3. i3S Technology: Already being appreciated by customers of the Splendor iSmart and iSmart 110, Hero's patented i3S technology has also been equipped in the new Glamour.

Saving fuel consumption on traffic signals and other conditions, the system helps in returning a better fuel economy, especially in city riding conditions. The system is also switchable, so you can turn it off if you want to.
