In terms of price, it is expected that the new Jupiter 125 will be similar to that of Ntorq 125. In terms of power, the TVS Jupiter is expected to feature the same engine as the Ntorq 125. The 124.8 cc single-cylinder air-cooled fuel-injected engine could be used with slight modifications for better fuel economy.
In term of features, the scooter could get a sharp body panels, a fully digital instrument cluster along with Bluetooth connectivity. However, it is quite early to assume about the functions and specifications of the new scooter.

While the drum brake variant costs Rs 77,500, the disc brake variant costs Rs 85,469. Some prominent features of the bike include a muscular tank, split-seat set up, sharp led design etc.
