Hero Mavrick 440 Relaunch Spied with USD
Hero MotoCorp will relaunch the Mavrick 440 in India with a new variant. Spy shots show it will have upside-down front forks and a TFT instrument cluster.
Hero MotoCorp is set to relaunch its Mavrick 440 motorcycle in India. A new variant featuring upside-down (USD) front forks and a TFT instrument cluster has been spied, according to a report from Rushlane.
The spy images, posted on Reddit by user xtremeAnkit, show a test bike with a fuel tank badge reading 'Mavrick 440'. This confirms the model is intended for the Indian market. The motorcycle was previously delisted from Hero's official website.
Spied Features and Design
The spied motorcycle is equipped with USD telescopic front forks finished in a gold shade. It also features a portrait-style TFT instrument cluster. This screen is similar to the one offered on the Harley-Davidson X440, which shares its platform with the Mavrick. The TFT display is expected to support features like turn-by-turn navigation, call and SMS alerts, and smartphone app connectivity.
This specific USD fork and TFT combination was first showcased by Hero MotoCorp at the EICMA Show in 2024. It was later seen in India during a TVC shoot branded as the Hunk 440, a model name used for international markets.
Launch Strategy and Pricing
Hero MotoCorp may offer the USD forks and TFT cluster as standard equipment on the relaunched Mavrick 440. The report suggests this strategy is likely because the company implemented a similar change with the Karizma XMR 210. On that model, USD forks and a TFT cluster were initially offered only on a 'Top' variant but were later made standard, removing the previous base variant from the lineup.
Pricing for the Mavrick 440 is expected to see a slight increase compared to its last recorded prices after the GST 2.0 reforms. The exact new price was not specified in the source. For more detailed specifications on Hero's models, you can visit our stats page.
Technical Specifications
The core mechanical specifications are expected to remain unchanged from the previous model. The powertrain will continue to be a 440cc, single-cylinder, oil-cooled engine. It produces 27.36 brake horsepower and 36 Newton-meters of torque. This engine is paired with a six-speed gearbox and a slipper clutch.
