TVS Jupiter special edition launched

The TVS Jupiter is one year old, and the company has launched a special edition to celebrate the occasion. The special edition TVS Jupiter has some new features and comes with a new paint shade. Only limited numbers of the scooter will be manufactured.

It has a new brown paintjob and contrasting beige inner panels; it also carries a new sticker on the front apron. Durability of the beige elements though, will be put to test in our dusty road conditions. Most prominent is a new seat. TVS calls it a ‘Dura Cool’ seat, and claims that it retains lesser heat when compared to normal seats. “If the vehicle is left parked in the sun, the heat content of the seat will be as much as ten degrees lower when compared to normal seats,” add a company statement. The Jupiter special edition is priced at Rs 48,925. (Ex-showroom, Delhi).

The special edition Jupiter is available across TVS dealerships now. The company has not revealed how many units are being manufactured, but yes, it will be a limited production run.

“Our focus has been to constantly provide freshness to our products and maximize customer delight and with TVS Jupiter increasingly becoming a preferred choice in its category, we felt that it would be fitting to celebrate with a special edition TVS Jupiter.” said K N Radhakrishnan, CEO, TVS.

2018 Lamborghini Urus India review, test drive

On first introduction, it’s a recipe for intimidation. It’s claimed to be the fastest SUV in the world (0-100kph in 3.6sec and a top speed of 305kph puts it nearly in supercar territory), and it’s made by Lamborghini – creator of some of the most savage vehicles on the market. Things – as with any Lamborghini, for that matter – would be a lot less daunting if we were driving on a smooth European country road, a wide motorway, or even a race track. But today we’re driving the Urus on a narrow ghat road, as well as through some heavy Pune traffic. Perhaps the intention was to demonstrate that this is the first Lamborghini ever to go on sale in India that truly works in our conditions – but still, I doubt they accounted for rush hour. It’s requisitely mad to look at, employing as many ‘sporty’ design tropes to an SUV body style as possible – the only thing missing is a massive wing on the back; and somehow, it works. It’s ...

Skoda Vision RS concept previews new hatchback

Skoda has set the stage for its forthcoming Volkswagen Golf and Ford Focus rival with the Vision RS, a concept car that features a performance plug-in hybrid (PHEV) powertrain. Under the sporty details and concept flourishes, the Vision RS bears a close resemblance to the Rapid hatchback that will be introduced next year. The fact that it has been previewed in vRS form, complete with 245hp PHEV powertrain, shows how much further upmarket the new Rapid will go compared with the current value-led model. Skoda product marketing chief Björn Kroll said: “The current Rapid is too low-market. For this one, we have tried to balance it out.” Skoda will drop the slow-selling liftback version and concentrate on the Spaceback hatch for the new Rapid. At 4,356mm, the concept is just over 50mm longer than the current Rapid, and it has a 440-litre boot that's up by 25 litres. The concept retains some of the current Rapid’s des...

What to avoid during a car service

When it comes to getting their cars serviced at authorised outlets, owners usually go the whole hog. They want their cars coming out of service centres looking brand new, and are willing to pay for it. But do service centres take undue advantage of this? Yes, they do. Servicing may involve changing certain parts and oils after a set interval, but service centres will almost always try to plug in a few extras using technical jargon that a layman may not really understand. Certain processes are completely unnecessary, and customers end up paying extra as they are not aware of what's important and what's not. Also, most of the times, the service associate will throw you a hard sales pitch, and it's not always done with your best interests in mind. So what exactly are the things you don’t really need and should avoid? Engine flushing Flushing an engine simply means cleaning the impure oil and gunk that ...
