New Hero Glamour 125 launch likely this festive season, to receive cruise control
Hero MotoCorp is gearing up to expand its 125 cc motorcycle lineup with the launch of the new Glamour 125, which is likely to hit the market sometime next month, during the festive season. The upcoming Hero Glamour 125 was recently spotted during a test run. This is expected to rejuvenate the 125 cc segment in the Indian motorcycle market soon. The images leaked gave us a clear idea about the upcoming motorcycle and its features. The new model will not come incorporating just a small upgrade, but looks like the next generation avatar instead. The new Hero Glamour 125 will come with a new switchgear and a fully digital, large instrument cluster. There is a cruise control button, which is a fresh feature addition to the segment. The cruise control toggle button comes integrated on the right side switchgear, under the ignition button. The left side switchgear is also new and comes with buttons to navigate through the new LCD screen, which looks like the same unit used on the Hero Karizma XMR 210 and the Hero Xtreme 250R. The instrument cluster adds premium appeal to the motorcycle, as well as showing a wide range of information. Some other key features of the upcoming Hero Glamour 125 will include Bluetooth connectivity for the instrument cluster. There will be turn-by-turn navigation, alerts for SMS and calls. The motorcycle will get a USB charging point as standard. Besides these interesting features, enhancing the rider convenience and premium quotient of the motorcycle, expect the upcoming model to come with a major design overhaul as well. However, on the hardware front, the Hero Glamour 125 would remain unchanged. Upon launch, expect it to replace the current model and compete with rivals like the Honda CB Shine, which currently leads the 125 cc motorcycle segment in the Indian two-wheeler market.

New Hero Glamour 125 Spied With New Cluster, Cruise Control
Hero MotoCorp seems to be working on taking the next step to improve the commuter motorcycle segment by bringing in some unforeseen features in the segment. To begin with, a test mule of Glamour 125 has been spotted with a digital instrument cluster. While that seems like something that we have seen on multiple motorcycles in the segment, the brand also seems to be testing cruise control, which is offered on bikes of a higher segment. Although the test mule spotted is well-covered in camouflage, it is speculated to be the Hero Glamour 125. However, the information is not officially confirmed yet. Based on the pictures, the bike is going to carry forward the conventional design seen in the segment with a slim body and a single-piece seat. Along with this, it seems to have commuter-style foot pegs, a saree guard, and a functional grab rail. The list of upgrades includes LED turn indicators, a fully digital colour LCD instrument cluster, a new switchgear, and a cruise control system. It is worth mentioning that cruise control is a feature better suited to motorcycles higher in hierarchy, like the Mavrick 440, Xpulse 210, or the Xtreme 250R. However, the brand seems to be breaking conventional norms to bring such features to the lower segment. While the details of the mechanics are not known, we can say that the Hero Glamour 125, even in this avatar, will have a conventional setup. The claim is further supported by the fact that the bike has telescopic front forks. Similarly, the rear end is expected to have dual-shock absorbers. Meanwhile, the powertrain duties will be taken care of by a 124.7 cc single-cylinder air-cooled engine kicking out 10 hp of power and 10 Nm of peak torque. It will be mated to a 5-speed gearbox. Once launched in the Indian market, the Hero Glamour 125 will find competition in the form of the TVS Raider 125 and others in the same segment.
