After Hero Xpulse 200 4V, the company is rushing out more of its two-wheelers. The launch of the new Hero Pleasure Plus XTEC scooter is scheduled for tomorrow. The scooter was first introduced in collaboration with HeroHonda back in 2006. The scooter ever since got a few minor updates and stayed evergreen. But now Hero MotoCorp has done a mind-blowing job in redesigning the scooter entirely. Not only visual updates can be seen, but we can also see some updates on the smart tech used by the company.
