TVS Jupiter VS Honda Activa 6G: The Honda Activa is not just another scooter on the market; it was the scooter that, roughly 20 years ago, helped to define the concept of the modern-day scooter. How does the Honda Activa 6G compare in terms of performance and mileage to its main competition, the TVS Jupiter?
The 110cc engines of both scooters produce comparable amounts of power and torque. And it is obvious that even the performance numbers are nearly equal, with the 0-60kmph acceleration test showing virtually no change. Yes, Jupiter triumphs, though with a very slim margin. This is true even though Jupiter weighs 107 kg kerb weight, 1 kg more than the Activa 6G.
On India's congested roads, both scooters are excellent for everyday travellers. But Jupiter's power comes on a little bit earlier than its competitor, making it slicker around the city. Nevertheless, the Activa 110 feels dynamic.
