Hero MotoCorp has added a new range-topping version to the Xtreme 125R line-up. Called the Stealth Edition, it was introduced on November 6, 2026, at an ex-showroom price of ₹1,16,250 across India. The update brings a colour TFT instrument display and a tyre pressure monitoring system to the sporty 125cc motorcycle, while leaving its engine and basic mechanical package unchanged.
New version is aimed at buyers who want connected features and extra tyre-pressure information without moving to a larger-capacity motorcycle. Its price places it at the top of the Xtreme 125R range, so the main question is whether the added electronics justify the premium over the existing dual-channel ABS version.
Hero Xtreme 125R Stealth Edition: What Is New?
Biggest functional change is a 4.2-inch colour TFT instrument cluster. When paired with a compatible smartphone through Hero’s connectivity system, the display can show turn-by-turn navigation prompts, incoming call and SMS alerts, and music-control information. It gives the Stealth Edition a more feature-rich cockpit than the simpler digital display used on the other Xtreme 125R variants.
The second major addition is a Tyre Pressure Monitoring System, or TPMS. It provides tyre-pressure information and alerts the rider when pressure needs attention. Hero describes this as a first for the sporty 125cc motorcycle category. The system can help riders notice a pressure issue earlier, but it does not replace checking tyre pressure with a gauge at the recommended intervals.
For styling, the Stealth Edition gets a Midnight Black finish with Pearl Red accents and coloured alloy wheels. Red highlights are used around the bodywork to distinguish it from the existing versions. The overall body shape and design remain familiar, so this is a special equipment and colour update rather than a full redesign.

Hero Xtreme 125R Stealth Edition Price and Position in the Range
Hero has set the Stealth Edition’s price at ₹1,16,250 (ex-showroom, pan-India). It becomes the most expensive Xtreme 125R variant. Autocar India reports that it costs about ₹6,000 more than the dual-channel ABS version below it, with the extra amount going towards the TFT display, TPMS and exclusive finish.
The price is not an on-road figure. Registration, insurance and state-level charges will vary, so buyers should request a written quotation from their local Hero dealership. Hero’s launch communication says the new variant is available through dealerships across India. Local stock and delivery timing may still differ from one city to another.
124.7cc Engine and Mechanical Specifications
The Stealth Edition carries forward the Xtreme 125R’s 124.7cc, air-cooled, single-cylinder engine. It produces 11.4bhp and 10.5Nm of torque and is paired with a five-speed gearbox. Hero has not announced a revised engine tune or a performance increase for this edition, so its acceleration and riding character should remain broadly in line with the existing Xtreme 125R.
Motorcycle also retains the model’s existing riding and braking equipment, including Rain, Road and Sport riding modes and dual-channel ABS on the higher-spec version. Hero’s launch communication also lists cruise control among the carried-over features. No new, Stealth-specific fuel-efficiency figure was announced with the launch, so buyers should not treat mileage figures quoted for other versions or test conditions as a guaranteed real-world result.
How Useful Are the TFT Display and TPMS?
For everyday riders, the TFT screen is likely to be the feature they notice most often. Navigation prompts can reduce the need to check a phone mounted on the handlebar, while call and message alerts provide basic connected convenience. Music controls add another function, although riders should keep their attention on traffic and use connected features only when it is safe to do so.
TPMS has a more direct safety role. Under-inflated tyres can affect handling, braking response and tyre wear. A monitoring system can warn the rider when pressure moves outside the expected range, but the warning should be treated as a prompt to inspect the tyre rather than proof that it is safe to continue riding. Punctures, damaged valves and sudden pressure loss still need physical checks.
Rivals and What Buyers Should Compare
The Xtreme 125R competes in a busy sporty commuter class that includes the TVS Raider 125, Bajaj Pulsar N125 and Honda CB125 Hornet. These motorcycles target riders who want manageable running costs with sharper styling and more engaging performance than a basic commuter. The Stealth Edition’s differentiator is its combination of a colour TFT display and TPMS in this displacement category.
Before choosing it, buyers should compare the full on-road price, seat comfort, low-speed engine response, braking feel and service access in their area. A test ride is also useful for checking whether the riding position suits daily traffic. The added display and TPMS are valuable only if the buyer will use them; riders who prefer a simpler cockpit may find a lower Xtreme 125R variant better value.
Takeaway: Hero Xtreme 125R Stealth Edition adds meaningful equipment rather than extra engine performance. Its 4.2-inch TFT cluster, Bluetooth-based connected functions, TPMS and distinctive black-and-red finish make it the most feature-focused version of the range. At ₹1,16,250 ex-showroom, it is worth considering for riders who value those additions, while buyers focused mainly on price may be better served by one of the existing trims.
