Hero MotoCorp has discontinued the Impulse as the brand is now working on a new bigger engine capacity Impulse bikes. The original Impulse was launched with a 150cc engine. There are likely to be two and not one Impulse motorcycles on offer, one will be a 200cc and the other a 250cc. It was recently that Hero MotoCorp has registered the Impulse 200/250 brand name under its name.
The new HX250 R that was showcased at the 2014 Auto Expo will be sharing its engine with this Impulse, while a new 200cc engine is being developed for the Impulse along with another Hero motorcycle. Hero will be launching the Impulse 200/250 sometime in early 2016. The Impulse 250cc will get a newly developed fuel injection system from Hero like to be a digitally controlled fuel injection, which is a lot more advanced than the one introduced on the Glamour. Both the engines will be single-cylinder, the 250cc engine will produce 31bhp of power, while the 200cc will produce about 23bhp.Hero will target the Pulsar 200 range with its new engine and maybe the KTM 200s with its 250cc bikes in pricing. The Karizma is likely to co-exist and there will be 200cc, 223cc and 250cc bikes in Hero's current range of motorcycles.
Hero MotoCorp will also be launching two new scooters this year, one will be an 110cc and other will be 125cc. The scooter segment is the fastest growing in the two-wheeler market and Hero will not want to miss out its chunk of pie. At the moment, Hero has the Maestro and the Pleasure scooters; soon it will be adding a couple more to its existing portfolio.
