TVS Motor Company is set to unveil a new two-wheeler model on August 22, and all signs point towards the much-anticipated facelift of the popular TVS Jupiter scooter. Previous reports have hinted at TVS’s plans to introduce an upgraded Jupiter this year, and the company’s recent invite for a virtual launch confirms these speculations. Before the official launch, select media outlets will have the opportunity to experience the updated Jupiter firsthand.
The Jupiter has consistently been a top-selling scooter in India over the past decade, playing a pivotal role in TVS’s success. Currently available in both 110cc and 125cc variants, it’s expected that the 110cc version will receive the facelift treatment next week. This upcoming iteration promises a significant transformation compared to the current model.

Design Overhaul
It’s almost certain that the updated Jupiter will sport a fresh new look. TVS’s invite included a teaser image showcasing a sleek LED DRL, most likely positioned above the front apron. This suggests that the main headlamp might be relocated lower down, giving the scooter a distinctive new face.
The new Jupiter is also anticipated to feature redesigned panels and a revamped tail section with a different taillight assembly. It’s reasonable to expect the entire lighting setup to be LED, at least in the top-end variant. The seat and footboard are likely to remain flat, ensuring practicality, along with generous under-seat storage. TVS might also introduce exciting new color options for the revamped Jupiter.

Feature Upgrades
On the features front, the updated Jupiter is expected to boast a fully-digital instrument cluster. The top-spec trim might even offer Bluetooth connectivity and other smart features through the TVS SmartXonnect app. Other potential features include turn-by-turn navigation, a USB charging port, and a boot light.

Powertrain and Performance
TVS is unlikely to make any changes to the Jupiter’s powertrain. The scooter is expected to retain its 110cc, single-cylinder, air-cooled engine with Ecothrust Fuel injection (ET-Fi) technology, generating 7.4 bhp and 8.4 Nm of torque. Power will be transmitted to the rear wheel via a CVT gearbox.
The suspension setup will likely include telescopic front forks and a coil spring with a hydraulic damper at the rear. The 2024 Jupiter is expected to come standard with a front disc brake and a rear drum brake. The inclusion of single-channel ABS would be a valuable addition.
