New Delhi: Hero has launched its first ever 125cc automatic scooter, Destini, in India at a starting price of ₹ 54,650.
The Destini 125 will have an optional front disc brake and Integrated Braking System (IBS). Hero promises features such as external fuel filling provision, idle-start-stop-system (i3S system), boot light and mobile charging point.
The 125 cc single cylinder engine produces 8.7 bhp power and 10.2 Nm of torque.
Dr. Markus Braunsperger, Chief Technology officer, Hero MotoCorp Ltd, said. “We are introducing the new scooter, within just a few weeks of launching our new premium motorcycle- Xtreme 200R. This clearly demonstrates our robust in-house competency in designing and developing products in the premium segment. The Destini 125 is the only scooter in India today to offer the revolutionary i3S technology, in addition to providing a perfect balance of power and style. We have a strong pipeline of new products in both scooter and premium motorcycle segments, which we will launch in the coming months.”
The Hero Destini will compete against other 125 cc scooters such as Honda Activa 125, Suzuki Access and TVS NTorq.
