The TVS Jupiter has been around for a long time. It has had some evolutions through changing times, but the idea behind it has remained the same, the idea of more; giving more to the customers with every ride. In 2024, the idea of ‘more’ has changed and so has the TVS Jupiter. TVS invited us to test the new TVS Jupiter 110 and here is how it went. 

As I swung a leg over the new TVS Jupiter 110, it felt so familiar. There is a reason that TVS Jupiter has been a prominent part of the Indian scooter market. There is a reason why the TVS Jupiter family is more than 5 million strong. Building on that success and the expectations people have for Jupiter, TVS decided to build on the idea, refine it, and add to it. So in simple terms, the new TVS Jupiter 110 is not only an upgrade, it aims to redefine what a modern-day commuter scooter should be.

The first thing that caught my eye was the refreshed design of the Jupiter 110. TVS has done a commendable job in updating the scooter’s look while maintaining the essence of the Jupiter lineage. The bodywork is more aerodynamic, and the lines are sharper, giving the scooter a modern yet familiar feel. The LED headlamps not only enhance visibility during night rides but also add a modern touch to the scooter’s aesthetics. The updated body graphics further elevate its appeal, making it a head-turner in the crowded commuter scooter segment.

Adding to the looks are the colourways. You get a fair few colour options for the new TVS Jupiter 110 and most of them look striking. My favourite though was the one I rode- Dawn Blue Matte. I am just going to list the others out; Galactic Copper Matte, Straight Blue Gloss, Lunar White Gloss, Titanium Grey Matte, and Meteor Red Gloss. Rest you can check them out here. 

As I twisted the throttle and took off, the first thing I noticed was the smoothness of the ride. The 113.3 cc single-cylinder, 4-stroke, fuel-injected, air-cooled engine offers a perfect balance of power and efficiency. The engine felt punchy yet teady in the way it delivers the 5.9 kW of power and 9.2 Nm of torque. The iGO assist takes that to 9.8 Nm but more on that later. It reacts to throttle inputs almost instantly but never feels jerky. 

I believe that grunt will make the scooter a boon in the traffic but the overall power and a top speed of 82 km/h is more than enough for slightly longer runs as well. The CVT transmission paired with a dry centrifugal clutch makes the ride effortless. Again, it will be a godsend in stop-and-go traffic and even on the open roads. After having ridden motorcycles for the most part, the lack of gear shifts felt rather welcome. 

One of the standout aspects of the Jupiter 110 is its comfort. The scooter’s dimensions—1848 mm in length, 665 mm in width, and 1158 mm in height—offer a spacious and ergonomic seating position. The 1275 mm wheelbase provides an excellent balance between stability and maneuverability. The seat length of 756 mm ensures ample room for both the rider and a passenger, making it a great choice for daily commutes and short weekend rides alike.

Seen in action here are the Rynox Helium GT jacket and Rynox Storm Evo Noctex pants. The perfect blend of style, comfort, and protection, these riding gears from Rynox have proven to be our perfect riding companion.

The telescopic hydraulic front suspension and gas-filled emulsion damper rear suspension felt plush and well-equipped to absorb all sorts of irregularities on the road. I am quite sure that the new TVS Jupiter 110 will offer a smooth and comfortable ride in most conditions. The scooter’s kerb weight of 105 kg struck a perfect balance between being light enough for easy manoeuvrability and heavy enough to maintain stability at higher speeds.

The result of the third collaboration between xBhp and Axor, TheNineteen builds upon the qualities of the Axor Apex helmet augmented by stunning graphics and a beautiful message for the younger generation.

Safety is a crucial aspect of any scooter, and the Jupiter 110 doesn’t disappoint. The combination of a 220 mm diameter front disc brake and a 130 mm diameter rear drum brake, offered reliable stopping power, which gives you the confidence to put the hammer down when you need to. Whether I was making sudden stops or gradually slowing down, the brakes responded precisely, ensuring safety at all times.

The scooter’s 90/90 – 12 54J tubeless tyres on both the front and rear provided excellent grip, even on wet and slippery surfaces. Whether I was cornering or riding straight, the tyres offered stability and control, making the ride feel secure and planted. The 12” wheel also goes a long way in adding to the sense stability when compared to other scooters in the class.

TVS has packed the Jupiter 110 with a range of features that cater to the needs of today’s riders. The iGO Assist Technology is a game-changer, offering instant power boosts when needed and enhancing fuel efficiency. The combination of the ISG machine, ISG controller, and high-performance battery worked seamlessly in providing a little more oomph in case you need it for an overtake or… just some fun.

The first-in-class features like front fuel filling, a spacious 33-liter under-seat storage, and a mobile charger added to the convenience, making the Jupiter 110 a practical choice for daily commuting. The color LCD speedometer with Bluetooth connectivity and voice assist features took the ride experience to the next level, integrating modern technology into the scooter’s design.

After spending time with the new TVS Jupiter 110, it’s clear that this scooter is designed to offer more—more style, more comfort, more safety, and more performance. TVS has managed to create a scooter that not only meets the demands of the modern-day commuter but also exceeds expectations. Whether you’re a seasoned rider or someone new to the world of scooters, the Jupiter 110 offers a riding experience that’s hard to beat.

In a market crowded with options, the TVS Jupiter 110 stands out as a well-rounded, feature-packed scooter that’s ready to take on the challenges of urban commuting. If you’re in the market for a new scooter that offers a perfect blend of style, performance, and practicality, the new Jupiter 110 is definitely worth a test ride.
