TVS Motors has set a new benchmark in the two-wheeler industry by unveiling the TVS Jupiter CNG, the world’s first CNG-powered scooter, at the prestigious Auto Expo 2025. This innovative vehicle is a significant leap towards sustainable urban mobility, demonstrating TVS's dedication to blending technology, efficiency, and environmental consciousness.
Advanced Features of TVS Jupiter CNG
The TVS Jupiter CNG is packed with advanced features that cater to both performance and environmental needs:
-
Engine Power
The scooter is powered by a 124.8cc single-cylinder engine that delivers 7.2hp at 6,000rpm and a torque output of 9.4Nm at 5,500rpm. This ensures smooth performance for daily commutes. -
Dual Fuel Options
Equipped with a 1.4kg underseat CNG tank and a 2-litre petrol tank, the Jupiter CNG offers flexibility in fueling, making it convenient and cost-effective. -
Impressive Mileage
TVS claims a fuel efficiency of 84km/kg on CNG and a combined range of 226km (using both petrol and CNG), offering excellent savings and fewer refueling stops. -
Top Speed
The scooter achieves a maximum speed of 80.5kph, making it apt for city rides while maintaining safety and efficiency.
TVS Jupiter CNG Design
The Jupiter CNG maintains the iconic design language of its petrol counterpart, the Jupiter 125. The scooter's elegant bodywork and ergonomic layout are untouched, apart from the inclusion of a CNG identification sticker on the front.
However, one notable change is the loss of underseat storage space due to the placement of the CNG tank. This modification was necessary to accommodate the innovative dual-fuel system.
Modern Features to Enhance Everyday Use
The TVS Jupiter CNG is designed to meet the practical needs of riders:
- Digi-Analogue Display: Provides clear and concise information.
- USB Charging Port: Ensures your devices remain powered on the go.
- Start/Stop Technology: Enhances fuel efficiency by reducing idle consumption.
