Turning its focus on research and development after parting ways with Honda, Hero MotorCorp is set to bring technologies mostly seen in cars to two-wheelers as it gears up to showcase its innovative prowess.
Some features that the company will soon introduce in its two-wheelers include the engine stop-start system and the electronic immobiliser.
The engine stop-start system, also known as micro hybrid in top-end cars and SUVs, automatically shuts the engine when idling and turns it on when needed, improving fuel efficiency and cutting emissions.
The electronic immobiliser is a security device that prevents the engine from running without the correct key.
The company will also come up with scooters equipped with integrated braking system (IBS), which uses one brake handle for both the front and rear wheels.
"All these innovations are done by Hero's own R&D. A lot of questions were asked when we started the journey on our own about how we would fare, but today we are ready to showcase what we are capable of," Hero MotoCorp managing director and CEO Pawan Munjal told PTI.
