- Hero Mavrick 440 competes against the Royal Enfield Classic 350, Bajaj Dominar 400 and Jawa 350.
Back in February 2024, Hero MotoCorp launched its flagship motorcycle, the Mavrick 440 in the Indian market. It has been co-developed with the Harley-Davidson X440 so both motorcycles do share a few parts. Now, the brand has announced that they will start deliveries of the Mavrick 440 from 15th April.
Hero Mavrick 440 is offered in three variants – Base, Mid and Top. These are priced at ₹1.99 lakh, ₹2.14 lakh and ₹2.24 lakh. All prices are ex-showroom. The bookings are already open and the Mavrick will be sold only through Premia dealerships of Hero. People who booked the motorcycle before 15th March will also get Mavrick Kit of accessories and merchandise worth ₹10,000.
Where the Harley-Davidson is sort of a cruiser, the Mavrick 440 boasts a roadster design featuring a muscular fuel tank with a blend of modern and retro elements. Hero MotoCorp has utilized metal for the fuel tank, shrouds, and even the fenders. Illumination is provided by LEDs, while the digital speedometer incorporates a negative display and offers Bluetooth connectivity.
