Hero's year-to-date sales between April and September 2018 stand at 4.2 million units, and the company is aiming to set a new benchmark for monthly sales with the festive season in the following months.
The previous month also saw the manufacturer commence pan India sale of its new flagship motorcycle - Hero Xtreme 200R. The manufacturer is betting big on the festive season to push its volumes further and the company has also roped in Indian cricketer Virat Kohli as its new brand ambassador.
Hero has saved three new products for the last quarter of the calendar year, all of which were showcased at the Auto Expo 2018. The company will be introducing the Hero Duet (Destini) and Maestro 125 cc scooters next year, while the much talked about Hero XPulse 200R is also slated for launch towards the end of the year.
