TVS Jupiter 2025: TVS Jupiter has most definitely been one of the stellar performances in the Indian two-wheeler space.
Since it was first introduced in 2013, this fully-loaded 110cc scooter has found itself in five-million-odd homes (numbers that we could only dream of getting close to) and picked up numerous ‘Scooter of the Year’ awards along the way, establishing itself as the second best-selling scooter in our market; behind the all-conquering Honda Activa, naturally.
Four years into their five-year mission (the PSUP accreditation is good through 2025) the Jupiter is transforming, but slowly and only by the detail as it remains sharpened and focused by depth and the highest of high level group thinkers.
TVS Jupiter 2025 Origin and market position
The Jupiter was TVS Motor Company’s masterstroke to capture Honda’s legacy in the scooter segment. Rather than engaging in a price war, TVS positioned the Jupiter as a premium alternative, boasting higher refinement, smart extras and premium styling.
Does Jupiter Get A Thumbs Up, and A Why Or Why not? At least people perceive it as an option other than Activa. Instead, Jupiter had a blank slate to forge its own identity.
This was a devastatingly successful strategy. And, the Jupiter was the fastest selling scooter to reach 1 million sales in the country within 2 years of its launch.
Yet within months, riders began to notice the quality of finish and appearance neither of which were represented in the form of a family rider but also the mere serving as a transportation appliance TVS succeeded in building up the brand, which continued to live on in many new avatars for decades.
Engineering Philosophy
With the Jupiter, the design idea was on being smooth and reliable rather than simply fast. The 110cc single-cylinder air-cooled engine makes 7.9 bhp at 7,500 rpm and 8.8 Nm of peak torque at 5,500 rpm.
These numbers are not impressive, but they are the product of a decision to prioritize small and light, smooth, fuel-efficient, and long-term durable engineering over insane spec sheet figures.
The 2025 entity adheres to these principles and introduces significant upgrades in three important areas:
Mileage: The new age ETFi(Ecothrust Fuel injection) engine takes the ATG through the traffic smoothly on a peppy ride, while still delivering the best-in-class fuel efficiency of 62 kmpl under standard test conditions, which will be the ideal companion for your fun rides!
Optimization: NVH reduced – enhanced engine mount structure, restructured exhaust system layout, more sound insulator in the floor.
Features: TVS SmartXonnect system with Bluetooth-enabled GPS navigation, call message alerts, and more on a dedicated mobile app.
Design Evolution
The Jupiter is a conservative design from day one, whether by design or accident, by design, to maintain brand identity and add a touch or two for current times. The 2025 version continues this trend, making more subtle, rather than drastic, changes.
Matched with the classic Jupiter LED backlit Position lamp and new LED headlamp, the boxy LED position lamps to the redesigned front apron adds up to the all new Jupiter LED to come equipped with a Lighting system that is as modern and efficient as it is stylish..
New sharper and bolder body graphics have been paired to Carbon Fibre elements to bring beautiful contrast in the overall look for the all new front apron and the larger mirrors, now in black with bits of Carbon fibre-contrasted in white adds a bit of bling and yet not taking away from the essentially lazy form of the Jupiter.
At the rear you can expect updated LED taillamps, including an exclusive light signature for improved rear visibility with a premium look.
Matte colors will remain an option too, interpretations of glossy finishes seen on the premium end, that consumers love. There’s tasteful chrome trim, and it manages the difficult task of being tasteful and completing a nod to luxury without being overdone or screaming of being showy.

Feature Set and Variants
The Jupiter has always been well-equipped for features that you’ll use if you’re going, say, on a commute or errand in the city. And the 2025 range sees more of the same when it comes to philosophy:
An external fuelling cap removes the need of lifting the seat upwards in order to fill the tank on these 500cc ENDURO mates!
Front disc brake as standard across the range
On-pass switch and side engine kill switch are more like a bike than a moped
All-LED lighting on top-of-the-range models
Front storage pocket with USB phone charging port
Exclusive Econometer allows the rider to see the cost savings from their efficient activity
The trim lines are the same, too, as the model family spans from the base Drum up to the Disc in the middle, the comfort-oriented Classic and the feature-laden ZX package content.
For 2025, the new Jupiter Carbon model brings with it carbon-fiber-pattern accents and special black-and-white colorways, which are geared towards the younger riders who want their scoot’s aesthetic to stand out.
Riding Dynamics
And that’s just it, the Jupiter has never been a bike for sprinting at race wins, but for family Žriders after stability and security.
And despite having telescopic front forks and a gas charged rear shock it’s not all that sporty, working more towards the heavy end of the cushy slit where an overwhelming amount of the experience was drawn into the coozy realm of the comfort-first scooterring way of feeling.
On both this and the 2025 model, Yamaha skinny’d those wheels down to 12-inchers both front and back, a spec that contributes to the Jupiter’s very planted feel compared to bikes with smaller wheels.
The 1,275mm wheelbase assures stability without sacrificing anything in terms of city maneuverability.
You don’t get to see this much on a commuter scooter or even at this price point and that’s the one thing taking the Black to the next level in that brakes are sorted which sees a 220mm up front disc and the TVS’ Sync Braking System (SBS) – a linked braking system that even if you use a single brake, say the rear, initiates braking for the front as well.
Market Impact and Competition
The Jupiter is still the second highest selling scooter of India even in 2025, selling over 60,000 units per month. This is an impressive performance considering the intense competition that is growing and existing.
The key challengers are the Honda Activa, Suzuki Access and, more recently, the electric scooters from startups like Ather, and Ola.
the Jupiter response 2.jg to the electricity competition focuses on these critical factors:valuebusiness modelproven performancethe true benefits of extremely fast refuellingwhich make Jupiter the pragmatic choice while the EV ecosystem is further populated.
Future Trajectory
Beyond 2025, it’s a good bet the Jupiter mission will change significantly, industry analysts say. TVS has already demonstrated electric ambitions with the iQube, so a Jupiter Electric seems a given.
And the company’s investment in ethanol-friendly engines suggests potential flex-fuel editions as India develops its biofuel infrastructure.
TVS Jupiter 2025:
The acceptance of the TVS Jupiter proves that making a thoughtful product with common sense matters OVER the spec-sheets fight.
By upholding quality and prestige and making technological progress step by step, TVS scooter is now in the leading position in vehicle industry compared with old-fashioned counterparts.
AM created a bike as comfortable on the city streets as it is off the beaten track, and the company’s lead designer believes “every bike owner will want to have one in their collection”.
For the millions of Indian families who own the scooter, the Jupiter is not merely a mode of transport, but a trusted companion on their day-to-day travels — the truest measure, perhaps, of its success.
