BS6-compliant Hero Splendor iSmart power figures leaked

• The upcoming BS6-compliant iSmart will be powered by a slightly bigger engine. 
• It is now 33mm longer than before. 
• Expect it to command a premium of around Rs 7,000 over the current model. 

Hero MotoCorp will soon launch India’s first BS6-compliant motorcycle, the Splendor iSmart. Now, we have got our hands on official RTO documents which reveal new information about the upcoming motorcycle. 

According to the document, the upcoming Splendor iSmart will be powered by a 113.2cc motor instead of the 109.15cc mill which powers the current BS4-compliant model. Even though there has been a slight increment in cubic capacity, the power hasn’t gone up. Instead, the updated fuel-injected motor now churns out 9.1PS, which is 0.4PS less compared to the current model.

It is 33mm longer (2048mm) and 55mm taller (1110mm) than before as well. The upcoming BS6-compliant Splendor iSmart will be available in two variants: drum and front-disc equipped.
