Hero MotoCorp has done a great job with the Maestro Edge. We said that in our first ride report. And honestly, it is a scooter we would happily recommend to many. But, since we first rode it, there’s one question we wanted an answer to: Is the Hero Maestro Edge the best 110cc scooter in the market today? To find out, we have lined up two worthy benchmarks. In the shiny grey corner is the Honda Activa. It is India’s highest selling scooter and has been so for what seems like eternity. In the not-so-shiny – or let’s just say matte – grey corner is the TVS Jupiter. The Jupiter sells well too but we have it here because as far as 110cc scooters go, it really is the benchmark in more areas than one.
Not so much in terms of styling, though. Between the three, the Hero Maestro Edge is without a doubt the best-looking scooter. It has creases and sharp lines and change in surfaces and lots of detailing all round. It makes both the Honda Activa and the TVS Jupiter look dated. The Hero also has the best-looking clocks and a smart flip-to-open lid for the fuel filler on top the tail lamps. And the tail lamps – LED units – look modern and upmarket too.
