TVS Motors is gearing up to launch a new variant of the NTorq 125. It could be called the NTorq 125 XT.



While details of the new variant are scarce, it is expected to be positioned at the top of the NTorq range, which currently includes the Standard, Race, Super Squad and Race XP variants.

The teaser image suggests that the NTorq XT could get a new set of alloy wheels. The scooter also appears to have green decals on the front cowl.

The NTorq 125 XT is likely to be powered by a 124cc, single-cylinder engine. In the standard model, this engine puts out 9.25 BHP and 10.5 Nm, while the Race XP packs 10 BHP and 10.8 Nm. The engine is mated to a continuously variable transmission.

I hope they give rear disc brakes and few more tangible improvements rather than just cosmetic stickering

The boot looks surprisingly smaller compared to the existing models. Hoping it is because of the camera angle otherwise it has space just for a half helmet.

TVS Ntorq 125 XT launched at Rs 1.03 lakh (ex-showroom)

The Ntorq gets a top of the line XT variant, which is about Rs 13,000 more expensive than the Race XP.

Looks Great IMHO, But 13k more for a few minor changes and a better instrument cluster? Isn't it a bit too expensive? Should touch around 1.15 On Road easily.

TVS is easily amongst the most active, enthusiastic and enthusiast - oriented and run two wheeler brand in India, this too seems like a winner and I'am sure whatever minor short comings will be there will be proactively addressed by them.

The console seems to be cool too but personally only thing I do miss in my Bike's console which has Speedometer/ODO/Trip Meter/Fuel Guage/Gear indicator/RPM Meter/Fuel Efficiency Section is Navigation details through bluetooth and preferrably directly from Google Maps without any middle app involved, while this is a nice to have feature in a car, it is sortof a necessity in a 2 Wheeler, especially for people like me who don't like to mount their phones in the bike or wear any sort of earphones while riding. (A possible safety hazard)
This seems to address that (and much more too) but food delivery indication is the most random and abstract feature I have ever heard in any car/bike. :D The use case for that seems ultra slim to me.

I think this is a ridiculous proposition. All that premium for a big screen giving out information that you can get on your mobile and you have no use for on the go, doesn't really seem to make sense.

They should rather have launched a GT version, setup for touring, a la the Burgman. That would have made much more sense in my opinion.

The first thing I was checking for when I saw this news is the engine specs (given they launched the Race XP with bumped up BHP). I believe based on some news that its getting the base engine specs, making it a really ludicrous variant for the asking price.

I can’t see the logic of launching a much higher priced variant with the base engine specs when they’ve already gone the XP way sometime last year. I find it hard to imagine potential buyers will see INR 13k worth of incremental value in this variant over the Race XP. This video below by Zigwheels is bang on point.

It's almost as if a bunch of old people formed a think tank to figure out what the youth of today seek in a scooter and then just gave up and looked up the meaning of 'youth' in the dictionary and thought "ahh yess..guess we've figured it out boys" and came up with these great 'features'.

But seriously, what's the point of showing "food delivery status " on you scooter? What the...but...the hell !! (My head hurts :D)

How is the voice assistant going to work while stationary on even a moderately busy road with so much ambient noise? Let alone while riding. What is the purpose? lol:

My sister recently bought a nTorq 125. The very next day, the vehicle did not start up, and even the digital instrument cluster didn't turn on. They contacted the nearest service center. My sister doesn't know what was done to fix the problem, but whatever the ASC did seem to work.

However, 2 days later, the same problem recurred. That's when she informed me about the problem. I talked to the ASC incharge, and asked him what the problem was. He admitted that he doesn't know the actual problem, but that he's trying to do the following things:

1. Charge the battery
2. Clear the error codes
3. Check the fuses
4. And if the problem reoccurs, check the wiring

I suspect that the problem could be one of three things

1. A weak battery
2. Alternator
3. Wiring

I asked the service technician whether he plans to check the alternator, and to this he didn't give any definitive answer.

So my questions are

1. What's the best way to narrow down the source of the problem
2. Has anyone else faced the same problem, and if so, what are the solutions?
