Hero Maestro Electric
Hero MotoCorp has introduced the Hero Maestro electric scooter concept at the 2020 Hero World. It comes with the bodywork, suspension and wheels of the Maestro Edge 110 scooter but a separate frame for the electric motor and battery pack.
The electric scooter is in the final stages of testing and could be launched in upcoming years. While using the Maestro Edge’s tail lamp assembly, it gets a new LED headlamp. The semi-digital instrument console has also been replaced by a digital display.
Hero Maestro Electric includes other features like keyless ignition, reverse mode, and cloud connectivity. Maestro thanks his white cousin for an all-white paint job and copper-colored wheels, front suspension, and transmission cover.
The upcoming Hero Maestro electric will directly compete with electric scooters like Bajaj Chetak and TVS iQube. Hero says the Maestro electric gets a powerful permanent magnet motor and a lithium-ion battery pack. Given that Hero MotoCorp has a large stake in Bengaluru-based electric start-up Athar Energy,
We believe that Hero Maestro Electric could use a permanent magnet synchronous (PMS) electric motor and a lithium-ion battery pack. Hero MotoCorp is known for its low-cost products. We had hoped that Hero would keep the price of the upcoming Hero Maestro Electric scooter at around Rs 1 lakh.
