New Delhi: Hero MotoCorp has launched the new Xtreme 125R Stealth Edition in India at an ex-showroom price of ₹1.16 lakh. The new range-topping variant brings a distinctive colour scheme, a 4.2-inch TFT instrument console and a tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS), adding more technology and convenience to the sporty 125cc motorcycle.
The Stealth Edition is positioned above the existing dual-channel ABS variant and becomes the most feature-rich version of the Xtreme 125R range. It costs ₹6,000 more than the variant below it.
New styling and exclusive colour scheme
The Hero Xtreme 125R Stealth Edition gets a distinctive bronze-and-black finish, complemented by contrasting red alloy wheels. Red accents are also visible on the pillion grab rails, tank extension panels and the ‘X’ element in the motorcycle’s branding.
The new paint scheme gives the motorcycle a different appearance while retaining the existing design and bodywork of the Xtreme 125R. The special colour treatment is exclusive to the Stealth Edition, making it visually distinct from the other variants in the line-up.
4.2-inch TFT display with smartphone connectivity
One of the biggest updates is the introduction of a 4.2-inch colour TFT instrument display. The Stealth Edition is currently the only variant in the Xtreme 125R range to receive this screen.
The display supports smartphone connectivity through Hero’s proprietary application. Once paired, riders can access turn-by-turn navigation, incoming call notifications and SMS alerts. It also offers music playback controls, allowing riders to manage selected smartphone functions through the instrument console.
The addition of the TFT display brings connected technology to the motorcycle and distinguishes the Stealth Edition from the lower variants, which use simpler instrument displays.
Tyre pressure monitoring system added
Another major addition is the tyre pressure monitoring system. The feature provides real-time tyre pressure information and alerts riders when the pressure requires attention.
Hero MotoCorp describes TPMS as a segment-first feature for motorcycles in the sporty 125cc category. It is intended to help riders monitor tyre pressure more conveniently and maintain appropriate inflation levels.
Along with the TFT console, the TPMS is one of the key additions that justify the Stealth Edition’s position as the range-topping variant.
Engine and mechanical specifications remain unchanged
Mechanically, the Hero Xtreme 125R Stealth Edition remains unchanged. It is powered by the same 124.7cc, air-cooled, single-cylinder engine used in the other variants.
The engine produces 11.4 bhp at 8,250 rpm and 10.5 Nm of peak torque at 6,500 rpm. It is paired with a five-speed gearbox.
The motorcycle also continues to offer three riding modes: Rain, Road and Sport. These modes allow riders to select different settings according to riding conditions. The higher-spec versions of the Xtreme 125R range also feature dual-channel ABS and cruise control.
Hero Xtreme 125R Stealth Edition price and variants
With the launch of the new edition, the Hero Xtreme 125R is available in five variants. The prices are:
| Variant | Ex-showroom price |

| ABS | ₹96,700 |

The Stealth Edition carries a premium of ₹6,000 over the dual-channel ABS variant. For the additional amount, buyers get the exclusive styling, TFT instrument console and TPMS.
Rivals in the 125cc motorcycle segment
The Hero Xtreme 125R competes in India’s sporty 125cc motorcycle segment, where it faces rivals such as the TVS Raider and Honda CB125 Hornet.
The addition of a colour TFT display and tyre pressure monitoring system gives the Stealth Edition a technology-focused equipment package in this category. The motorcycle retains its existing engine and mechanical setup, with the updates concentrated on styling, instrumentation and safety-related convenience features.
The new Hero Xtreme 125R Stealth Edition is aimed at buyers looking for a sporty 125cc motorcycle with additional connected features and distinctive styling. With its ₹1.16 lakh ex-showroom price, it becomes the most expensive variant in the Xtreme 125R range.
