Hero Xtreme 125R Launched: A Perfect Balance of Power, Features, and Affordability Under ₹1 Lakh

Hero Xtreme 125R

The Indian two-wheeler market has welcomed a stylish new contender — the Hero Xtreme 125R. Designed to offer an exciting mix of performance, mileage, and affordability, this sporty commuter bike aims squarely at young professionals and daily riders. With a striking design, feature-rich build, and a price tag under ₹1 lakh (ex-showroom), the Xtreme 125R is set to become a top pick in the 125cc segment.

Power-Packed Performance

The Hero Xtreme 125R is powered by a 125cc single-cylinder, air-cooled engine, delivering class-leading torque and responsive acceleration. Producing 11.4 bhp at 8,250 RPM and 10.5 Nm of torque at 6,500 RPM, it offers one of the quickest 0–60 km/h accelerations in its class — just 6 seconds.

While it can reach top speeds of 110 km/h, the real charm lies in its balance — offering a remarkable fuel efficiency of up to 65 km/l, making it a rare blend of power and economy. Whether you’re slicing through city traffic or cruising on highways, the Xtreme 125R delivers a lively yet economical ride.

Comfortable Ride and Sharp Handling

The bike features a 37mm telescopic front fork and a 7-step adjustable mono-shock at the rear, offering a plush and composed ride. This suspension setup isn’t just comfortable—it also provides confident cornering and road grip.

Hero hasn’t compromised on safety either. The Xtreme 125R is equipped with front disc brakes and rear drum/disc (depending on variant), coupled with single-channel ABS. Alloy wheels with tubeless tyres ensure added stability and safety, even during emergency braking or rough road conditions.

Packed with Modern Features

For today’s tech-savvy riders, the Xtreme 125R offers a well-rounded digital package. Its fully digital LCD instrument cluster includes a gear position indicator, service reminder, and real-time readouts.

A projector LED headlamp, DRLs, and LED indicators not only enhance safety but give the bike a premium appearance. Add to that a USB charging port, engine kill switch, and pass light, and it’s clear this motorcycle is built with modern commuting in mind.
