After losing the top spot of the list of Top-Selling Bikes in India for a long time, the bestselling Hero Splendor is back on the top of the list, outrunning Honda Activa by a decent margin. With the continuous efforts and the high sales on this year’s festive season, achieving this aim and fetching back the title became possible.
Hero and Honda have been going through a strict rivalry since their separation in the year 2010. When these two companies were together, they were the dominants of two-wheelers in India, and after separating, these two companies had the tactics to succeed in the Indian market running in their veins. This gave rise to the presence of two big companies, providing quality products in order to surpass the other in terms of sale and profit.
Hero, now known as Hero MotoCorp, has been a proud manufacturer of the very famous Splendor. Earlier, this bike came under the name of Hero Honda, but with the separation, Hero MotoCorp became the sole manufacturer of this bike.
Hero Splendor remained the top selling two-wheeler bike for many years, but with the higher demand of Honda Activa, the rank of Hero Splendor sank. But with the recent increase in the demands of people, and with the increment in the sales during this Diwali season, Hero Splendor again became the topper of the charts.
Hero has now been enjoying this title for more than three months now, with the sale of 2,34,844 units in September, which clearly outnumbered the Honda Activa’s sales of 2,10,797 units. The unbreakable trust of people in this highly efficient durable bike makes this bike, the most deserving candidate to enjoy the top position.
A company with an unwavering fan following and the perfect blend of performance and design superiority, Honda has been able to lead the two- wheeler segment in India for many years now. This company making to the top position again is a matter of pride and also shows the fabulous brand image it holds.
