2026 Hero Glamour 125
The spied photo showcases the Hero Glamour 125 completely wrapped in brown duct tape, with only the TFT screen, handlebars, and switches visible. As of now, there isn't any concrete news on whether it will launch anytime soon, but according to popular media sources, it's expected to arrive around the 2026 timeline. This is quite surprising and a major revelation, considering even the Hero Maverick 440, Xpulse 210/200, and Xtreme 250R lack this feature.
The Hero Glamour brand is known for its strong legacy in the commuter bike segment, with decades of trust among buyers. If this 125cc bike comes with cruise control, it could shake up the entire mass-market bike segment. It's believed that Hero is adding the same setup seen in their electric lineup-specifically, the Vida scooters, which feature cruise control. Additionally, a 4.2-inch TFT display has been spotted, which will likely offer connectivity features such as notifications, SMS, and navigation, all displayed in a crisp and clear format.
To add more, we believe that upon launch, this bike will be priced around Rs 90,000 ex-showroom. It will compete with the Hero Xtreme 125R, TVS Raider, and Honda CB 125 Hornet in the 125cc segment.

Verdict
The Hero Glamour was recently updated to meet OBD-2B compliance, which resulted in a price hike of up to Rs 2,000 per variant. However, aside from this, no significant updates have been made to it. With its popularity waning, it's high time for Hero to bring it back in a stronger avatar. As the Hero Xtreme 125R and TVS Raider 125 have become the dominant players in this segment, the cruise control feature could set the Glamour apart and become a deal-breaker. Let's hope we see this motorcycle soon!
