It is being said that Hero MotoCorp, the country’s largest selling two-wheeler manufacturer, plans to come up with a new 125cc scooter for the fast-approaching Auto Expo 2018. There are good chances that this upcoming Hero scooter would be the production version of the Dare concept scooter that was previewed earlier. Expected to be known as the 2018 Hero Aava, the new 125cc automatic scooter will become the first-ever Hero product in the 125cc scooter segment.

The 125cc 2018 Hero Aava, in all probability, will find itself comfortably slotted between mainstream models like the Access 125 and the sporty SR 125.
