Hero Destini 125 Detailed Review
- Unlike the outgoing scooter, the new Destini gets a neo-retro design language, which looks and feels more louder than the subdued appearance of the older one.
- The headlight is a trapezoidal-shaped LED unit with an H-shaped DRL pattern, and it also gets turn-indicators placed lower on the front apron.
- The top-end variant will get copper chrome accents on the body, while the lower-spec variants will continue with regular chrome accents.
- While the base variant gets steel rims, the mid-spec and top-end variant will get diamond-cut alloy rims.
- The tail section of the scooter receives a rather unique design treatment, with turn indicators placed above the tail lamp
Destini 125 body specifications:

- The top-end variant further adds on turn-by-turn navigation and a cushioned backrest, alongside the rest of the features already available.
- At 1302mm, the Destini 125 gets a 57mm longer wheelbase than before, and it also finally gets 12-inch wheels on both ends.
