Banking on the popularity of the sub 125cc scooter, the TVS Ntorq 125 BS6 price has been a key growth driver for TVS Motor. Unveiled in February 2018, it instantly became a hot seller in the Indian two-wheeler market. The reason is its unique design language, a torque-focused powertrain, and various first-in-segment features that the scooter comes with. As a result, as of FY2023 the two-wheeler has clocked cumulative sales figures of 1.45 million units sold, with an average of 20,000+ monthly sales.
It’s not just about a unique design, as the TVS Ntorq BS6 has a lot on offer for buyers. As of 2018, the 125cc scooter category was not a mass-market segment. It used to have its niche, specific audience. However, the segment lacked punch, which changed forever with the launch of the affordably priced TVS Ntorq BS6. Here are the key parameters that helped the Ntorq become the country’s first performance scooter.
The Design
Although, the initial model, back in 2018, had a simple design and solid-coloured lineup, with no decals or any flashy stickers, the newer models of the TVS Ntorq BS6 boasted of better vinyl work iteration. There is a collaborative variant as well – the TVS Ntorq X MARVEL, which had a series of colour schemes that resemble those of the well-known ‘Avengers’ by Marvel Comics. The scooter also comes in a very distinctive Metallic Red & Blue, Matte Red, Race Red Black, and Race Edition Yellow colour variants, all of which sport an elegant-looking exhaust and perfectly colour-coordinated alloys.
First-In-Segment Features
Since its launch, the TVS Ntorq has grabbed the crown for being the first performance scooter in India that comes integrated with a fully digital console and state-of-the-art Bluetooth enabled SmartXonnect technology, which offers a wide variety of connected features with voice command. It also happens to be the first scooter with 12” alloy wheels and beefy tyres, a dedicated USB charger, and a massive 5.8 litres fuel tank.
Class-Leading Performance
When you push the ignition, the scooter’s exhaust note is more than enough to offer you a sense of what this 125cc single-cylinder power unit is capable of. The Ntorq comes with a 3-valve CVTi-Revv engine that delivers a racing inspired performance. The peak power of 9.25 bhp comes at around 7000 rpm and peak torque of 10.5 Nm is generated at 5500 rpm, which helps the scooter achieve 0-60 km/h speed in just 9sec and a top speed of 95km/h. The scooter comes with three trip metres, a power eco-mode indicator LED, and a Bluetooth connected speedometer.
Smart Connectivity
One of the best first-in-segment features that the Ntorq is equipped with is the TVS SmartXonnect, a revolutionary connected technology introduced by the manufacturer. The connected features of this technology include navigation assist, caller ID, last parked location assist, ride share status via social platforms, and much more, to ensure you can stay connected even when you’re on the move.
There’s so much on offer that at this rate, the Ntorq 125 BS6 is sure to rule the Indian roads for a long time to come! The TVS Ntorq is available in five variants, which are the base variant, Race Edition, Super Squad Edition, Race XP, and the TVS Ntorq XT. Each has its own colour schemes and certain unique elements.
