Hero MotoCorp offers two popular 125cc commuter bikes – the Hero Glamour and Hero Super Splendor. While both belong to the same category, they differ in design, features, and performance. Let’s compare them to help you choose the right one.
1. Design & Styling
Hero Glamour has a sportier look with sharper bodywork, dual-tone graphics, and an LED headlamp (in the Xtec variant).
Hero Super Splendor follows a simpler, more traditional design, suitable for those who prefer a classic commuter look.
2. Engine & Performance
Both bikes feature a 124.7cc, air-cooled, single-cylinder engine, producing 10.72 bhp and 10.6 Nm torque. However, the Glamour offers a 5-speed gearbox, while the Super Splendor comes with a 4-speed gearbox, making the Glamour slightly smoother on highways.
3. Fuel Efficiency
Hero Glamour delivers a mileage of 55-60 kmpl.
Hero Super Splendor offers a slightly better mileage of 60-65 kmpl, thanks to its simpler tuning and lightweight design.
4. Features & Technology
The Glamour Xtec variant comes with Bluetooth connectivity, turn-by-turn navigation, and a digital console.
The Super Splendor has an analog-digital meter and lacks advanced tech features.
Conclusion
If you want a modern, feature-loaded bike, go for the Hero Glamour. But if you prefer a simple, fuel-efficient, and budget-friendly commuter, the Super Splendor is a better choice.
