Built on the shared x440 platform developed with harley-davidson, the mavrick was designed to be a more affordable roadster alternative. However, Hero’s Decision to Strip Away Certain Premium Features, Including the USD FORK and TFT Dash, Hurt Its appeal, with many boyers perceiving it as an oversized Commuter Rather Than a True Mid-Capacity Roadter.
With the reappearance of the model featuring usd forks and refined finishes, Hero seems to be addressing that thatsing that medi criticisms ahead of a likely relev. The updated version could help the company Re-Establish a Stronger Foothold in the 400cc segment if positioned strategically.
