Updated TVS Jupiter Classic: cosmetic changes

The Jupiter Classic gets a number of cosmetic touches to make it stand out when compared to the other variants. It gets a tinted visor at the front and brown body panels (other variants get black panels). The mirrors also get a black finish compared to the chrome one on other variants. The design of the Jupiter Classic’s diamond-cut wheels is similar to the one seen on the Jupiter 125. 

The front apron gets new graphics as well, with Jupiter badging now running across it from top to bottom. On the front apron, there is a ‘5 million’ badge, a reminder of TVS scooters' popularity in India. 

Updated TVS Jupiter Classic: underpinnings 

While a lot has changed on the cosmetic front, mechanically, the Jupiter Classic sports the same underpinnings as the other variants. The 109.7cc, single-cylinder, air-cooled engine is good for 7.8hp at 7,500rpm and 8.8Nm of torque at 5,500rpm. As is the norm, this engine is mated to both an electric starter as well as a kick starter. The front and rear wheels are of the same size, at 90/90-12. Its braking hardware comprises a disc at the front and a drum brake at the rear. Suspending this 109kg scooter is a telescopic fork and a three-step adjustable twin shock absorber. 

Updated TVS Jupiter Classic: price and rivals

TVS has priced the Jupiter Classic at Rs 85,866, making it Rs 2,220 more expensive than the TVS Jupiter ZX SmartXonnect and Rs 5,000 dearer than the previous model. Rivals to the Jupiter Classic include the Honda Activa Premium Edition (which costs Rs 10,000 less) and the Hero Pleasure.
