The side panels will witness a redesign and so will the under-seat storage space, floorboard and seat. Expect to see a backrest on the top variants of the upcoming scooter. Moreover, the new Hero Destini 125 is likely to get premium colour options including dual-tone themes. The scooter is likely to tone down on the chrome treatment with the latest iteration.

New Hero Destini 125: Expected Specifications

There’s no word on the engine specifications yet but the model will be powered by the same engine, which is likely to be updated. The current Destini 125 draws power from a 125 cc single-cylinder, air-cooled motor with fuel injection tuned for 9 bhp at 7,000 rpm and 10.4 Nm of peak torque at 5,500 rpm. The engine is paired with a CVT automatic transmission. The scooter uses telescopic forks at the front with a single shock absorber at the rear. Braking performance comes from drum brakes at either end with combi braking.

The new Destini 125 will be aiming to take the fight to Suzuki, which rules this segment with the Access 125, Burgman Street 125 and Avenis 125. The model will also lock horns against the Honda Activa 125 and Vespa 125. The current Destini 125 is priced from 80,048, going up to 86,538 (ex-showroom, Delhi). Expected the new version to be priced at around 84,000 onwards.
