The Hero Destini 125 was first revealed at the 2018 Auto Expo as the Duet 125 and is based on the Duet 110 cc scooter. While both the scooter share the same underpinnings, the Destini 125 comes with new designs and styling, along with premium features marking its flagship status in the company’s scooter line up. The Hero Destini 125 is also the first scooter in the market to come with the automatic start-stop system, termed i3S (ideal start stop system) by Hero MotoCorp. It’s powered by a new 125 cc single-cylinder, air-cooled engine. The engine offers 8.7 bhp at 6750 rpm and 10.2 Nm of peak torque available at 5000 rpm and has been tweaked to offer better low-end power for higher urban usability.
The Hero Destini 125 will include Integrated Braking System (IBS), side stand indicator, service reminder, pass switch, external fuel filling and more. The VX comes with boot light, mobile charging point, chrome garnishes, cast wheels and dual tone seat covers. So far, the Destini 125 will only be available with drum brakes, but Hero officials haven’t ruled out the introduction of disc brakes if there’s significant customer demand for that feature.
