MUMBAI: When thunder strikes twice, it only gets louder. Thums Up and Hero Motocorp are back with Thunderwheels 2.0, a high-octane sequel to last year’s blockbuster partnership, this time giving young India the chance to ride off on the all-new Hero xtreme 250R.
The campaign fuses Thums Up’s legendary ‘Toofani’ spirit with Hero’s engineering prowess, serving up a motorcycle that embodies individuality, power, and raw thrill. The Xtreme 250R, a premium 250cc streetfighter, is built for riders who live life on the edge, just like the cola brand’s daredevil persona.
The hook? “Dum hai toh scan kar.” Special-edition Thums Up packs now feature QR codes that unlock the chance to win the Xtreme 250R, along with a series of energetic, action-packed experiences.
Hero Motocorp, head of marketing – India BU, Aashish Midha said: “The phenomenal response to Thunderwheels last year reaffirmed how deeply this connects with the new generation of riders. With the Xtreme 250R, we’re delivering a machine designed for those who ride with intent: agile, powerful, and stylish.”
Coca-cola India, category head – Sparkling Flavors, Sumeli Chatterjee added: “Every Thums Up experience is built to fuel adrenaline. Thunderwheels 2.0, with Hero’s xtreme 250R, is all about engaging thrill seekers and inspiring them to be unstoppable in their dreams.”
The campaign will thunder across screens and feeds with a full-blown 360 rollout, from TV and digital films to influencer activations and artist collaborations, celebrating the spirit of bold self-expression.
With Thunderwheels 2.0, Hero and Thums Up aren’t just selling a bike or a bottle, they’re bottling the rush of adventure, daring India’s youth to taste the thunder and ride the storm.
