“Revolutionizing the everyday ride, one innovation at a time.” With this promise, Hero Motocorp has launched the fiercely upgraded Glamour X in the competitive 125cc segment—turning everyday commuting into an experience worth celebrating. The new Hero Glamour X, arriving with a suite of first-in-segment features like cruise control, is set to redefine expectations for Indian commuters who want flair, technology, and comfort—all without breaking the bank.
Striking Design: Bold, Modern, Eye-Catching
It’s evident from the minute you take a glance at the Hero Glamour X that Hero Motocorp means business. The updated Glamour X is much more robust and modern in shape and design, with prominent tank shrouds, along with more sculpted lines and curves on the tank. The new headlamp has an H-shaped daytime running light (DRL), which gives the motorcycle a more modern look. The tail lamp also mirrors this element, neatly completing the design.
- Tank shrouds and sculpted bodywork for a muscular presence
- Stylish new headlamp with H-shaped DRL
- Matching contemporary tail lamp
- Single-piece seat with expanded pillion space
- Choice of drum and disc brake variants
These design upgrades not only increase the aesthetic quotient but also make the motorcycle visually distinct on city roads.
