Despite inheriting the same 8-year-old design of the previous models, TVS Jupiter still manages a fresh look and design. It comes with the elegance and sleekness of the mature two-wheeler audience would definitely appreciate. Unlike NTorq, the Jupiter does not feature flashy colours, and the starlight blue and Royal wine colour choices bring a premium feel to the scooter. It also features dual-tone seats, 3D logo along with a few chrome bits to upgrade its style quotient. The model is bare-boned and the standard model does not feature an USB Charger. A windshield has been added to the classic variants only.

The new LED headlamp is a significant upgrade from the halogen headlamps in the previous models. The bright and big indicators and the attractive tail-light set the tone while riding. The seat features a dual-tone brown and beige, which compliments the scooter’s overall look.
 

TVS Jupiter’s overall performance is impressive in the two-wheeler market in India. Registering almost mixed to positive reviews from users and critics, the bike is ideal for daily commuting. The 109cc, single cylinder, fuel injected, air-cooled engine is able to produce a maximum power of 7.4 PS at 7000 rpm and a maximum torque of 8.4 Nm at 5500 rpm. In order to meet the BS6 norms, the scooter has undergone a number of changes. Despite the integration of fuel injections, the scooter is restrictively tuned and it has lost a bit on performance. A slight gruffness might be felt at a low speed which is likely to go away at 35-40 kmph.

One positive side of TVS Jupiter is its ride quality. In the front of the scooter is the telescopic fork shock absorber, which is paired with a conventional 3-step preload adjustable mono-shock in the middle. Even though the TVS Jupiter does not offer anything extraordinary, it does not miss out on the basic features. A front disc brake option is available for the rider, and it also comes with a pair of drum brakes in the rear as well as in the front, which enables quick stop. Even with the simple features, the ride quality of the scooter is impressive, making it convenient and functional.

Even with simple and ordinary features, TVS Jupiter feels comfortable while riding and an ideal choice for daily urban commuting and long rides. The seats are well-cushioned and long, adding to the comfort of the rider as well as the pillion. Besides, the smooth suspension on the scooter is capable of absorbing most potholes and bumps, making the vehicle ideal for Indian roads. The sitting posture might feel strenuous after a long ride.
