The scooter market in India shares a large chunk of the automotive industry and now TVS has launched a new race horse in an already competitive market. The new offering from TVS will go against Honda Activa and Hero Maestro in the 110 cc segment.
On the specifications front, the Jupiter will come equipped with a 109.7cc motor which is presently doing the job on the Wego. The power and torque figure remain the same as the Wego's, with the scooter producing 8PS of power at 7500 RPM and 8NM torque at 5500 RPM.
On offering are tubeless tyres and drum brakes with a fuel capacity of 5.3 litres. The scooter is peppy with a claimed 0-60 timing of around 7.2 seconds and that too with a mileage of 62 kmpl making it a great value and performance prospect.
The scooter is targeted at daily riding with city riding and comfort at the highest of its priority. The scooter boasts of a very large foot board, giving optimum leg room and the comfort is taken care by telescopic front shocks whereas the rear is equipped with Gas-filled shocks for added cushioning. The scooter also gets a external fueling like the TVS scooty streak. The under seat storage is also best in class at 17 litres. Key shutter lock is also a part of the standard package. Frankly speaking, we find the scooter to be a mix of Wego and Activa and that is not really a bad thing. But we would have liked a new design altogether.
The colors on offers are :-
1) Pristine White
2) Titanium Grey
3) Volcano Red
4) Midnight Black
TVS has priced the Jupiter at Rs 44,200 ex-showroom Delhi.
