Has Honda created a worthy contender in the 100cc commuter segment?

There here was a point in time when Hero Honda ruled the commuter segment in India, as the Indian and Japanese companies worked hand in hand. When the two companies split by the end of 2010, there was the case of who got custody of what, and in the process, Hero Motocorp got to continue the production and sale of the Splendor. The bike went on to become one of the most popular models and is still in production to date, in the form of the updated Splendor Plus Xtec. The fact that it was developed with the Japanese manufacturer back then and is still relevant speaks volumes about its capability.

This brought about the question as to why Honda was refraining from re-entering the 100cc commuter segment for so long.
