TVS Motor Company (TVSM), which makes two- and three-wheelers, has rolled out the 2024 edition of the TVS Jupiter 110 scooter. The new model is significantly different from the earlier one in terms of looks, powertrain and features. The scooter comes equipped with a new generation engine that is higher on power output and a load of features.
Aniruddha Haldar, senior vice president — head commuter business and head corporate brand and media — TVS Motor Company, said at the launch: “TVS Jupiter 110 has been the anchor of the TVS Motor scooter portfolio for the last decade. Over time, 6.5 million households have reposed their faith in this product, making it one of the biggest automotive brands out of India. The ability to deliver torque on demand, enhanced fuel-efficiency with loads of usable space in a contemporary design sets the scooter in a league of its own. This superior proposition will continue to delight customers and build brand love for TVS Jupiter.”
The TVS Jupiter 110 is powered by a 113.3 cc, single cylinder, four-stroke engine which makes 5.9kW (8bhp) at 6,500rpm and a torque of 9.8Nm at 5,000rpm (with iGO Assist) and 9.2Nm at 5,000rpm (without iGOAssist). It also gives 10 per cent more mileage compared to its predecessor with its innovative iGO Assist technology, says TVS Motor.
The scooter comes with an intelligent ignition system with Auto Start-Stop functionality and ISG (Integrated Starter Generator) aimed at enhancing performance by harnessing power from the battery during overtaking and climbing. This facilitates additional acceleration when required.
The TVS Jupiter has a range of features, including a spacious glove box, front fuel fill, a long seat, an all-in-one lock, a USB mobile charger, and the patented E-Z centre stand. The scooter’s LED headlamp ensures superior illumination for safe night rides, while the motorcycle-like front telescopic suspension and large 90/90-12 inch tyres are intended to help provide a smooth and comfortable journey. The vehicle comes with Body balance Technology 2.0 - engineered to a forward, lower and more central mass position. The fuel tank has been lowered, bringing the centre of gravity forward and lower, giving the vehicle greater stability. The idea is to make it easier to balance even in slow traffic.
Says TVSM: “The TVS Jupiter 110 is designed with ergonomics at its core, featuring a well-positioned handlebar, spacious floorboard, and an accessible seat height, ensuring maximum comfort for riders of all sizes and genders.” It also comes equipped with TVS SMARTXONNECT™ Bluetooth enabled cluster with call, SMS, navigation and voice assist distance to empty, real time and average fuel efficiency readouts. The piano black finish and signature ‘Infinity’ lights are the some of the first changes that one notices compared to the earlier model.
Safety and convenience features on a scooter include MetalMaxx — metal fuel tank, front fender and side panels — under-seat space for two helmets, emergency brake warning, turn signal lamp reset and follow me headlamp.
The Jupiter 110 starts at a price of ₹77,200 (ex-showroom, West Bengal) and will be available in four variants — Drum, Drum Alloy, Drum SXC and Disc SXC.
