Hero MotoCorp has launched the Hero Xtreme 125R single-seat variant in India at Rs. 1 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi), priced Rs. 2,000 lower than the top-spec split-seat ABS model. This new addition brings enhanced comfort and practicality to the popular 125cc commuter, making it a compelling choice for budget-conscious riders seeking style and performance.
Enhanced Comfort for Everyday Rides
The single-seat design prioritizes rider and pillion comfort, offering a longer, more cushioned seat compared to the sporty split-seat variants. While it trades some of the aggressive aesthetic for practicality, the bike retains its sleek LED headlamp, muscular fuel tank, and silver-finished side panels, ensuring it remains a head-turner.
Reliable Performance Under the Hood
Powered by a 124.7cc single-cylinder, air-cooled engine, the Xtreme 125R delivers 11.4 bhp at 8,250 rpm and 10.5 Nm of torque at 6,000 rpm. Paired with a smooth 5-speed gearbox, it offers a claimed mileage of 66 kmpl, balancing efficiency with spirited performance for city commutes and beyond.
Safety and Features That Impress
Equipped with single-channel ABS, the single-seat variant ensures enhanced braking safety. It also features a digital instrument cluster, LED lighting, and a USB charging port, keeping riders connected and secure. No other changes have been made, preserving the bike’s core strengths.
A Smart Choice for Riders
Positioned between the IBS (Rs. 98,425) and top-spec ABS (Rs. 1.02 lakh) variants, the single-seat Xtreme 125R competes with the TVS Raider 125 and Bajaj Pulsar N125. Available in Cobalt Blue, Firestorm Red, and Stallion Black, this variant blends affordability, comfort, and style, making it a top pick for 2025.
