Upcoming Hero Xoom 125R
The existing 125R comes with such a sharp lines and creases that from the first moment it looks sporty and a scooter for young adults. Even now it features a digital screen with bluetooth connectivity, disc brakes with a diamond cut alloy wheels and H-shaped LED headlamps. Even the rear end features a signature H shape tail light.
The new model spotted was camouflaged, and the only visible change is the positioning of the rear tail lights. They have been moved to the sides and no longer connect with each other. Additionally, the turn indicators have switched to LED and are much thinner compared to the halogen bulbs.
I also noticed a new grab handle, which is similarly separated and does not connect, positioned in the same way as the tail lights. To fully understand these changes, you will need to look closely. Talking about the engine, the 124.6 cc air-cooled engine with 9 hp and 10.4 Nm of torque will be used, as before.
