Hero vs Honda: New product launches

Hero MotoCorp is taking a step away from the mass market for a bit, as it has commenced bookings for the Xoom 160 maxiscooter in India, which is priced at Rs 1.49 lakh. The Xoom 160 was launched earlier this year at the Bharat Mobility Expo, and after a series of delays, Hero has commenced bookings, and deliveries are set to commence this month.

Apart from the Xoom, Hero is gearing up to launch the updated Glamour 125, which, going by spy shots, gets cruise control, a first for a motorcycle in this segment.

Honda, on the other hand, has focused on the mass market by launching two motorcycles: The CB125 Hornet and the Shine 100 DX. The former is a sporty 125cc motorcycle that will lock horns with the Hero Xtreme 125, a popular motorcycle in the category, while the latter is a more premium version of the Shine 100, a popular commuter from Honda.

The new Honda CB125 Hornet is priced at Rs 1.12 lakh, ex-showroom, while the Honda Shine 100 DX is priced at Rs 74,959, ex-showroom. The Hornet’s competitor, the Hero Xtreme 125R, is priced at Rs 1 lakh, ex-showroom.
