Hero MotoCorp has officially launched the new Hero Glamour X, a next-generation commuter motorcycle designed with a mix of practicality and futuristic technology. The bike is grabbing headlines for being one of the first in its segment to feature cruise control and a gear shift indicator, making it both rider-friendly and modern.

Futuristic Features for Daily Riders

The highlight of the Hero Glamour X is its smart gear shift indicator. This feature alerts the rider about the right time to change gears, ensuring better fuel efficiency and smoother performance. Another standout addition is cruise control, a feature typically seen on premium motorcycles. This makes long-distance highway riding more comfortable, allowing the rider to maintain a steady speed without constant throttle input.

The bike also comes equipped with an all-digital instrument cluster, Bluetooth connectivity for call and SMS alerts, real-time mileage readout, and turn-by-turn navigation support.

Engine and Performance

The Hero Glamour X is powered by a refined 125cc BS6 engine, delivering strong mid-range performance suitable for both city commutes and occasional highway rides. It features Hero’s i3S technology (idle stop-start system) for improved fuel economy. The bike also gets telescopic front forks, a comfortable seat, and dual-shock absorbers at the rear to ensure a smooth riding experience.

Price and Variants

Hero MotoCorp has priced the new Glamour X competitively at around ₹90,000 – ₹95,000 (ex-showroom, India). With this aggressive pricing, Hero aims to attract young commuters who want style, technology, and efficiency in a single package. The motorcycle will be available in multiple color options and variants, including drum and disc brake models.

Market Impact

With the Glamour X, Hero MotoCorp has raised the benchmark in the commuter bike category. By introducing advanced features like gear shift indicators and cruise control at an affordable price, the brand is expected to gain an edge in the highly competitive 125cc segment. Rival models from Honda and TVS may soon face pressure as buyers shift toward bikes offering more value and tech.
