Also, Hero is offering i3S for best ever fuel efficiency figures from the engine. The engine comes mated to a 4-speed gearbox. Front disc brake comes as option on both the bikes while buyers will get 130mm drum brake as standard. These are equipped with digital analogue instrument consoles that offer service reminder, side stand indicator and other important information. Passion xPro has witnessed a bigger change in overall design as it offers tank shrouds and sporty front fascia when compared to Passion Pro.
