TVS Motor Company (TVSM) has officially begun dispatching its OBD-2B compliant range of two-wheelers, starting with the TVS Jupiter 110. The updated scooter is now available across dealerships in India, with a starting price of Rs 76,691 (ex-showroom, New Delhi) for the base variant. This move marks TVS’s commitment to adopting advanced emission norms and enhancing vehicle efficiency, aligning with the latest regulatory standards.
Benefits of OBD-2B Compliance
TVS has confirmed that its entire two- and three-wheeler portfolio will transition to OBD-2B standards before the end of March 2025. The OBD-2B (On-Board Diagnostics) technology is a significant upgrade, allowing real-time monitoring of critical engine and emission parameters. Equipped with advanced sensors, these vehicles can track throttle response, air-fuel ratio, engine temperature, fuel quantity, and engine speed. The Engine Control Unit (ECU) processes this data in real-time to ensure optimal performance, enhanced durability, and lower emissions, making TVS vehicles cleaner and more eco-friendly throughout their lifecycle.

The TVS Jupiter 110 OBD-2B compliant model is available in four variants, catering to different customer preferences. The base Drum variant is priced at Rs 76,691 (ex-showroom), making it the most affordable option. The Drum Alloy variant, which offers alloy wheels for enhanced aesthetics and durability, is priced at Rs 82,441. The Drum SXC variant, featuring additional styling and convenience features, costs Rs 85,991.
