     The logo consists of Hero with capital H and rest of the letters in lowercase. The logo also consists of a triangle, a parallelogram and a trapezoid all put together form “H” representing Hero in 3D.


     Ranbir Kapoor has been pulled by the company as the brand ambassador and A R Rahman has composed new anthem for the brand.

Hero MotoCorp’s first bike spied

     Hero Honda recently changed then name to Hero MotoCorp and the first bike from the company under the new name has been spied by Autocarindia. Autocarindia reader Prateek Kandelwal from Uttarakand managed to get the spy picture of the bike.


     As seen in the picture, the bike looks to be a dirt bike, note the raised front mudguards. The engine capacity could be from 150-250cc capacity and the bike will be mainly aimed at youth. A dirt bike concept had also been incorporated by Bajaj Auto few years back but could not do well in the longer run. Hero MotoCorp want to tap the dirt bike market which is not present in India at present. After all it’s the price factor which decides the vehicle’s success in India. Hero with its strong experience would definitely price this bike within reach.

“The change in name is the first big step towards further strengthening the company’s leadership in the two-wheeler industry. It marks the beginning of a new era of innovations – be it in the field of technology and product development or customer satisfaction and expanding our footprint across global markets. While I am announcing a new name for the company today, I assure you there is much more to follow. Do wait for August 9, 2011 for the unveiling of the brand new identity of Hero MotoCorp Ltd and the excitement that will unfold in the near future.”
