Recently Asked User Questions

Q. Which Scooter is better TVS NTORQ 125 Or Honda Activa 6G ?
  • Ntroq125
Q. Which is a good scooter to buy Honda Activa 6G or Suzuki Access 125?
  • Both cars are good in their own forte. Activa 6G packs a very refined motor and finally gets a telescopic front fork. Overall, the Activa 6G offers a much smoother engine, better-claimed fuel efficiency, as well as slightly improved handling and ride quality, ensuring that it fills the shoes of its predecessor rather well. On the other hand, The Suzuki Access 125 is one of the most refined scooters in India. It offers superb ride quality and soaks up bumps really well. It has all the crucial updates to help it continue its streak of being the best-selling scooter in the 125cc segment. Sure it does have its own set of shortcomings but as an overall package, the Suzuki Access 125 is capable of holding its own in the competitive segment. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test ride before making the final decision. Follow the link and select your desired city for dealership details.
Q. Which is a better choice: TVS NTORQ 125, Suzuki Acess or TVS Jupiter?
  • All three vehicles are good in their own forte. The latest variants of the NTorq offer something for everyone - the base model for the budget conscious, the Race XP for those who crave performance, and the XT for those who value tech. Truly one of the best scooters in India. On the other hand, the competition offers much more than just an LED headlight, an external fuel filler, an eco-assist indicator, and fuel injection. But being liberal with features wasn’t one of Suzuki’s strengths in the first place; its sweet little engine is what got people hooked on to it. The sheer eagerness and refinement of the motor along with its ease of use put other scooters to shame, thus setting a new benchmark in the 125cc family scooter segment. And the TVS Jupiter 125 is an excellent scooter when it comes to comfort and practicality. Its performance and fuel efficiency are also decent for a scooter in its segment. However, its high price tag is a bit of a bummer, as you find more features in its rivals at the same price point. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test ride before making the final decision. Follow the link and select your city and brand accordingly for dealership details.
