In 2010, Hero Honda has started to brand its bikes under APDV, ASFS and ATFT acronyms..
No "blog/site" has so far noticed it that in 2010 Hero Honda has quite deliberately started to brand its 100 cc models with the APDV, its 125 cc models with ASFS and its 150 cc range with ATFT acronym.
Let’s see after this particular post of mine how many "similar" posts come up and on which blogs and how fast. Kindly ping me if you come across similar posts on other blogs/sites.
The refreshed 100 cc models of Hero Honda in 2010 Splendor Pro, Passion Pro and the Splendor NXG (barring the budget models CD Dawn and CD Deluxe), all sport the APDV tag somewhere on its body panels.
What is APDV?
I have found out (Hallelujah.. at last!!) APDV stands for "Advanced Pro Series Digital Variable Ignition System". Although I have not found any accompanying literature with it, the term probably means that the ignition of the spark plugs in these motorcycles is controlled digitally. Which should benefit in better and more efficient combustion of fuel.
