Hero
Maestro Edge
The
new variant of the Maestro nameplate is underpinned by the company’s all-new
homegrown platform, with almost no technical relation to the original Hero Maestro scooter. It features an all-new
styling, previewed by the Hero Dash prior
to the 2014 Auto Expo.
The Edge wears a plastic body that is crafted to complement male riders a
little more than the female audience.
Likely
to be the most expensive scooter in Hero’s lineup (pending the release of Hero
Duet’s pricing), the Maestro Edge features sharp styling with the use of a
large handlebar-mounted headlamp, a pair of apron-mounted turn indicators,
dual-tone rear view mirrors, a wide LED tail light cluster, motorcycle-like
exhaust, and black alloy wheels.
Like
the platform, the powertrain of the Maestro Edge is also totally new and
developed in-house by Hero MotoCorp in association with its technical partners.
It is a 111 cc engine mated to a CVT, that produces 8.43 PS of power at 8,000
rpm and 8.30 Nm of torque at 6,500 rpm.
