Jupiter
As the world steadily moves toward cleaner and more sustainable mobility, electric scooters are becoming the go-to choice for urban commuting. Among the expected launches, the TVS Jupiter Electric stands out as one of the most anticipated offerings from the trusted two-wheeler manufacturer, TVS Motors.
TVS has already established a strong foothold in the electric segment with the iQube Electric, and now the Jupiter brand is expected to bring its own electric twist. Known for comfort, reliability, and affordability, the Jupiter range has long been a favorite among Indian commuters. An electric version of this trusted nameplate is sure to attract attention.
Design and Features
While the official design of the TVS Jupiter Electric hasn’t been fully revealed, early industry insights suggest it will carry forward the classic and practical styling of the petrol Jupiter, with some futuristic upgrades. Expect LED lighting, a digital instrument console, and a sleek yet robust body that appeals to both young riders and family users.
It’s likely to come with multiple riding modes, regenerative braking, and smart connectivity options such as mobile app support, navigation assist, and ride analytics. Given TVS’s focus on tech, the electric Jupiter could offer features that rival or even surpass its competitors.
Performance and Battery
Though official specifications are awaited, the Jupiter Electric is expected to offer a range of 75–100 km on a full charge, depending on the variant. A mid-level motor in the range of 2–3 kW could offer decent city performance with smooth acceleration and a top speed of around 70 km/h, ideal for daily commuting.
TVS is also likely to provide fast-charging support, reducing charging time significantly and adding convenience for users on the go. The battery pack will likely be lithium-ion and either removable or fixed, depending on the final design strategy.
Competition and Pricing
In the Indian market, the Jupiter Electric will go up against other popular models such as the Ola S1 Air, Ather 450S, and Bajaj Chetak. However, with the brand strength of TVS and the affordability traditionally associated with the Jupiter series, the electric version may undercut competitors in pricing while offering comparable features.
Expected to be priced between ₹90,000 to ₹1.10 lakh (ex-showroom), the Jupiter Electric could become a highly competitive option in its segment.
Final
The TVS Jupiter Electric scooter represents a bold yet sensible move by TVS Motors. By electrifying a brand as dependable as Jupiter, TVS is signaling its commitment to the future of urban mobility. For riders looking for a blend of trust, performance, and eco-friendliness, this upcoming electric scooter could be just the right choice.
