Ather 450 vs New TVS Jupiter Comparison

It is a viable alternative to a conventional scooter offering impressive performance, excellent riding dynamics and, sheer practicality despite the limited range. The scooter's tech-laden nature also makes it quite the gadget to have. With an asking price of about ₹ 1.25 lakh (on-road, Bangalore), the Ather 450 isn't too differently priced than the top-of-the-line iPhone. In either case, it's a premium for what's on sale but we do think it's a worthy buy, for you will enjoy the experience.

TVS took a clear risk by changing the winning formula of the Jupiter, but the gamble paid off. By giving it a highly practical 33-litre boot and a front fuel filler, TVS has made running daily errands much more convenient now. Also, the new 113.3 cc engine with the hybrid assist fixes the sluggish feeling old 110 cc scooters used to have when pulling away from traffic lights. While the fit and finish could be tightened up in a few spots, the comfortable ride quality and loaded tech sheet make the TVS Jupiter one of the smartest family-oriented purchases right now.

Preetam summarises,

“If better performance, superior dynamics, more storage and smarter features are what you’re looking for, then it’s difficult to look beyond the TVS Jupiter 110.”
