The bravehearts who protect our borders, rescue people during national calamities and suffer immense hardships, so that citizens can feel safe and secured often remain unsung and unacknowledged. We at Hero MotoCorp wanted to help bring the real heroes onto the national centre stage.
A clarion call to all Indians to pay reverence to the armed forces by saluting the soldiers, on any interaction with them.
Hero took the lead with all earnestness, respect and sensitivity to echo the sentiments of the nation at a time when India conducted a surgical strike against terrorist positions on September 29, 2016.
The launch of this campaign on the same day caught the nation’s attention. Eventually, the campaign took a life of its own. People from various parts of the country, joined #Herosalutes to show respect to the Indian armed forces. It became an expression of people’s solidarity with the armed forces.
A PROUD NATION SALUTES ITS BRAVEST HEROES.
During the year, we crossed the milestone of producing 70 million two-wheelers, becoming the only Indian two-wheeler Company to achieve this honour. The achievement is a testimony to the growing popularity of our wide range of two-wheelers in India and the world.
To commemorate the achievement, which coincides with India’s 70th year of Independence, we also launched a Limited-Edition Achiever 150. Clad in the colour of patriotism, only 70 units of the Limited-Edition Achiever 150 were manufactured.
We are now gearing up to reach the 100 million mark.
