The Hero Destini Prime is available in three colours - Pearl Silver White, Nexus Blue and Nobel Red. The new variant arrives right in time for the festive season and will be a new option for customers looking to bring a basic 125 cc scooter home and do not necessarily need the fancier tech. The substantial drop in price should certainly help the manufacturer move more units of the scooter this season. The Destini Prime takes on the Honda Activa 125, Yamaha Fascino 125, Suzuki Access and TVS Jupiter 125 in the family scooter segment.
