TVS Motor Unveils Jupiter 110

TVS Motor Company launched the Jupiter 110, its new addition to the Jupiter line-up, showcasing a blend of advanced technology and modern design. The new variant was launched online from the company’s Hosur plant in Bengaluru, which is also the place of this new variant’s conception and birth. 

Lead designer at TVS Motor Company, Clyde Dsilva, emphasised the design theme of ‘modern masculinity,’ which is artistically reflected in the long-chiselled highlights and glossy black panels of the scooter. Signature elements like infinity lamps at the front and rear, coupled with advanced indicator technology, add to the vehicle's modern appeal.

The new Jupiter 110 is powered by a next-generation 113.3cc engine, featuring a lightweight, compact design for high performance. Enhancing the ride experience, the engine integrates the iGO Assist system, which includes an integrated starter generator (ISG), an ISG controller and a high-performance battery.

The single cylinder, 4 stroke engine generates a power of 5.9 kilowatt at 6500 rpm and a torque of 9.8 Nm at 5,000 rpm (with iGO Assist) and 9.2 Nm at 5,000 rpm (without Assist). 

The scooter encompasses pioneering technology that achieves a 10 percent increase in mileage compared to its predecessor. It has an intelligent ignition system with auto start-stop functionality.

It is equipped with a range of technological features including call and text notifications, find my vehicle system, distance to empty tank alerts, average fuel economy tracking, navigation assist and voice assist. The high-contrast speedometer and fully digital colour LCD further enhance the rider's experience.

In addition to its sleek design, the scooter offers practical features such as body balance tech 2.0, double helmet space, front fuel fill and LED headlamps. The TVS SmartXonnect system provides real-time updates on fuel economy and distance to empty, adding convenience to the ride.

Safety remains a priority with turn signal lamp reset, emergency brake warning, roto-petal disc brakes and hazard lamps. The variant’s piano black finish and high-contrast speedometer complete the package, blending aesthetics with functionality.

It also boasts of a spacious glove box, 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 guarantee a smooth and comfortable journey. 

The fuel tank is moved by over 1,000 mm bringing the centre of gravity – (CoG) forward and lower, giving the vehicle superior stability. Combined with the large 12-inch wheels and optimal wheelbase, the Jupiter 110 is a breeze to balance in tight traffic even at very low speeds.

It features a well-positioned handlebar, spacious floorboard and an accessible seat height, ensuring maximum comfort for riders of all sizes and genders.

With these upgrades, the Jupiter 110 positions itself as a frontrunner in the scooter market, appealing to both tech-savvy and style-conscious consumers.

The new variant comes in a vibrant selection of colours including dawn blue matte, galactic copper matte, titanium grey matte, starlight blue gloss, lunar white gloss and meteor red gloss. 

Priced at INR 73,700 (ex-showroom, Delhi) for the base model, the scooter is available in four variants namely, Drum, Drum Alloy, Drum SXC and Disc SXC. These variants will be offered across all TVS Motor Company dealerships.

Speaking at the launch Director K.N. Radhakrishnan said, “The Jupiter 110 demonstrates our commitment to invest on customer expectations, engineering, technology, design and ergonomics; ahead of the curve. We have also upgraded the quality of customer experience at TVSM showrooms and the new Jupiter 110 takes that entire experience package forward. We are confident that the Jupiter with its many first-in-segment features will further build our position in the two-wheeler market."

Commenting on the same lines, Senior Vice President Aniruddha Haldar said, “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 core DNA of zyada ka fayda (more is beneficial) is further reinforced by the reimagined new variant. The ability to deliver torque on demand, enhanced fuel-efficiency with loads of usable space, in 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.”

B Govindarajan, MD, Eicher Motors, and CEO, Royal Enfiled, said, “At Eicher Motors, we’ve had a solid start to the year, with encouraging growth across both Royal Enfield and VECV. We continue to build consistent momentum in volumes, profitability and the strength of our overall portfolio. At Royal Enfield, we have sustained our growth momentum in the first quarter, anchored by our continued focus on product innovation, immersive riding experiences and a deeper expression of pure motorcycling. The refreshed Hunter 350 continues to be a key marker of growth for us, both in terms of volumes and community engagement. Moving ahead on our global ambition, we further strengthened our reach in the SAARC region and expanded our portfolio in Nepal with the locally assembled Classic 350. With a refreshed pipeline of motorcycles and a growing ecosystem of curated rides and culture-first experiences, we are shaping a vibrant and inclusive motorcycling movement.

Exports grew by 20.5 percent over last year. Deliveries of all electric Eicher Pro X in SCV segment (2.0–3.5T) continue to gather momentum.

VECV reported strong revenue growth and expansion in profit margins linked to better volumes, pricing and cost discipline. PAT was lower as compared to previous year primarily due to one off impact in Q1 FY’25 linked to deferred tax reversal.”

VECV also reported improved market share in LMD trucks and buses, and growth in electric vehicle deliveries and exports.
