Our take on this /// Verdict
The Hero Passion Pro, particularly the 2020 model, presents a mixed bag of experiences. On the positive side, it boasts a sleek and sporty design, which is a significant upgrade from its predecessors. The bike features a redesigned headlight, larger fuel tank extensions, and a sharper tail lamp, making it visually appealing. The new diamond frame and increased suspension travel enhance its handling and stability, although the skinny tyres can be a concern, especially on wet roads. However, several users have reported issues with engine starting, gear shifting problems, and sudden engine shutdowns, which raise concerns about its reliability. Despite these issues, the bikes fuel efficiency, with mileage figures ranging from 55 to 86 kmpl, is a strong point. Overall, while it offers some compelling features, potential buyers should weigh the pros and cons carefully, especially considering the reliability concerns.
Price
The Hero Passion Pro is priced competitively in the Indian market. The ex-showroom price in Delhi starts at around Rs 65,740 for the drum brake variant and Rs 67,940 for the disc brake variant. When you factor in the on-road costs, including registration, insurance, and other charges, the price can go up to around Rs 75,000 to Rs 80,000. Given its features and the strong service network of Hero, the price seems reasonable, especially for those looking for a stylish and fuel-efficient commuter bike. However, the higher price compared to some of its rivals might be a consideration for budget-conscious buyers.
