Splendor Plus Xtec All You Need To Know

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.

Tech-savvy Features

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.
