At long last, the TVS Jupiter 125 is set to be launched in India today. For years, the Jupiter has been the mainstay of TVS’ scooter range, having maintained a vice-like grip on the second spot on the list of India’s highest-selling scooters. Being second only to the insanely popular Honda Activa, the Jupiter has been updated with newer features over time, but has only available in 110 cc form so far. With the market moving to larger-capacity scooters, the time is right for the arrival of the TVS Jupiter 125, which will rival popular offerings from Honda, Suzuki and Hero MotoCorp. At this time, not much is known about the Jupiter 125, but a teaser confirms the bigger-hearted scooter will come with LED daytime-running lights integrated into the apron. Expect to see the same, three-valve, 125 cc engine that powers the Ntorq 125, in possibly a slightly different state of tune, as well as Bluetooth connectivity and a few other segment-first features among others. The Jupiter 125 will rival the likes of the Honda Activa 125, Suzuki Access 125, Yamaha Fascino 125, Honda Grazia and Hero Destini. Prices are set to be a fair bit higher than the prices for the 110 cc model, which currently range from Rs 65-75,000 (ex-showroom).

TVS Jupiter 125: Styling tweaks
The 125 cc version of the TVS Jupiter is unlikely to look too far removed from the 110 cc model (pictured here), and is expected to retain the same core design. However, it is expected to feature different alloy wheels and a number of styling tweaks to distinguish it from the smaller Jupiter.
Jupiter joins Ntorq in the 125 cc space
The Jupiter is not TVS’ first 125 cc scooter – that title belongs to the TVS Ntorq (pictured here), which is one of the most popular 125 cc scooters on sale in India today. The Jupiter will join it in the 125 cc space today, but the Jupiter’s positioning as a family scooter will distinguish it from the Ntorq.
