Despite Rajiv Bajaj’s announcement last month on the downfall of the scooter segment in India, Hero Honda is pushing on and bringing out a new line-up of gearless scooters.

HH has the sole “Pleasure” model whose sales say a 39% boost in the first eight months of this financial year. This could be the prime inspiration for the new range.

Hero Honda has not divulged any details on the scooter’s engine capacity or price range. It is understood that the core technology will come from Honda. Don’t be surprised if the Activa’s engine is fitted on to one of the new HH models.

Hero Honda will roll out the new scooters from its Manesar plant. TVS, Mahindra and Suzuki are also working on their contenders secretly, we’re told.
