The phase-wise expansion plan has begun with the inauguration of the first Exclusive Hero MotoCorp Store in the Uruca, which is an important industrial and commercial area of San José. The store will display 13 motorcycles across segments and have separate spare parts and workshop areas. Subsequently, two more stores will be opened in Alajuela and Paseo Colon.
In the next phase of expansion, four more Hero MotoCorp stores will come up in Heredia, Cartago, Liberia and Nicoya and later the network will be spread to all key regions of the country.

Globally popular motorcycles such as the Hero Xpulse 200 Advance and Hero Hunk 160R will be introduced with refreshed styling. The portfolio will also include Hunk 150, Xpulse 200T, and Dash 125.
