ANIRUDHA, BENGALURU

My decision to buy the TVS Jupiter was made after a lot of research. I read as many reviews of the scooter as I could and went around the city’s showrooms taking test-rides. Once I took a ride on the Jupiter it was clear that this was the scooter I needed to buy. The most important thing for an Indian customer is a vehicle’s mileage and the TVS Jupiter returns close to 50 km/l when ridden within city limits; and this in a city as crowded as Bengaluru where most of the time we end up in stop-and-go traffic. The Jupiter is also fairly powerful for a scooter and I can easily get up to about 95 km/h without the scooter’s engine having to strain. The suspension, too, is well set up and, as a result, the ride quality is very good. Then, of course, there is the peace of mind that comes with TVS service support. So far they have addressed whatever minor requiremen­ts I have had without delay. I have now owned the Jupiter for over a year and in that time I have not faced any issues with the scooter. TVS’ Jupiter is one of the most popular scooters in its segment. What really attracted me to the Jupiter, after taking test-rides on several other competitor­s, were its alloy wheels that come as standard fitment. This TVS scooter also boasts of exceptiona­l and unmatched stability, be it on straights, through turns or even under braking. The fact that the fuel-tank filler-cap is located at the rear is an additional benefit since I don’t need to get off the scooter when re-fuelling. The other things I like about the Jupiter are its spacious under-seat storage space and the mobile charging point placed inside the compartmen­t. It offers comfortabl­e seats and an excellent suspension. What more could one ask for from a scooter? Perhaps, the only thing I would like to have is the option of getting a disc brake and ABS.
