Hero Splendor Ismart 110

The Splendor iSmart 110 is Hero MotoCorps first ingeniously developed motorcycle. Shedding off the dependence on Honda, the Splendor iSmart 110 is based on a new platform and engine. Hero MotoCorp has stuck to a conservative design approach for the Splendor iSmart 110, though it now looks more elegant than its others stable mates. The bikini fairing, curvy fuel tank and the simple tail section give the motorcycle a simple yet refreshingly new look. The instrument cluster also gets a basic design, though it does integrate a small LCD screen that displays the trip meter, odometer and fuel indicator. Powering the Splendor iSmart 110 is a new 110cc engine that produces 9bhp and 9Nm of torque, and is mated to a four-speed gearbox. With a top speed of 87kmph, Hero claims that this engine offers nine per cent more power and 12 per cent higher torque than its older 100cc counterparts. The bike comes with idle start-stop system (i3s) that helps in saving fuel in stop-go traffic. The Splendor iSmart 110 is a part of one of most competitive segments in the country, where it rivals the likes of the Honda Livo, TVS Star City Plus and the Suzuki Hayate.
