The Hero Maestro Edge 125 shares its underpinnings with the top Destini 125.All the scooters in the segment use a 125 cc engine, but as mentioned, it's the Hero Maestro Edge 125 which is fuel injected which means better fuel efficiency and also abides by the BS6 norms. It is also equipped with Hero MotoCorp's i3S technology which helps with even better fuel economy. Moreover, in terms of features, it gets external fuel filler cap, USB charging and a light for the under seat storage. While all these features are also available in the TVS N Torq and Suzuki Burgman, they also get Bluetooth connectivity.
