Design details
Multipoint projector headlamps and aerodynamic winglets
The new Ntorq 150's design is inspired by stealth aircraft. It features multipoint projector headlamps, aerodynamic winglets, a naked motorcycle-style handlebar, and a signature 'T' tail lamp. The scooter can be had in two trims: Standard Ntorq 150 and Ntorq 150 with TFT cluster. The higher-spec variant comes with a hi-resolution TFT cluster and TVS SmartXonnect offering over 50 connected features, including Alexa and smartwatch integration.
Feature highlights
It also gets traction control and ABS
The Ntorq 150 comes with ABS and traction control, a first-in-segment feature. It also offers hazard lamps, emergency brake warning, crash and theft alerts, and follow-me headlamps. Comfort features include telescopic suspension, adjustable brake levers, a patented E-Z center stand, and 22 liters of under-seat storage. The new model sits above the popular Ntorq 125 in TVS's lineup, which has sold over 20 lakh units so far.
Market competition
The scooter will compete against these models
The new 150cc variant will take on performance-oriented scooters such as the Aprilia SR 160 and the Yamaha Aerox 155. It will also target young buyers who prefer motorcycles in the same price bracket. The new TVS Ntorq 150 will be available at dealerships across India starting this month, further expanding the company's scooter portfolio.
