Cornering Lights
Cornering lights are not something that you often see on an Indian scooter. Well, Hero Xoom is the first scooter to introduce the cornering light tech into this segment. This tech gives the rider the extra advantage of delivering enough vision by switching in extra lighting to provide the dipped beam on tight bends, at junctions or when turning into a road. The feature will only work when the scooter is moving and uses a gyroscope and accelerometer as the signal transmitters.
Features
Hero Xoom comes with a number of features as it makes its way into the Indian market. Major highlights are the diamond-cut alloy wheels, Bluetooth connectivity with SMS alerts and notifications on the digital instrument cluster, etc. But the digital instrument cluster is only available with the top-spec ZX variant, whereas the mid- spec VX trim have the same console with a different backlight. The LX variant has a regular semi-digital cluster. Optional features like USB charger are also available.
