Hero Pleasure Plus Engine

Hero MotoCorp has relied on the tried-and-tested single-cylinder, air-cooled, 110.9cc engine for the Pleasure Plus, which first debuted with the Maestro Edge 110. This engine delivers 8.1PS @ 7000rpm and 8.7Nm @ 5500rpm and is paired with a V-belt automatic transmission.

Hero Pleasure Plus Suspension & Brakes

The Hero Pleasure Plus is one of those scooters in India which still comes with the old-school trailing link setup for the front suspension, while for the rear wheel, it has a single-sided swingarm with spring-loaded hydraulic dampers. All the variants of the Hero Pleasure Plus have 10-inch steel wheels with 90/100-10 tubeless tyres at both ends. The scooter also has 130mm drum brakes for front and rear wheels.

One of the lightest scooters on sale in India, the Hero Pleasure Plus has a ground clearance of 155mm, while its fuel tank capacity is 4.8 litres. 

Hero Pleasure Plus Key Features

The Hero Pleasure Plus is pretty basic in terms of features, with the scooter getting stylised steel wheels, an electric starter and a part-digital instrument cluster as standard. However, the range-topping Pleasure Plus Xtec variant gets more features like an LED projector headlamp, chrome rearview mirrors, chrome garnish on the front fender and a pillion seat backrest. The Hero Pleasure Plus Xtec variant also gets Bluetooth connectivity as an option, in which the blue LCD screen that shows the fuel gauge and odometer also reads out incoming calls and SMS alerts.

Hero Pleasure Plus Rivals

The Hero Pleasure Plus competes with the rest of the affordable, entry-level 110cc scooters like TVS Scooty Zest and Honda Dio.
