Central America is an emerging market much like India; hence, small-capacity motorcycles and scooters are also quite popular there. Moreover, customers in both markets have an affinity for offerings that offer low cost of ownership, are stylish and offer decent performance for the price. The Hero motorcycle and scooter range is made in India and exported to Costa Rica.
