Hero MotoCorp has launched India's first 100cc BS6 motorcycle, HF Deluxe at a price of Rs 55,925. What's interesting is that the two-wheeler uses XSens Technology. The bike will be available at all Hero MotoCorp showrooms from January 2020.

The BS6 version of Hero HF Deluxe comes in two trims - Rs 55,925 for the self start alloy wheel variant and the other with self start alloy wheel with i3s variant is priced at Rs 57,250. All prices stick to ex-showroom, Delhi.

Vikram Kasbekar, Executive Director  Operations (Plants) and Chief Technology Officer, Hero MotoCorp, said, At Hero MotoCorp, we have been working towards ensuring a smooth transition to the BS-VI norms, not just for us but also for all our stakeholders, the industry and most importantly the customers. We are into the final leg of this transition phase and key products in our portfolio like the HF Deluxe are being transitioned now to ensure smooth ramp-up. Our BS-IV inventories are low and will not be replenished going forward. We will be introducing a slew of BS-VI products in the coming weeks.

The bike comes with programmed Fuel-Injection with Xsens Technology which claims an increase in fuel economy by 9%. It also provides an effortless acceleration, smooth ride and smoothens the process of cold start.

Commenting on the occasion, Malo Le Masson, Head - Global Product Planning, Hero MotoCorp, said, HF Deluxe is the most popular entry segment motorcycle in India. The bike has already entered the 2-Million sales club and commands well over 2/3rd market share in the category. With the new HF Deluxe BS-VI, powered by Programmed FI technology, we have further enhanced the performance and efficiency of the motorcycle. We have now launched two new BS-VI motorcycles in quick succession and are committed to a rapid transition of our entire portfolio to the new norms."
