Hero Xtreme 125R gets a new single seat variant priced at ₹1.00 lakh. Soon, it will also become India’s second 125cc bike with cruise control after Glamour X. Check price, features, and rivals.
Hero MotoCorp is aggressively strengthening its position in the 125cc motorcycle segment. After introducing the feature-packed Glamour X as India’s first 125cc bike with cruise control, the company has now launched a new single seat variant of the Hero Xtreme 125R. The move not only adds more practicality for daily riders but also sharpens Hero’s competition with rivals like the TVS Raider 125.
Hero Xtreme 125R Single Seat Variant – Price and Details
The new single-seat Xtreme 125R is priced at ₹1,00,100 (ex-showroom). This makes it around ₹1,600 costlier than the base variant and ₹2,000 cheaper than the top variant. For reference:
- Base Variant: ₹98,425
- Single Seat Variant: ₹1,00,100
- Top Variant: ₹1,02,100
The addition of the single-seat option makes the bike more versatile, catering to riders who prefer extra comfort and practicality. Thanks to its step-up design, the overall sporty profile remains largely unchanged.
Design and Colour Options
Hero has retained the same sporty and aggressive stance of the Xtreme 125R. Even with a single piece seat, the bike’s silhouette looks bold and stylish. Pillion riders also get better comfort and practicality compared to the split-seat setup.
Colour choices remain the same as before:
- Cobalt Blue
- Firestorm Red
- Stallion Black
Hero Xtreme 125R to Get Cruise Control Soon
What’s more exciting is Hero’s plan to make the Xtreme 125R the second 125cc bike in India with cruise control, after the Glamour X.
The upcoming cruise control variant is expected to bring segment-first features such as:
- Ride-by-wire throttle
- Three ride modes – Eco, Road, and Power
- New colour LCD instrument cluster
- Dedicated cruise control switch for effortless highway rides
- Extra buttons for mode and menu selection
This will position the Xtreme 125R Cruise Control edition above all current trims – single-seat, split-seat, and ABS variants.
