What to know about the Jupiter 125
The Jupiter 125 is aimed squarely at the household that has outgrown a 110 and does not want to think about it twice. The 124.8cc engine makes its 10.8 Nm low enough that the scooter pulls away from a signal with a passenger aboard without the CVT needing to be worked, and on an expressway it holds 80 km/h with reserve the smaller scooters cannot offer.
Equipment is where the value sits. The connected console mirrors navigation onto the instrument, shows incoming calls and reports vehicle health to a phone, and the whole package is priced within a few thousand rupees of the best-equipped 110s. TVS also fits single-channel ABS and a front disc on the upper variant, which is the specification most families actually need and most rivals reserve for a premium.
The compromise is composure. The rear shock is soft once a passenger is aboard and it floats over sharp ridges at speed, the styling is deliberately upright rather than stylish, and above 85 km/h the scooter is at its ceiling rather than merely cruising. For a household that carries two people more often than it chases a speed limit, none of those are dealbreakers.
- 10.8 Nm from 4,000 rpm — the strongest low-end here
- Bluetooth console with route navigation under ₹90,000
- Single-channel ABS and a front disc on the disc variant

Pros and cons
What we like
- Carries two adults without the effort a 110 demands
- Connected console with navigation at a commuter price

What we would change
- Rear suspension softens quickly with a passenger aboard
- Body styling is upright and conservative
- No composure left above about 85 km/h

Frequently asked questions
What is the TVS Jupiter 125 price?
The three listed variants run from ₹78,000 to ₹87,000 ex-showroom Delhi NCR, which undercuts most 125cc rivals while offering more equipment than the equivalent 110s.
What mileage does the Jupiter 125 return?
TVS claims 55 kmpl. MotoSutra estimates 44-50 kmpl in city traffic and around 52 kmpl on a steady highway run, close to what a 110 manages with less effort in reserve.
Which Jupiter 125 variant is worth buying?
The disc model is the sensible floor — for ₹5,000 it adds a front disc, single-channel ABS and an LED headlamp. The SmartXonnect variant is worth the further ₹4,000 only if navigation and tracking will actually be used.
How does it compare against the Honda Activa?
The Jupiter has more torque, a longer saddle and better brakes; the Activa is lighter at low speed, cheaper to fuel and holds resale value better. A household that carries a passenger should buy the TVS.
