The motorcycle is still powered by the same Honda-sourced 97.2cc single-cylinder, air-cooled engine that churns out a maximum power output of 8 PS at 8000 RPM and the peak torque rating is 8.05 Nm at 6000 RPM. It comes mated to a 4-speed manual gearbox and now complies with the upcoming stringent BS6-emission norms. Like its sibling new Hero HF Deluxe, it also now gets a fuel-injected system with ‘Xsens’ technology that claims to offer 9% better fuel efficiency and acceleration.

The 2020 Hero Splendor Plus BS6 continues to be available in three variants: Kick with Alloy, Self start with Alloy, and Self start with Alloy and i3S, prices for which start at Rs 59,600 and goes up to Rs 63,110, all prices Ex-showroom Delhi.
