TVS Jupiter: A practical scooter designed for the urban male

Though TVS Jupiter has the appearance of a conventional scooter, it also has some masculine features that make it stylish, macho, and different from its peers. Such as the visor windshield that gets riveted above the headlamp; this gives it the ruggedness of a bike.

Below it, a prominent LED headlight comes fitted with a pair of pilot lamps, which assures the rider of safety during nighttime riding even if the main headlamp does not work for some time.

The headlamp resembles the one that debuted with the BS4 Jupiter Grande variant.

Just under the headlamp, the TVS logo appears in sharp contrast to the body colour.

A pair of ‘khukri’-shaped side indicators give it striking looks and great functionality to both sides. The mudguard is also stylishly designed, and the chrome accents on it nicely contrast with the colour.

The floorboard gives enough legroom, and the seat height of 765 mm is suitable for an average-sized rider to those who are a bit on the taller and heavier side.

The light-coloured footboard and the inner side of the apron enhance the scooter’s looks. It also features a pair of footrests for pillion riders.

Under the boot, a storage space of 21 litres gives adequate room for few additional belongings safe. A carry hook is just below the seat, holding the rider’s or passenger’s bag.

The seat is a flat one, and towards the rear, a cushioned backrest-cum-grabrail gives extra support and safety to pillion riders. Just below the grabrail, there’s a fuel cap, and below it, the tail light gets featured, which is well protected by a guard.

A flappable side footrest lies at the left, and the alloy wheels give the scooter a sophisticated look.
