Bharat Mobility Expo 2025: Hero Centennial Showcased at Auto Show

The Hero Centennial, a limited-edition motorcycle, was revealed at the 2025 Auto Expo, honouring Dr Brijmohan Lall Munjal, founder of the Hero Group. Limited to 100 units, 75 have been auctioned back in back in September 2024, with the highest bid reaching Rs 20.30 lakh. The remaining 25 units were given to employees and customers through exclusive contests. The Centennial was conceived, designed, and developed by Hero at its Centre for Innovation and Technology (CIT) in Jaipur, alongside the Hero Tech Centre in Germany (TCG).

In addition to the Centennial, Hero showcased the rugged Thor Dakar Bike and launched new models, including the XPulse 210, Xtreme 250, and the Xoom 125 and 160. With that said, here is everything you need to know about the Hero Centennial.

Hero Centennial: Design

The Centennial, built on the Hero Karizma 210 platform, showcases unique design and craftsmanship. Carbon fibre and milled aluminium are used throughout, combining visual appeal with mechanical precision.

At first glance, the Centennial displays a sporty, aggressive look. Its sharp bikini fairing and dual-pod LED headlamps give the bike a bold presence. The exposed frame, swingarm, engine cover, and front forks are finished in red, enhancing the Centennial’s sporty contrast.

The muscular fuel tank with carbon fibre extensions, solo seat with a carbon fibre seat cowl, and floating tail section further highlight its aggressive design. Each Centennial features a unique identity with a milled aluminium special edition numbered badge on its side covers.

Hero Centennial: Mechanicals

The Hero Centennial is powered by a 210cc liquid-cooled engine, the same as the Karizma, but features an Akrapovic exhaust for enhanced performance. At 158kg, it is 5.5kg lighter than the Karizma 210.
