Hero MotoCorp has achieved a new record of 100 million unit sales in FY2021 and it ended the last calendar year on a high with the Splendor leading the charts. The entry-level commuter motorcycle garnered a total of 1,94,930 units in December 2020 as against 1,93,726 units during the same period in 2019 with 1 per cent growth.
Another commuter from Hero, the HF Deluxe, got the better of Honda Activa last month as 1,41,168 units were registered against 1,38,951 units during the corresponding period in 2019 with 2 per cent positive sales increase on Year-on-Year basis. The Activa scooter posted a cumulative domestic tally of 1,34,077 units in December 2020.
When compared to the same period in 2019 with 1,31,899 units, the highly popular scooter endured 2 per cent sales increase but it was only good enough to secure third position as opposed to its usual second. The Pulsar range of sporty entry-level motorcycles has been a huge success over the years and last month it was the fourth most sold two-wheeler.
