    Now the Achiever 150 really has not been designed to woo those of us with performance on our minds. However, the bike isn’t just a re-skin of an existing motorcycle, similar to what we’ve seen in the past. Even though Hero has consistently been at the head of the sales chart for many years now, and produced over 70 million motorcycles until today, the company is keeping a sharp eye on developing this fledging segment. In fact, the 70  millionth bike rolled out by the company was an Achiever 150 and to celebrate that fact, a special-edition (70 units) version of the bike has been released. Hero has really worked on this updated Achiever. And to top it off, at Rs 61,800 for the drum-brake variant and Rs 62,800 for the disc-brake variant (both prices ex-showroom, Delhi), it’s good value as well, putting it in the perfect position for commuters stepping up from the 125cc segment. So as a premium commuter motorcycle that is easy to ride, well made, frugal and economical, this updated Achiever 150 certainly checks all the right boxes.
