Hero Splendor and HF Deluxe E85 versions discounted by Rs 4,000

Hero MotoCorp has announced a limited-period discount of ₹4,000 on its newly launched E85-compliant flex-fuel commuter motorcycles . This offer is valid until July 2026 . The discount applies to both the **Hero Splendor+ Flex Fuel** and the **Hero HF Deluxe Flex Fuel**. This move aims to encourage more people to buy high-ethanol blend vehicles.

The discount makes these bikes much more affordable. The **Hero HF Deluxe Flex Fuel** now costs **₹68,792** (ex-showroom), which is **₹1,650 cheaper** than the standard E20 petrol version . The **Hero Splendor+ Flex Fuel** now costs **₹78,710** (ex-showroom), which is only **₹1,153 more** than the regular E20 model . This brings the price of the new flex-fuel bikes very close to the standard ones .

These bikes will first go on sale in **Delhi and select regions of Maharashtra from July 2026** . After that, Hero will expand availability to other parts of the country in a phased manner .

Both motorcycles are powered by Hero’s trusted 97.2cc single-cylinder engine. This engine has been specially modified to run on ethanol blends from E20 up to E85 . When running on E85 fuel, the engine produces **8.6 hp** of power and **8.3 Nm** of torque . To handle the corrosive nature of ethanol, Hero has made several important changes. These include a revised engine control unit (ECU) that adjusts the air-fuel mixture automatically, a new corrosion-resistant fuel pump, and an upgraded secondary fuel filter . The Splendor+ Flex Fuel also gets Hero’s i3S idle stop-start technology to save fuel in traffic .

Hero is offering a ₹4,000 discount on its new flex-fuel bikes. This makes the HF Deluxe Flex Fuel cheaper than the standard petrol version and the Splendor+ Flex Fuel almost the same price. This offer is valid until July 2026. The bikes will be available first in Delhi and Maharashtra from July 2026.
