The Spec'd take

Why it stands out

  • Ride-by-wire with three ride modes (Eco, Road, Power) and cruise control from 29 to 81 km/h are tech you rarely see on a 125cc commuter.
  • The 10.7 cm adaptive colour console packs Bluetooth turn-by-turn navigation with ETA, call and SMS alerts and 60+ readouts.
  • Still frugal: Hero claims 65 kmpl on E20 fuel from the balancer-equipped Sprint EBT engine.
  • ABS on a 125cc commuter for Rs 1,01,000, only Rs 4,164 over the Disc version.
  • Thoughtful touches like Panic Brake Alert, a hazard switch, dual under-seat phone storage and a USB Type-C port.

Worth knowing

  • The ABS is single channel and the rear stays a 130 mm drum on every version.
  • At Rs 1,01,000 the ABS version is within about Rs 11,300 of Hero's own 160cc Xtreme 160R.
  • The Drum version makes do with a bulb tail lamp and bulb winkers.
  • At 125.5 to 128.5 kg it is heavier than simpler 125cc commuters, and 10.5 Nm is only average for the class.
