One of the most famous two-wheeler manufacturers in India, Hero MotoCorp has recently updated its official website and has removed 15 two-wheelers from its portfolio.

The brand has permanently discontinued the Splendor Pro, HF Dawn, HF Deluxe Eco, Passion xPro, Xtreme Sports, Achiever 150, Karizma ZMR and the more-affordable last-gen Glamour series in India. At present, only 8 bikes are listed on Hero MotoCorp's official website:

In addition to this, Hero MotoCorp recently replaced the Pleasure (102cc model) with a new and more-powerful 110cc Pleasure+ in the Indian market. Since the manufacturers have been dealing with millions of losses in terms of the unsold BS4 inventory due to the lockdown, the Supreme Court of India has offered relief to the dealerships to sell 10% of their remaining BS4 inventory in 10 days post the lockdown. Hero MotoCorp has recently inaugurated its sixth production plant in India in Chittoor, Andhra Pradesh that will create thousands of employment opportunities for the people in the region.
