Focusing on what is different in this new version. The big highlight on the Hero Glamour X is the addition of cruise control, a feature typically reserved for premium or bigger motorcycles like the TVS Apache RTR 310 or even the KTM 390 Duke. A dedicated cruise control toggle on the right switchgear gives the option to set and reset the speed. It also gets a ride-by-wire throttle system, which is another first in this class.
