Hero MotoCorp, India’s largest two‑wheeler maker, has been enjoying robust growth across its portfolio — and a big part of that performance comes from the wide appeal of key models such as the Hero Xoom, Destini, Xtreme and new Glamour X.

In January 2026, hero reported a ~26 % year‑on‑year rise in total sales, with 557,871 units dispatched compared to 442,873 units in january 2025, reflecting strong underlying demand for both motorcycles and scooters. Scooters in particular — with models like Xoom and Destini — showed significant growth, while motorcycles like Xtreme and Glamour X continued to contribute to the brand’s overall sales strength.

🚀 Key Models Powering Sales Growth

🛵 Hero Xoom — Gaining Footing in Scooter Segment

The Hero Xoom (125/160) has emerged as one of Hero’s notable scooter offerings. It has helped bolster Hero’s presence in the scooter market — a segment showing faster growth (scooter sales grew ~45 % YoY in Jan 2026). The Xoom’s style, practicality and growing customer acceptance have contributed to Hero’s expanding scooter volumes.

🛵 Hero Destini — Strong Scooter Performer

The Destini 125 continues to register healthy demand, often showing double‑digit growth in sales months. In late 2025, it delivered substantial increases year‑on‑year, underlining its appeal among buyers seeking a comfortable, feature‑rich scooter.

🏍️ Hero Xtreme — Popular Executive Bike

The Hero Xtreme range — especially the Xtreme 125R — has helped the company broaden its motorcycle portfolio beyond pure commuter bikes. While the overall sales mix is dominated by commuters, Xtreme models have added volume and presence in the executive segment.

🏍️ Hero Glamour X — Premium Commuter Attraction

The Glamour X 125 has built on the legacy of the traditional Glamour motorcycle, adding a modern look and features that resonate with buyers. It has helped hero strengthen its premium commuter segment and add incremental sales alongside the core commuter portfolio.

📈 Why These Models Matter

Together, these models have helped hero achieve a balanced and diversified sales mix across segments:

📊 Scooter Growth adds Up

Scooters like Xoom and Destini significantly contributed to a strong scooter sales rise — up nearly 46 % year on year in january 2026 — a much faster pace than motorcycles. This was key in boosting overall volumes for the brand.

🏍️ Motorcycle Volume Stability

While commuter bikes remain Hero’s backbone, models like Xtreme and Glamour X strengthen the premium and executive segments, enhancing Hero’s appeal to a wider buyer base beyond entry commuters.

📉 Consistent Demand Across Markets

Hero’s strong sales show healthy demand across both urban and rural markets, reflecting broader consumer confidence and effective product positioning across price points and segments.

🔍 Recent Sales Context

Hero’s improvement isn’t limited to one month. In November 2025, the company posted a 31 % year‑on‑year jump, selling over 600,000 two‑wheelers — where models like Xtreme 125R, Glamour X, Destini 110 and Xoom 160 were specifically cited for their strong market response.

These figures show that Hero’s product‑led strategy, with refreshed versions of classic models and stronger offerings in the scooter space, is resonating well with buyers — helping the brand sustain volume growth even amid competitive pressures.

🧠 What It Means for Hero’s Future

• Wider Segment Coverage: By strengthening both commuter and executive motorcycle ranges (Xtreme, Glamour X) and expanding in scooters (Xoom, Destini), hero is better positioned to capture diverse buyer preferences.
• Sustainable Growth: The balanced growth across segments indicates that Hero’s sales aren’t dependent on a single model but are spread across multiple offerings, reducing business risk.
• Scooter Momentum: With scooters growing rapidly — a segment where hero historically lagged — models like Xoom and Destini are helping the company gain share and relevance in a key growth area.

🏁 Bottom Line

Models such as the Hero Xoom and Destini scooters, along with the Xtreme and Glamour X motorcycles, have played a significant role in powering hero MotoCorp’s recent sales momentum. By appealing to both scooter and motorcycle buyers across segments — from everyday commuters to premium riders — these products have helped the brand record strong year‑on‑year growth and maintain its position as a leading two‑wheeler manufacturer in India.
