Objective
The XPulse is an adventure bike, which means it only makes sense off the road. Showing it to customers on a showroom floor sells nothing. Hero needed customers on the bike, in the terrain it was built for.
The XPulse is an adventure bike, which means it only makes sense off the road. Showing it to customers on a showroom floor sells nothing. Hero needed customers on the bike, in the terrain it was built for.
Built the days as rides, not demos. Customers put on the bike in dirt and dust, with a timed track-day format and numbered bibs so it read as competition rather than a test ride. Shot through the dust instead of around it, with the Hero branding framing the action rather than sitting apart from it.
Two days of customer riding delivered, plus a stills set built for speed and grit rather than product laydowns.
