TVS Motor Company is aggressively expanding its
line-up with new variants ahead of the festive season. The Hosur-based
two-wheeler brand has already launched the new Jupiter Grande, StaR City+
Special Edition, Radeon 'Commuter of the Year' celebratory special edition and
the Ntorq 125 Race Edition. Now, the company has announced the availability of
the Scooty Pep Plus in new colour options - Coral matte and Aqua matte.
The TVS Scooty Pep Plus has received no mechanical
changes. The matte base colour is complemented by a contrasting shade of black
on the front apron and on the body panels. The saddle gets unique graphics on
the cover, and the same pattern is also visible on select body parts. A 3D
Scooty Pep logo adds to the premium looks.
The matte paint version of the Scooty Pep Plus uses
the 87.8 cc, air-cooled Ecothrust engine that delivers 3.68 kW or 5 PS of
maximum peak power at 6,500 rpm and 5.8 Nm of maximum torque at 4,000 rpm. The
power-mill is paired with a CVT. The scooter features a 5-litre fuel tank, and
with a full tank, it weighs 95 kg (kerb).
Anchoring duties are handled by 110 mm drum units on
both wheels, while the safety net comprises Synchronised Braking Technology
(TVS’s terms for CBS). Shock absorption department comprises telescopic forks
at the front and a single-sided spring at the back. Key features standard of
the Scooty Pep Plus includes LED DRL, the company’s patented EaZY centre stand
tech, mobile charger socket and side-stand alarm.
The matte coloured variant is priced at INR 44,322*.
In comparison, the base variant retails at INR 43,264*. Apart from the Coral
matte and Aqua matte paint options, the Scooty Pep Plus is available in
Princess Pink, Vivacious Purple, Frosted Black, Nero Blue, Nero Brown, Revving
Red and Glittery Gold colour options.
TVS Motor Company will start rolling out its BS-VI
models post-October 2019. We expect the updated Apache RTR 200 4V and the
Apache RTR 160 4V to be among the first BS-VI compliant products from the Hosur-based
two-wheeler brand.
