Hero Passion XPro

Hero Passion XPro Highlights

The Hero Passion Pro BS6 has been spied for the first time and is likely to be launched soon. It’s likely to garner a price hike of Rs 7,000 - Rs 8,000 over the BS4 model which retails at Rs 60,900 (disc). The bike seems to come with cosmetic and mechanical updates which keep it in line with the current trends. It features a new front fascia along with a redesigned tank and sharper tank extensions. A new livery also gives it a fresh new look. 

The Passion Pro BS6 is likely to draw power from the same 109.15cc, single-cylinder air-cooled motor seen on the Splendor iSmart BS6. In its current state of tune, it makes 9.5PS at 7500rpm and 9Nm at 5500rpm, mated to a 4-speed gearbox. Features like i3S idle start-stop and IBS come as standard.

Hero MotoCorp launched the Passion XPro back in 2018 with a new 109.15cc engine, updated features, enhanced styling and brand new graphics and colours. The commuter bike now features sportier styling thanks to the sharp fuel tank with a flush fuel lid, dynamic fuel tank shrouds, dual-tone mirrors and a racy rear cowl. New dual-tone colours include Sports Red with Black, Black with Sports Red, Black with Techno Blue, Black with Heavy Grey and Force Silver with Black. The Passion XPro further gets Automatic Headlamp On (AHO), an LED tail lamp and a semi-digital instrument console that includes a digital fuel gauge, side-stand indicator and an odometer.

There are two variants of the Passion XPro - i3s Drum Alloy and i3s Disc Alloy. The base variant comes fitted with alloy wheels and drum brakes at both ends and is priced at Rs 58,200 (ex-showroom Delhi). On the other hand, the i3s Disc Alloy has a front disc brake and is priced at Rs 60,900 (ex-showroom Delhi). The 2018 Passion XPro is part of the highly competitive commuter motorcycles segment and locks horns with the Bajaj Discover 110, the Honda CD Dream Series, the Honda Livo and the TVS Victor.
