What are design highlights of the 2025 Hero Glamour X?
The new Hero Glamour X comes with a refreshed look, highlighted by an H-shaped LED headlamp and tail lamp, along with LED turn indicators. Wider nylon handlebar grips and improved pillion seating further enhance practicality and rider comfort. The bike offers a relaxed upright riding stance, aided by a wide handlebar and slightly forward-set footpegs. With a 790 mm seat height and 170 mm ground clearance, it ensures ease of handling for city and highway rides.
What features does the 2025 Hero Glamour X get?
The Glamour X is equipped with ride-by-wire technology, an electronic throttle body, and even cruise control, while retaining a kick-start option that many modern bikes lack. It also includes a panic brake alert for emergencies and an ambient light sensor that automatically adjusts the instrument cluster's theme.
The coloured LCD offers over 60 features, including turn-by-turn navigation, ride mode selection, gear position indicator, distance-to-empty, i3s on/off indicator, date and time, and cruise mode status, making it one of the most feature-rich bikes in its segment. Adding to convenience, the Glamour X offers underseat storage that can fit two mobile phones, a tool kit, and a first-aid kit. It also comes with a 2A Type-C USB charging port for fast smartphone charging on the go.
How much performance does the 2025 Hero Glamour X offer?
Power comes from the advanced Sprint-EBT 125cc, air-cooled, 4-stroke engine with fuel injection, producing 11.4 bhp at 8,250 rpm and 10.5 Nm at 6,500 rpm. A balancer shaft and silent cam chain help reduce vibrations, ensuring smoothness. Hero has also optimised cam profiles and gear ratios for better throttle response.
The bike offers three riding modes: Eco for efficiency, Power for spirited riding, and Road for everyday balance. A bass-rich exhaust note adds a big-bike character, while Hero's AERA Tech further improves throttle precision and refinement. Riders also get the convenience of both a self-start and a reliable kick-start option, a rare feature in modern motorcycles.
Which colours are available on the 2025 Hero Glamour X?
The bike is offered in five colours. The drum brake variant is available in Matt Magnetic Silver and Candy Blazing Red, while the disc brake variant comes in Metallic Nexus Blue, Black Teal Blue, and Black Pearl Red.

Hero Glamour X vs Hero Glamour: Comparing the new-age premium against the old reliable
Hero MotoCorp has expanded its 125 cc commuter lineup with the launch of the Glamour X 125, a model that adds a premium twist to one of the brand's most familiar motorcycles. While the standard Glamour remains on sale, the new Glamour X is being positioned as a more tech-heavy option, featuring additions previously unseen in this segment. Here's how the two compare. Hero Glamour X vs Hero Glamour: Styling The original Hero Glamour has always played the role of a no-frills commuter. Its straightforward design is built around practicality, looking modest alongside newer competitors. The Glamour X, however, takes ot a notch up. With a redesigned H-shaped headlamp, a small visor, more beefed-up fuel-tank cladding with the 'X' badge, and more angular bodywork, it projects a sportier stance.

The standard Glamour offers a digital instrument panel, but it is basic in function. The Glamour X upgrades to a full-colour TFT display, complete with Bluetooth connectivity, navigation support, and brightness adjustment. Most notably, the Glamour X introduces cruise control, a first for the 125cc commuter class in India. It also comes with ride-by-wire technology and selectable ride modes: Eco, Road and Power. These additions significantly expand the motorcycle's appeal for riders looking beyond everyday utility. Hero Glamour X vs Hero Glamour: Hardware and underpinnings Under the skin, both models are almost identical. Suspension duties are handled by a telescopic fork at the front and twin shocks at the rear. Braking options remain the same as well, with either a front disc or drum paired with a rear drum. Neither variant is offered with ABS. Both motorcycles also roll on 18-inch alloy wheels, reinforcing their commuter-friendly orientation. Hero Glamour X vs Hero Glamour: Performance Powering the Glamour is a 125cc single-cylinder engine producing 10.68 bhp and 10.4 Nm of torque, paired with a five-speed gearbox. The Glamour X uses the same displacement, but with a tune identical to the Xtreme 125. It delivers 11.40 bhp at 8,250 rpm and 10.5 Nm at 6,500 rpm. On paper, the difference may seem marginal, but the ride modes and throttle response from the ride-by-wire system should give the Glamour X a noticeable edge in real-world use. Also Read : Hero HF Deluxe Pro launched at ₹73,550, comes with i3S tech Hero Glamour X vs Hero Glamour: Pricing Hero has priced the two motorcycles in a way that keeps the choice competitive. The Glamour is available in two variants, with prices starting at ₹87,198 for the drum version and going up to ₹91,198 for the disc. The Glamour X, despite its richer feature list, is only slightly more expensive. The drum version costs ₹89,999, while the disc tops out at ₹99,999. (All prices ex-showroom) Hero Glamour X vs Hero Glamour: Key takeaway The Hero Glamour remains the tried-and-tested commuter for buyers who want reliability and affordability with little fuss. The Glamour X, meanwhile, marks a shift towards premiumisation in the 125cc space, offering segment-first features like cruise control and ride modes at a relatively accessible price. For conservative buyers, the Glamour continues to deliver value. For those willing to spend a little extra, the Glamour X stands out as a commuter with ambition. Check out Upcoming Bikes In India.
