The 110cc version of Honda Activa was a massive hit but the Japanese bike manufacturer did introduce a powerful 125cc version of the same. Following the same path, TVS Motors has finally decided to introduce the all-new TVS Jupiter 125 which will start at Rs.73,400 and will go all the way up to Rs.81,300 (ex-showroom, Delhi) for the top-end disc variant. The Indian brand has also stuffed almost all the modern features in this new scooter and therefore, we expect it to perform well for them.
Planning to buy a powerful scooter? Well, you should definitely consider this new product by TVS.

- TVS Jupiter 125 has finally arrived in India at Rs.73,400.
- Powered by a 124.8cc single-cylinder, air-cooled engine.

TVS Jupiter 125
Styling & Colour Schemes
Extensive use of chrome has been made and it will definitely take some time to get grow upon the buyers. Just like any other modern scooter, it will feature a new LED headlamp, taillamp, alloy wheels and wing mirrors for a sportier look.
Several colour shades including IndiBlue, Titanium Grey, Dawn Orange and Pristine White are also there to offer a wide variety of customisation to potential customers.
Features
The features’ list sounds practical enough to help it survive in a competitive segment. So let’s start with the under-seat storage. The brand claims to offer 33 litres of storage space that can hold up to two helmets at the same time. Other features including a side stand indicator, semi-digital instrument cluster, smartphone charger and external fuel lid are there to help it stand out in front of truly capable rivals.
Hardware
With a kerb weight of around 108kgs, the all-new Jupiter 125 sits on a hydraulic telescopic suspension at the front. A three-step adjustable monotube unit at the back also works brilliantly while absorbing all the bumps and ridges easily.
The top-end variant of this new range comes with a single 220mm disc at the front. Meanwhile, braking duties at the back are managed by 130mm drum unit.
Engine
Being the elder sibling, it comes powered by a 124.8cc single-cylinder, air-cooled engine. The overall output from this motor is currently rated at 8.15PS and 10.5Nm with a CVT gearbox on board.
Suzuki is offering an external fuel lid on the Jupiter 125 which is undoubtedly a convenient idea.
