The name Hero Passion Plus brings back a lot of memories. It was once one of the most stylish bikes in the 100cc segment. Youth loved it. Office goers trusted it. Families depended on it.
Now in 2025, Hero MotoCorp has brought the bike back. And it’s better than ever. The new Passion Plus 2025 carries the same iconic look but adds new touches to match today’s time. With excellent mileage and a smart design, it’s ready to rule the roads again.
Let’s take a detailed look at what this new model brings.
Design That Still Turns Heads
Hero didn’t change the Passion Plus completely. And that’s a good thing. It still has that same stylish shape from the older version. But now, it feels fresh.
The bike gets new body graphics. They are bold and eye-catching. The fuel tank looks sharp. The front cowl has been redesigned. It now has a more modern feel.
You’ll also notice blacked-out engine and exhaust. It gives the bike a sporty vibe. The tail lamp is clear and sleek. The side panels flow neatly into the rear section.
The bike comes in attractive dual-tone colours. Red with black, blue with silver, and black with grey. These colours give it a youthful energy.
LED Headlamp Adds Modern Touch
The new LED headlamp is one of the big changes. It is brighter and more stylish than the old halogen unit. You get better visibility during night rides. The DRL adds a smart finish to the face.
Turn indicators are now slimmer. The rear tail light is also sharper. All of this adds up to a more premium look without losing the old Passion identity.
Simple and Useful Instrument Cluster
The semi-digital meter console is easy to read. You get an analog speedometer and a small digital screen. The digital part shows fuel level, trip meter, odometer, and service reminders.
This setup keeps things simple and useful. No over-tech. Just what a rider really needs on a daily ride.
Switchgear quality is improved too. The buttons feel better to press. You get a pass light switch, engine cut-off switch, and an i3S button as well.
Engine That Keeps You Moving
Hero Passion Plus 2025 runs on the trusted 97.2cc air-cooled engine. It produces around 8.02 bhp and 8.05 Nm of torque. That may not sound big, but for daily rides, it’s more than enough.
The bike is light. The throttle response is smooth. Power delivery is linear. You can cruise in city traffic without frequent gear shifts.
The 4-speed gearbox is butter smooth. Clutch feel is light. Even new riders will find it easy to manage.
Hero has tuned this engine for maximum fuel efficiency. It uses the same reliable platform that’s proven over the years.
Mileage That Saves You Money
If you’re buying a bike for daily travel, mileage matters the most. And this is where the Passion Plus 2025 shines.
The bike gives around 65 to 70 km/l in real-world riding. Some riders who maintain it well may even get close to 75 km/l.
The fuel tank can hold around 11 litres. That means once full, you can ride over 700 km without needing a refill. That’s perfect for office goers, students, and delivery riders.
Add the i3S technology to that, and your fuel savings go even higher. The bike shuts off automatically at red lights. And starts again with a small throttle twist. No fuel wastage in idle.
Ride Quality is Soft and Balanced
The bike uses telescopic front forks and twin rear shock absorbers. They are tuned more for comfort than sport. And they do the job well.
Bad roads, potholes, speed breakers – it can handle them all. The seat is wide and long. Good for both rider and pillion. The seat height is comfortable for average height riders.
The handlebar is upright. Foot pegs are in a relaxed position. It’s a perfect setup for long rides or city commuting.
Brakes and Tyres Keep You Safe
Hero Passion Plus 2025 offers drum brakes on both wheels. You also get IBS (Integrated Braking System). This means when you press the rear brake, both wheels get braking force. It improves safety.
Braking is decent. Tyres are now tubeless. That means fewer chances of sudden air loss in case of puncture. They also offer better grip.
The bike runs on 18-inch alloy wheels, which help in ride stability. The wheels are lightweight and strong.
Lightweight and Easy to Handle
The Passion Plus weighs just around 112 kg. That makes it one of the lightest bikes in its class. You can handle it easily in traffic. Even parking is simple.
It’s perfect for riders who don’t want heavy machines. Even elderly riders and women will feel confident while riding it.
Hero Branding and Trust
Hero has been the king of commuter bikes for years. Their bikes last long. They are easy to maintain. And service centers are present in every corner of India.
Even in small towns and villages, you’ll find Hero mechanics. Spare parts are cheap. And resale value is great. Passion Plus is no different.
It comes with 5-year warranty and low-cost service plans. Hero also gives easy finance options and attractive EMI plans for budget buyers.
Who Should Consider This Bike
This bike is made for the daily Indian rider. If you travel 20 to 50 km every day, this is a perfect choice.
Students, office workers, shopkeepers, delivery riders, and anyone who wants a no-nonsense, smart, and fuel-efficient bike can go for it.
It’s also great as a second bike in the family. Easy to maintain. Easy to ride. And perfect for quick local trips.
