Hero MotoCorp is gearing up to introduce the revamped 2025 Hero Splendor Plus, generating considerable excitement. Celebrated for its dependability and fuel economy, this iconic motorcycle is receiving a modern update while preserving its core values. Equipped with a robust engine, remarkable mileage, and innovative features, the 2025 Splendor Plus is poised to dominate the streets.
Design
The 2025 Hero Splendor Plus retains its classic, straightforward aesthetic but incorporates a hint of elegance. New graphics and chrome detailing on the mirrors and exhaust enhance its visual appeal, lending it a more refined, high-end look. The bike is available in vibrant new color options, such as Black with Silver, Heavy Grey, and Bumblebee Yellow, catering to both younger riders and families alike. Its simple, upright design ensures a comfortable experience for daily commutes, while the multi-reflector headlamp improves visibility during nighttime rides. It’s a blend of practicality and modernity, perfectly suited for Indian roads.
Engine
Powering the 2025 Splendor Plus is a sophisticated 97.2cc, air-cooled, 4-stroke, single-cylinder engine. It now adheres to BS6 Phase-2 standards, ensuring compliance with the latest emission regulations while delivering seamless performance. The engine generates approximately 8.02 PS at 8000 RPM and 8.05 Nm of torque at 6000 RPM. Paired with a 4-speed gearbox, it’s engineered for effortless urban commuting and occasional trips on the highway. Hero’s XSens technology fine-tunes fuel delivery for enhanced efficiency and power output.
Performance
The Splendor Plus prioritizes reliability over sheer speed. With a maximum speed of around 90 km/h, it’s ideally suited for navigating bustling city streets or smaller town roads. The engine delivers consistent power, ensuring smooth rides, even with a passenger. The tubular double cradle frame and telescopic front forks, along with 5-step adjustable rear suspension, effectively absorb potholes and bumps. Its lightweight construction, weighing in at 112 kg, makes it easy to handle, particularly for novice riders.
Mileage
Fuel efficiency is a key strength of the 2025 Splendor Plus. Hero advertises an impressive 80 kmpl under optimal conditions, thanks to the i3S (Idle Start-Stop) system and advanced fuel injection technology. In practical, real-world scenarios, expect to achieve around 65–70 kmpl, which remains an exceptional figure for daily commuters. With a 9.8-liter fuel tank, you can travel over 700 km on a single fill-up, resulting in significant savings at the gas station.
Features
The 2025 model elevates the experience with practical enhancements. The i3S system automatically shuts off the engine during idle periods to conserve fuel, while a semi-digital instrument panel provides essential trip and fuel information. Select variants incorporate LED DRLs, a USB charging port, and a side-stand engine cut-off for added safety. Tubeless tires and an integrated braking system (IBS) contribute to enhanced reliability and improved control.
