Hero Super Splendor BS6 vs Hero Glamour BS6: What to choose?

If you have been looking for a commuter motorcycle from Hero, you may have already come across Hero Super Splendor BS6 and Hero Glamour BS6. Both these bikes debuted in 2020 after the Bharat Stage 6 emission norms were passed, and both are crowd favourites, falling within the same price range. Confused about which one to choose? You’re one from a teeming lot!

Read on for a Hero Super Splendor BS6 vs Hero Glamour BS6showdown.

The performance perspective

While Glamour runs on an engine of 125 cc, Super Splendour is powered by a slightly lower 124,7 cc engine. Both engines are attached to a five-speed manual gearbox. Glamour wins in the power department running at 10.87 PS @7500 rpm, and Super Splendor comes a close second at 10.8 PS @7500 rpm. Both models also have the same maximum torque capped at 10.6 Nm @ 6000 rpm.

Equipped with the new 125cc BS6 engine to power through, Glamour takes the upper hand from Hero to steal the show.

Looks that matter and features that count

Aesthetics aresubjective, and today we’re comparing bikes at the opposite ends of the spectrum. Glamour has a recognizable modern design, though the fit and the finish levels may not appeal to everyone. Hero Super Splendor BS6, on the other hand, is classic but pretty plain looking.

Feature-wise, Glamour wins with its charging points, Bluetooth, side-stand engine cut off, bank angle sensor and many more features.

Other features

Both the models boast of the i3S for a stellar commute. Glamour cashes in on its range of features but falls short due to subpar braking performance and coarse engine sounds. On the other hand, Super Splendour boasts of its fuel-efficient motor that is easy to maintain but lacks feature-wise.

Money matters

Since both these models are commuter bikes, their prices are below the one lakh mark. You can buy the Hero Glamour BS6 model at Rs. 74,900 (ex-showroom), and Hero Super Splendor at Rs. 72,600 (ex-showroom). Nonetheless, purchasing a bike is still a significant investment, so you might want to opt for a two-wheeler loan to avoid burdening your pockets.
