TVS Jupiter Price in India
Its starting ex-showroom price has been kept at Rs 79,291. The new Jupiter comes with a new generation engine, new design and more features than before. It has features like emergency stop signal, auto-cut turn indicator, distance to empty, voice commands, hazard lamp and follow-me headlamp. In India it competes with Honda Activa.
TVS Jupiter Design
The updated Jupiter features advanced updates such as new LED headlamps, LED light bar with integrated turn indicators on the front apron and hazard lamps. The rear also gets an LED light bar with emergency brake light alert and integrated turn indicators.
TVS has paid special attention to the gloss black plastic as it does not scratch the scooter easily. Apart from this, TVS says that the seat is now the largest in the segment and it comes with metal body panels as before. The scooter is available in Meteor Red Gloss, Titanium Grey Matte, Lunar White Gloss, Starlight Blue Gloss, Galactic Copper Matte, Twilight Purple Gloss and Dawn Blue Matte colour options.
TVS Jupiter Engine and Performance
TVS has replaced the 109.7cc engine in the new Jupiter with a 113.3cc new generation single cylinder, 4 stroke two valve engine with air-cooled and fuel injection technology. It generates a maximum power of 7.91hp at 5,000rpm and a torque of 9.2Nm at 5,000rpm.
TVS is offering electric assist and micro-hybrid technology with this engine. It gets a small electric boost with the help of Integrated Starter Generator (ISG) while accelerating. This increases the peak power of the scooter by 8hp and torque by 9.8Nm. The company claims that the iGO Assist feature of the new Jupiter will give 10% more mileage. Its top speed is 82kmph.

Follow-me headlamps with all-LED lighting setup The old generation Jupiter came with very few features, but the updated model has a lot of features and technology, due to which it is giving tough competition to other 110CC scooters.
