus XTec offers a similar comfortable riding posture to the standard variant, with an upright handlebar, a well-cushioned seat, and a moderate footpeg position suitable for rider and pillion comfort. Talking about its safety features which lacks additional safety features like airbags. However it does not provides much energy .
