Hero MotoCorp has finally taken the wraps off the 2024 Destini 125, marking a major update for one of the popular 125cc scooters. The update to the model comes after almost six years of its introduction. The 2024 Hero Destini 125 comes with an all-new design, more features, and better performance.
The 2024 Hero Destini 125 gets an updated design with new LED headlight and taillight, a metal front fender, and side panels. The scooter will be available in three variants: VX, ZX, and ZX+. The entry-level VX variant is quite spartan, with just a drum brake, a basic analogue dash, and Hero’s i3s fuel-saving technology.

The ZX mid-spec model brings in a bluetooth-enabled digital dash, backlighting for the starter button, front disc brake, pillion backrest, and auto-cancelling indicators-a first-in-segment feature. At the top, the ZX+ variant gets all of the ZX’s features with bronze-finished chrome accents and machined alloy wheels.

The Destini 125 has a revised chassis with 12-inch wheels front and rear. Meanwhile, the rear tire also gets wider to 100/80-12 tire. The wheelbase is now 57mm longer but Hero has offset this by sharpening the rake and moving the swingarm pivot point higher up. While the ZX and ZX+ get a first-in-class 190mm front disc brake, the base VX continues with a 130mm drum brake.

Hero insists that the calibration of the CVT has been fine tuned further to enhance refinement and fuel efficiency. The claimed fuel efficiency of the 2024 Hero Destini 125 is 59 kmpl (tested by ICAT).
