Upcoming Hero Xoom 125 Spied, Could It Be An Aprilia SR 125 Rival?
The scooter appears to be different from the design patent that recently surfaced online
A new sporty scooter from Hero has been spotted in Jaipur. The bikemaker had earlier revealed that it will be launching a 125cc version of the Hero Xoom 110 later this year, and the test mule is likely to be the same. It could be called the Hero Xoom 125. Unlike the earlier design patent, this scooter has a relatively more subdued appearance.
The scooter has a muscular and sporty-looking apron, but its floorboard is relatively short, giving it a more compact appearance. The side panels are bulky yet muscular, featuring multiple cuts and slashes. Notably, the scooter seems to have large 14-inch wheels. It also sports split grab rails and a contoured single-piece seat. The presence of LED indicators suggests that the headlight and tail light may also be LED units. The instrument cluster is expected to be a full-LCD unit, possibly with smartphone connectivity with turn-by-turn navigation.
Additional features include a telescopic fork with a front disc, cubby holes on the apron, a rear mono-shock, and a sleek exhaust. With its larger wheels and sporty bodywork, the upcoming 125cc Hero scooter seems to be a direct rival to the Aprilia SR125. Other alternatives include the TVS NTorq 125, Suzuki Burgman Street, Honda Grazia, and Yamaha RayZR 125 Fi Hybrid.
The Hero Xoom 125 is anticipated to have an ex-showroom price of around Rs 90,000-95,000 and could be launched in December of this year. This scooter offers Hero another opportunity to enter the sporty 125cc segment, which the Hero Maestro Edge 125 was not able to crack successfully.
Hero Xoom 125 User Reviews
I chose it because it comes with 14 inches big wheel which are excellent at this price. It also has extensive and reliable service network. On top of that, it looks really very good. Mileage is good too. I have ridden it for around 2700 km. There was a slight vibration around 30-40km/h but the service center fixed it for free of cost. I ride it quite aggressively so I think that might happen. Nice experience. Yes, I brought it for 1.05k and in that price, its an excellent machine. It gives good mileage around 40-42km in the city and it should be even better on highway. The 14 inches wheels make ride better.Read More

Recently bought this scooter for my daily use and I am a college going student in Bengaluru but bought this scooter in my hometown. Overall this is a very good scooter for this young nd energetic generation, if u are fond of Chunky design and a big road presence then it's a must go scooter. This is scooter not so suitable for family buyers as it can accommodate 2 members comfortably and the pillion seat is higher on its side so elder people can't seat that easily and even u have to compromise in boot space which is a less for carrying luggage or other things, but on terms of performance and stability it stands out. Also I am getting a better mileage with this scooter( city 40-45, highway 45-55). But breaking would have been improved in this scooter and also horn is not suitable for peak bengaluru traffic it's not loud enough. And also usb charging port would have been placed n a better side. But my overall experience with this scooter is great till now, if u are looking for a sporty scooter then go for it ..... Read More
