Upcoming hero Scooter
Due to people liking more powerful vehicles, two-wheeler manufacturers are planning to bring more exciting models for the customers, which also includes the scooter segment. Adventure motorcycles already have a large market in India, while adventure scooters are also slowly gaining popularity in the global markets. It seems that hero MotoCorp is going to join this segment by introducing its first adventure scooter. The domestic two-wheeler brand recently teased the upcoming adventure scooter on its social media handle. The teaser shows three models that will be showcased at the upcoming EICMA show in Milan, italy in the next few days.

Out of the three models shown, the middle model looks interesting as a similar patent filed by hero MotoCorp was leaked on the internet a few months ago and in all probability, it could be the same model. Like most adventure scooters globally, the upcoming hero two-wheeler has also been given maxi-scooter styling like the Yamaha Aerox 155 and Aprilia SR 160.
What's in the teaser?
India's largest two-wheeler manufacturer has shared another teaser of the upcoming maxi-style scooter on its social media. In this short video, hero describes it as a "two-wheeler SUV". The video ends with words like "An Adventure Awaits" with emphasis on words like "X-PLORE, X-CITE, and X-PERIENCE."

For example, it has an aggressive front fascia with a twin LED headlamp setup with integrated LED DRLs that resemble a high-end adventure bike like the Ducati Hypermotard. There is also a big windscreen in the front which gives it an adventurous look.
