With its impressive 70 kmpl mileage and advanced i3S technology, the HF Deluxe establishes new benchmarks in the entry-level commuter category.
Efficient Engine Performance for Everyday Riding
The HF Deluxe is powered by a 97.2cc, single-cylinder, air-cooled, 4-stroke engine, which generates 7.91 bhp of power and 8.05 Nm of peak torque. This legendary engine has been tuned for excellent rideability and drivability in town and on the highway, and the smooth response of the engine allows you to ride most of the time at the lowest rpm range for the domestic use. The engine’s wide power band offers a high level of performance in all riding situations, yet delivering affordable running costs, low fuel consumption and low emissions for urban use. The use of precision engineering and modern combustion technology in this engine ensures compact size, light weight and very low fuel consumption and emissions.
Hero HF Deluxe: i3S For Improved Mileage!
The highlight of the HF Deluxe is Hero’s patented Idling Stop-Start System (i3S) which shuts off the engine at short stops and seamlessly switches it on when required. This technology is part of the engine’s power management system that helps save fuel in city riding conditions, where frequent starting and stopping are common. The i3S system is designed to deliver higher fuel efficiency by automatically shutting the engine off when idling, such as at traffic signals, and starts immediate, effortless and silent as soon as you press the clutch.
Practical and Functional Design
The look in the HF Deluxe is that of a classic commuter but with new body graphics and a sleek finish that keeps it looking cool. The low weight and 805 mm elevation of the seat allow beginner or motorcycle returnee access to the world of sports motorcycles. The ride position is natural and back-friendly during long hauls and the well padded seat does its job well for both rider and pillion. Overall, it’s a design that focuses on functionality and userfriendliness, with considered details that improve the daily ride.
