Hero MotoCorp has expanded its 110 cc scooter line-up with the new Xoom 110. Priced from Rs 68,599 (ex-showroom, Delhi), the Xoom has been launched in three variants with the top-spec ZX adding some segment first features such as cornering lights while bits such as the LED headlamp and taillight are standard across the range. In terms of rivals, the Xoom 110 is expected to face competition from the likes of the TVS Jupiter 110, Honda Dio, the Honda Activa and Hero’s Maestro Edge 110.

The Maestro Edge is smaller in size than the Xoom 110 though is heavier.
Moving to the engine, the Xoom 110 and the Maestro Edge 110 have little to set them apart. Both feature a 110.9 cc unit developing identical power and torque at the same rpms. While the Hero engine has a marginal advantage in terms of power its Honda’s 109.51 cc mill in the Dio that has the torque advantage at 9 Nm at 4750 rpm. The Activa shares the same engine as the Dio though here it develops marginally more power but lesser torque. The Jupiter 110 meanwhile has the largest fuel tank in the segment at 6 litres.
