With the emission norms for two-wheelers in effect from April 1st, Hero Honda did not introduce a BS3 version of its best selling bike, the Splendor+.
Hero Honda had been waiting for the final notification on implementation of BS3 emission norms for two-wheelers by the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways which was delayed by 2 months has been issued in the last week of May.
Now, after the arrival of the final notification from the Ministry, Hero Honda has started producing BS3 engines for the Splendor+. This makes the Splendor+ eligible for sale in all the 13 metros. Hero Honda is expected hike the prices of the BS3 compliant Splendor+ by Rs.500-Rs.1000.
The BS3 Splendor+ is good news for the 100-odd Hero Honda dealers in the 13 metros, as they have lost close to Rs. 120 crore in the last two months as they couldn’t sell BS2 versions of the Splendor+.
