Since you have had such a good experience with TVS, you could stay within the company's fold and step up to something like an Ntorq 125 / 150. The Ntorq models pack in more performance - especially the 150. But it doesn't come at the expense of comfort or practicality, and they can easily be used on a day-to-day basis. 

However, if you want to stick to a family scooter, then you should look at options like the TVS Jupiter 125, Suzuki Access and the Honda Activa 125. Of the three, the Jupiter is the only one with the huge 33-litre underseat storage area - an unmatched USP - as well as 12-inch wheels at both ends, which will give you a more stable ride over rough roads. 

A test ride should help you decide which scooter is best for you. 

Since you have had a bad experience with TVS recently, we'll recommend you take a look at the Suzuki Access, Honda Activa 110 / 125 models and the Yamaha Fascino / RayZR Hybrid. These Japanese scooters have an excellent reputation for reliability and are generally uncomplicated and inexpensive to service. 

We must mention that the current TVS Jupiter 110 / 125 are some of the most well-rounded scooters in our opinion, and should you be willing to look past your bad experience, these should serve you well. 

A test ride of all these options, as well as a chat with the service manager for these scooters. It will help paint a clearer picture and help you make an informed decision. 

In the family scooter segment, our current top picks are the Suzuki Access, TVS Jupiter 110 / 125 and Honda Activa 110 /125. All are smooth, decently comfortable and will be fuel efficient as well as reliable in the long run. 

If you want a sporty scooter, then the TVS Ntorq 125 is your best bet. Although its fuel economy will be a little lower than the others if it is ridden spiritedly. 

Take a test ride of all your preferred options before you decide. 

Since you are familiar with the TVS bike ownership experience, you could stick with the brand's products and go for the Jupiter 110 / 125, depending on your preference. Both are smooth, practical, fuel-efficient, reliable, feature-rich and lightweight products. Their 33-litre underseat storage area is a particular highlight, something no other rival can match. 

On the other hand, the Honda Activa, while a dated product in some areas, is also a hassle-free scooter. It's a product you really can't go wrong with. 

If you want to look elsewhere, the Suzuki Access 125 is also a fantastic all-rounder with a little more pep in its step than the two 110cc family scooters mentioned here. 

A test ride of all three will help you decide what is the best option for you.

In the family scooter space, consider the TVS Jupiter 110 and 125, Honda Activa 110 and 125, as well as the Suzuki Access, which are our top picks in the category currently. 

Since you haven't mentioned a price cap or displacement range for the motorcycle, we will provide options from both the 125cc and 160cc commuter classes. They will be easy-going, frugal, comfortable, and affordable machines to buy and own. 

In the 125cc class, bikes like the Honda Shine 125 / SP125 / Honda CB125 Hornet, Hero Xtreme 125R / Super Splendor / Glamour and TVS Raider warrant strong consideration. 

Coming to the 160cc class, bikes like the Bajaj Pulsar N160, TVS Apache RTR 160 4V, Honda Unicorn / SP160 and Yamaha FZ models are worth taking a look at.

Take a test ride of all before you make a decision. 

The TVS Ntorq 150 is the most powerful scooter in your shortlist, and it will also be the most fun to ride. It is also the most feature-packed, with a TFT display, Bluetooth connectivity, riding modes and a host of other features. The TVS Jupiter 125 is a more practical option, with plush ride quality and a huge 33-litre underseat storage space. 

The Suzuki Access 125 is a family scooter with peppy performance that should be very reliable and fuel-efficient, too. The Honda Activa 125 doesn't have any one standout feature, but is a proven package you can't really go wrong with.

Take a test ride of all four so you can pick the one that best suits your needs.
