- Hero recently updated its HF Deluxe range with CBS.
- However, the ECO did not receive the mandatory safety mandate.
- The standard HF Deluxe continues to be priced at Rs 39,900 (ex-showroom Delhi).
The Hero HF Deluxe Eco has been taken off the company’s official website, hinting at a possible discontinuation. This doesn’t come as a surprise considering the motorcycle wasn’t updated with CBS post the April 2019 deadline. Surprisingly, the standard HF Deluxe did receive the safety net of CBS with revised pricing of Rs 39,900 (ex-showroom Delhi).

The HF Deluxe ECO shares its mechanicals and underpinnings with the standard HF Deluxe, separated from the latter only by its unique white/green paint scheme. Powering it was still the same 97.2cc air-cooled engine which makes 8.3PS at 8000rpm and 8.05Nm at 5000rpm, working alongside a 4-speed transmission.
Suspension duties here were handled by telescopic forks at the front and twin rear shock absorbers with 2-step adjustable preload. Meanwhile, braking hardware consisted of drum brakes on both ends.

The HF Deluxe is one of the many mass-selling products in Hero’s lineup. However, its ECO variant never received the same level of popularity due to its high asking price. When it was on sale, the ECO was over Rs 9,000 more expensive than the standard model. We don’t think Hero will be bringing the motorcycle back anytime soon.

- City ride with Hf deluxeI chose the HF Deluxe because it is known for reliability, low maintenance cost, and excellent fuel efficiency, which suits daily commuting needs. Being a product from Hero MotoCorp, it also gives confidence in terms of service network and resale value. The ride so far has been quite smooth and comfortable for city use. The seat is well cushioned and the suspension handles rough roads decently. Mileage is a strong point easily giving around 65 to 70 km per litre which makes it very economical. The bike is lightweight so handling is easy especially in traffic, However speed and power are limited it is not built for aggressive riding On highways it performs okay at moderate speeds 50 to 70 km per hour but feels slightly underpowered if you try to push beyond that. Yes I would definitely recommend this bike to anyone looking for a budget friendly low maintenance daily commuter especially for city rides rather than long highway touring and for office use daily updowRead More6 8
