    Hero Destini 125 Facelift Sketch Leaks – Rear Design Revealed Before Launch

    Hero Destini 125 Facelift Sketch Leaks – Current vs NewHero MotoCorp is getting ready to launch the facelifted Destini 125 scooter – Ahead of that, new details have leakedAfter losing the No 1 spot to Honda, Hero MotoCorp, is on a mission to increase its market share in scooter segment. Hero wants to democratise 125cc scooters further by updating its Destini 125 scooter. Spy shots of the front-right quarter of this scooter had already leaked. Now we get to see the rear section in design trademarks filed by the brand.Hero Destini 125 Facelift Sketch LeaksIf we take a look at India’s 125cc scooter segment, every other contender has a price tag upwards of Rs 82,000 (Ex-sh). However, Hero MotoCorp is being the good guy here and offers Destini 125 Prime (base model) for a starting price of Rs 71,499 (Ex-sh, Delhi). This is big for Hero MotoCorp as rival 125cc scooters cost about Rs. 10,000 to Rs. 46,000 more (ex-sh).Hero Destini 125 Facelift Design TrademarkSo, there is potential in Destini platform, but it needs some sprucing to significantly boost sales and feature in top 10 scooters. That’s exactly what Hero is doing. From the previous leaked images of the Destini facelift, we can see a radically more mature product than what Destini currently is.There has been an attempt to transform Destini 125 into a more stylish and sophisticated product than before. Front apron has been significantly overhauled to establish a unique design. There are new alloy wheels and depending on variants, Hero is also offering a front disc brake as well.Hero Destini 125 Facelift. Image – TeamBHPThe new design trademarks from Hero MotoCorp shows the Destini facelift from the back and reveals most of its side profile too. We can see more minimal side body panels with a new exhaust cover. From this angle, there seem to be similarities with Yamaha Fascino. Current Destini’s large and awkward tail lights and rear turn indicators have been made sleeker on facelift.There is a stepped seat for a sporty look and pillion backrest has been redesigned too. The large storage behind the apron has been removed and we now get a small cubby where one can place their phone. There doesn’t seem to be any smart key implementation here and the external fuel filler lid has also been redesigned.Next-Gen Hero Destini Scooter Vs Current ModelWhat to expect?Hero will continue to offer XTEC Bluetooth connectivity in top models. As seen from the new design trademarks, there seems to be a new instrument cluster and we hope there is a TFT screen with turn-by-turn navigation too. Along with that, LED headlights, USB charging port, boot lamp, front disc brake, i3S stop start system,Mechanically, Hero Destini 125 facelift is likely to retain its powertrain from current Destini. It is a 124.6cc single-cylinder air-cooled engine. This engine generates 9 bhp of peak power at 7,000 RPM and 10.36 Nm of peak torque at 5,500 RPM. Fuel efficiency claimed by Hero MotoCorp on current model is 56 km/l.Current Hero Destini 125 XTECWe can expect a slight price hike as opposed to current Hero Destini 125 Prime and Destini 125. But it will continue to significantly undercut its immediate 125cc rivals. Launch is likely to be right around the corner. Say September 2024.Also read – Hero Xpulse 210 with Karizma engine spied More

Hero Xtreme 160R has been updated to MY24 with a few feature additions along with improvements in componentry. The bike was just launched. Let’s take a look at what’s new.2024 Hero Xtreme 160R 4V LaunchedIn June 2023, Hero MotoCorp launched the new Xtreme 160R with USD telescopic front forks and a host of other features. With this launch, Hero offered a 4V head, oil cooling setup and USD telescopic front forks along with a striking design with premium LED lighting to appeal to young riders.2024 Hero Xtreme 160R 4V – FeaturesAt the time, many enthusiasts felt that Hero should have offered dual-channel ABS to make Xtreme 160R 4V a more complete and rounded-off product. Come July 2024, Hero MotoCorp is doing just that and is ensuring there are more features inbound to better rival the offerings from rivals like TVS and Honda.New 2024 Hero Xtreme 160R 4V has been launched with improved features list and addition of Dual-Channel ABS.

    Hero Xpulse 210 Spied With Karizma’s 210cc Engine – New Details!

    Hero Xpulse 210 SpiedUpcoming Hero Xpulse 210 spied, hints at a larger fuel tank and aerodynamic tank shrouds that should prove beneficial for cruisingAfter a long gap, Hero Xpulse 210 spy shots have made an appearance again. Maybe the testing was always active, but test mules went unnoticed owing to the stark similarities with Xpulse 200 4V. Either way, we’re excited to see Hero’s commitment to this product and we wish it launches soon.Hero Xpulse 210 SpiedThe concept of Karizma engine in a Hero ADV is nothing new. There are many Karipulse (horrendous name, though) out there blazing the trails. These were old Karizma engines mated to Impulse chassis by a few Hero dealerships. For track-use only, as these weren’t road-legal.A concept so good, that Hero MotoCorp is considering making one for the road. This is a culmination of Xpulse 200 4V chassis with the new 210cc DOHC 4V liquid-cooled engine debuted with Karizma XMR 210. With this new engine, Xpulse will be bestowed with a 6-speed gearbox, slipper clutch and other attributes.Looking at the new spy shots, we can’t help but conclude that this is very close to production-spec. We say this because the previous set of spy shots taken from Leh Ladakh region in 2023 did not feature any additional design elements. The new spy shots, however, show aerodynamic tank shrouds and a larger fuel tank (please be 17L).Upcoming Hero Xpulse 210Hero MotoCorp seems to be testing out the touring capabilities of Xpulse 210 with aftermarket panniers. Conversely speaking, these might be Hero’s own panniers to be launched alongside the Xpulse 210. Attributes like tall windscreen, knuckle guards, rear luggage rack, a front beak, high ground clearance are carried over.What to expect?Xpulse 200 4V was a significant upgrade over the 2V with added refinement and performance. However, Xpulse 200 4V can’t be the only motorcycle in one’s garage as it lacks grunt for higher highway cruising speeds. Karizma’s 210cc engine packs 25.15 bhp of peak power and 20.4 Nm of peak torque.6.25 bhp and 3.05 Nm more than the current Xpulse 200 4V. The 6th gear, higher engine speeds, smoother liquid-cooled setup and the larger fuel tank of upcoming Xpulse 210 will ensure a better highway cruising experience and improved overall rideability. Dual-channel ABS might be added on top of all the componentry Xpulse 200 4V currently gets.Hero Xpulse 210 spotted testingFeatures-wise, we will get LED headlights, H-shaped LED DRLs, LED tail lights, engine cut-off sensor, engine kill switch, a fully digital instrument cluster with Bluetooth connectivity and turn-by-turn navigation, USB charging port (Type-C, we hope). The spy shot showed 21-inch front and 18-inch rear wire-spoke alloys as current Xpulse, front and rear disc brakes and others.We hope there is a Pro variant too, with fully adjustable front and rear suspension with significantly higher suspension travel and ground clearance to fully unlock the off-roading potential of this platform. Hero Xpulse 210 comes close to being the one motorcycle in the garage philosophy. At around Rs 1.6 lakh (Ex-sh), this would be something I’d personally buy.Also read – Hero Xpulse 440 spied testingSource – Motoroctane More

    New Hero Centennial Launched – Limited To 100 Units, Sales Via Auction

    Hero Centennial Based On Karisma XMR 210Even though the differences to Hero Centennial are vast over Karizma XMR 210, the company didn’t mention increase in power and torqueAt the grand stage of Mavrick 440 launch, Hero MotoCorp also showcased a few of their upcoming vehicles. We’re not talking about Xoom 160 and Xoom 125R scooters soon to launch in India. Instead, we’re talking about the extremely limited (100 units) Karizma-based Hero CE limited edition motorcycle that will be auctioned soon.Hero Centennial To Be Auctioned SoonWhen the Karizma was launched, Indian motorcycling fraternity yearned for a sportier version. The company has answered this call and unveiled Hero Centennial. At the time of unveiling, it was referred to as Karizma CE (Commemorative Edition). Thus signifying the fact that it was positioned on a standard Karizma XMR 210.Hero Karizma CEKarizma CE was Hero’s attempt to commemorate 101st birth anniversary of Late Dr Brijmohan Lall Munjal, the founder of Hero MotoCorp. Now, Karizma CE has taken a definitive name and is being called ‘The Centennial’, which is the sportiest form that Karizma can aspire to be. Despite being based on a Karizma XMR 210, it is quite unique in its positioning.That’s because the sportiest Karizma will not be launched for the mainstream market. Hero MotoCorp is launching only 100 units of Centennial and will be auctioned off to company employees, business partners and stakeholders as a collectors item. Contributions from the auction will be utilized for greater good of the society, signifying founder’s ethos.Hero Karizma CEAccording to Hero MotoCorp, the Centennial was designed and developed by CIT (Hero Centre for Innovation and Technology) in India and TCG (Hero Tech Centre in Germany). All 100 units of the Centennial are meticulously crafted with excellent craftsmanship and premium components that are not seen with standard Karizma.Hero Centennial Based On Karisma XMR 210Also, Hero MotoCorp has greenlighted ‘My Hero, My Story’ campaign. Where Hero customers can take part and share an anecdote of their journey with their Hero motorcycle. Top entries from this campaign will be selected and awarded with a Centennial motorcycle. The company didn’t specify how many Centennials will be reserved for this campaign.What does Centennial get extra?When compared to the standard Hero MotoCorp Karizma XMR 210, Centennial is a lot more comprehensive in its equipment. For starters, it gets a unique semi-fairing and rear seat cowl made entirely out of carbon fiber along with other body panels. Hero has used anodised and machined aluminium on the triple clamp, handlebars, rear-set foot pegs, handlebar mounts and swingarm, unique to Centennial.Hero Centennial Based On Karisma XMR 210There is upgraded componentry in the form of fully-adjustable mono-shock suspension from Wilbers, 43mm USD telescopic front forks with damping adjustment, a titanium exhaust from Akrapovic and others.
