Since its inception in April 1994, the Hero Splendor has evolved to become one of the most popular motorcycles in the country. Hero has had stupendous success with each of the previous versions of the Splendor, which has been the best-selling motorcycles for several years. Now, it has become much smarter, here’s all you need to know about the new Hero Splendor Plus Xtec.
While Hero is the only Indian bikemaker to offer 100cc motorcycles at the moment, it has still given modern updates to the Splendor Plus Xtec. These features include a segment-first all-digital display with Bluetooth connectivity that provides incoming and missed call alerts, message alerts, two trip meters, real time mileage indicator and low fuel indicator. It also gets an integrated USB charging port.
Keeping safety in mind, the bike gets a side-stand alert and side-stand engine cutoff and also features a bank-angle sensor that cuts off the engine during a fall. The bike also gets an LED DRL along with refreshed graphics coupled with four new colour schemes, namely Sparkling Beta Blue, Canvas Black, Tornado Grey and Pearl White.

The Splendor Plus Xtec gets the same 97.2cc single cylinder engine producing 7.9PS and 8.05Nm, which also powers all the other variants of the Splendor Plus. It also gets the i3S (Idle Stop Start) system to aid fuel efficiency. Underpinnings include a front telescopic suspension coupled to dual rear shocks, found on all variants of the Splendor. Braking duties are shared by 130mm drum brakes at both ends. The bike gets 18 inch wheels which are wrapped with 80/100 tyres at both ends.
The Hero Splendor Plus Xtec is priced at Rs 72,900 (ex-showroom Delhi), which makes it Rs 2,200 more expensive than the self-start i3S variant. Here’s the full price list:
