Hero Hunk vs Hero Passion Pro

Hero Motocorp has kicked things up a notch with the 2020 Hero Passion Pro. So what’s new? And how much of a difference have the changes made? To find out, we spent a couple of days with the motorcycle in city traffic and on the highway. Yes, we even rode it over broken roads and loaded it with a hefty duffle bag, because after all, it will be used as a rugged commuter isn’t it?

The Passion brand was supposed to replace the Splendor when it was launched many years ago. But the Indian market liked this entry-level bike so much that it went on to become the second highest selling bike brand for Hero MotoCorp. Over the last few years, many manufacturers have tried to dethrone the Passion range but were unsuccessful. Hero MotoCorp found out that the Indian buyers were upgrading themselves to a higher displacement and that’s when it decided to give the Passion Pro a new 110cc heart.
