Remember the Hero Impulse? While that motorcycle may not have been a huge commercial success for Hero MotoCorp at the time of its launch, over time, it has become one of the most sought-after motorcycles for enthusiasts. The bike was clearly ahead of its time and ventured into a segment that has only managed to get traction in recent times, for example, the Royal Enfield Himalayan. Not giving up on the segment, Hero MotoCorp has given all enthusiasts a reason to rejoice as they have unveiled the X Pulse concept motorcycle at the 2017 EICMA going on in Milan, Italy. The motorcycle gives a good indication of what Hero MotoCorp has planned for the future and its intent to step into higher engine capacity segments.
At EICMA, the company’s motorsport division – Hero MotoSports Team Rally, also presented its plan for the upcoming Dakar Rally 2018, including its new motorcycle, which the pilots will ride at the Rally.
"We are also pleased with our motorsport team, which in its debut season made a mark in rallies across continents last year. The team is now ready for Dakar 2018. We are also taking our learning and experience from motorsports to develop new concepts and products for our customers."
The Hero MotoSports Team Rally had a successful debut season on the rally racing circuit last season, with a 100% finish rate in all the rallies that it participated in. The Team has started its preparations for the Dakar Rally 2018 on a positive note with impressive finishes at Dakar Series Rallies.
