Along with the launch of the new Maestro Edge, Hero also unveiled another scooter called as Duet, which to us actually looks better. Duet also gets the all-new indigenously developed engine and more importantly a metal body which makes it a direct rival against the segment leader Activa. Here are more details…
Hero Duet Features
- Metal Body
- Integrated Braking System
- Telescopic front suspension
- Under-seat mobile charging port
- Remote seat & fuel lid opening
- Service due indicator
- Side stand indicator
Hero Duet Colors:
The Duet is being offered in a choice of six color options against Maestro Edge’s seven…
- Candy Blazing Red
- Vernier Grey (non-metallic)
- Panther black
- Matte Nature Green
- Grace Grey
- Pearl Silver White
Duet Engine
Duet’s air-cooled single cylinder 110.9 cc engine churns out 8.31 bhp of peak power at 8000 rpm and 8.30 Nm of maximum torque at 6500 rpm. It returns a claimed fuel efficiency rating of 63.8 kmpl, slightly lesser than Maestro Edge, most probably due to the higher weight of 116 kg (against 110 kg of Edge).
Duet Variants & Launch:
Hero has not revealed the prices of Duet in today’s event and has said that the official roll-out of Duet will follow after 13th October when Maestro Edge reaches the markets. But they have confirmed that Duet will be available in two variants – VX and LX. Hints are that it may be placed slightly under the new Maestro Edge.
