The Company will introduce its Euro 5+ compliant product portfolio, led by the XPulse 200 4V series. With this launch, Germany becomes Hero MotoCorp’s fifth European market and its 53rd market globally. The Company celebrated its market entry with an exclusive launch event at Motorworld Metzingen, one of Germany’s premier automotive destinations. The debut featured a curated urban riding experience, giving guests a firsthand look at the lineup's performance, technology, and rider-focused innovation. Commenting on the launch, Mr. Sanjay Bhan, Executive Vice President - Global Business, Global Product Planning and Global Market Insights, Hero MotoCorp, said, "Germany represents a defining milestone in Hero MotoCorp’s global growth journey. Building on our presence in Italy, Spain, France and the UK, our entry now into Europe’s largest economy reflects the growing strength of our global business and our long-term commitment to the region. German riders value precision engineering, quality, and performance - principles at the core of our products. Our Euro 5+ portfolio delivers on these expectations while offering an accessible yet aspirational ownership experience. We are thrilled to bring our world-class mobility solutions to this vibrant motorcycling market in partnership with the KSR Group.” To support this rollout, KSR Group will initially launch Hero MotoCorp product range through a network of more than 28 official sales and service outlets across major German cities, with plans of rapid expansion across the country. In addition, an extensive network of authorized dealers and technical service centers will provide seamless after-sales support with reliable service and commercial assistance. Reinforcing its commitment to German riders, Hero MotoCorp will offer an industry-leading five-year warranty, which includes a three-year standard warranty and an additional 2 years through a special launch offer.

Hero MotoCorp and KSR Group share the same customer-first approach, with a clear focus on delivering a seamless ownership experience through a strong and expanding sales and service network. The launch portfolio, consisting of the XPulse 200 in two versions, offers German customers an attractive combination of modern technology, everyday usability and outstanding value.
