TVS Jupiter now gets idling engine start / stop

TVS intelliGO is claimed to improve fuel efficiency and reduce emissions.

TVS Motors has launched an idling engine start / stop feature, which it calls TVS intelliGO. The Jupiter is the first product to get this feature.

TVS intelliGO is claimed to improve fuel efficiency. It is also claimed to reduce emissions as it switches off the engine during long idling, especially at traffic signals. The engine is fired up by just twisting the throttle.

TVS claims that the Jupiter is the first 110cc scooter in the industry to get this feature. The scooter's engine produces 7.3 BHP @ 7,000 rpm and 8.4 Nm @ 5,500 rpm. It is mated to a continuously variable transmission (CVT).

The TVS Jupiter with TVS intelliGO is priced at Rs. 72,347 (ex-showroom, Delhi). It is available in two colour options - Starlight Blue and Royal Wine.
