Hero HF Deluxe I3S E20 FAQ

Is E20 petrol safe for Hero HF Deluxe I3S?

Confirmed E20 compatible. The Hero HF Deluxe I3S has been cleared for 20% ethanol petrol since April 2023.

Will my HF Deluxe I3S give less mileage on E20?

E20 reduces mileage by roughly 3-5%. The HF Deluxe I3S's BS6 Phase 2 calibration minimizes this. Higher octane in E20 (RON 95 vs E10's RON 91) helps combustion quality.

E20 is safe in the HF Deluxe I3S. The fuel injection system, hoses, and seals are rated for 20% ethanol. Maintain regular oil changes and filter replacements.
