Hero MotoCorp, India’s leading manufacturer of motorcycles and scooters, has successfully concluded the auction for its exclusive “Centennial” bike, a collector’s edition model.
The auction, which began in July 2024, was organized to raise funds for charity. The company has announced that a total of ₹8.58 crore has been raised, with 75 of the 100 limited-edition bikes sold.
Bikes Sold for Up to ₹20 Lakh
Among the 75 bikes auctioned, the highest bid reached ₹20.30 lakh for the bike with CE100 number.
This premium edition was in high demand, and Hero MotoCorp managed to secure significant funds through the sale of these exclusive bikes.
What About the Remaining 25 Bikes?
While 75 units were sold, 25 bikes from the exclusive batch will not be auctioned. Instead, these remaining bikes will be reserved for Hero MotoCorp’s employees and customers through special contests.
These units will be kept at the company’s facility and offered as part of promotional activities.
How to Win a Centennial Bike?
Hero MotoCorp has launched an AI-powered contest, giving over 118 million customers the opportunity to win one of these exclusive bikes. The contest involves two steps:
- Customers must send a photo along with a story about how Hero’s bike has impacted their life to myheroforever@heromotocorp.com.
- They must also share their photo or video on social media with the hashtag #MyForeverHero.
A panel will then review all entries and select the most inspiring stories to determine the winners.
