Thinking of getting yourself a new set of wheels this festive season? Here’re the five scooters that offer the best value for money

It’s raining offers, which means it's probably the best time to pick up a set of new wheels. The scooter segment is a viable option if that’s what you’re looking for. But it could get quite overwhelming considering the number of options you have. So to make things a bit simpler, we’ve narrowed it down to the top five scooters that offer the best value for money proposition.   

1. TVS Jupiter BS6: Rs 64,077 (Starting Price)

The TVS Jupiter is one of the best options out there. There’s a reason why it’s the third best selling scooter in the market, bested only by Suzuki’s Access 125 and the Honda’s Activa range. It’s stood the test of time with top-class reliability and excellent built quality. Despite being a 110cc scooter, the Jupiter has a decent amount of performance, more than enough for your daily commutes, and a suspension setup that pretty much glides over rough roads. You have a total of 4 variants to choose from, starting from the base model and going up to the top-spec Jupiter Classic, which gets an LED headlamp, fuel injection technology, tinted visor and an apron-mounted USB charger.

5. Ather 450X: Rs 1,59,000

It’s safe to say that homegrown startup Ather Energy laid the foundation for electric scooters in India. What started off as the Ather 450 has now grown into the sophisticated, tech-loaded Ather 450X which pushes the envelope of what’s possible in the e-scooter segment. The 450X offers better connectivity features, a bigger battery pack and a slightly more powerful motor than the standard 450. It even delivers better claimed real-world range -- 70km in Ride mode and 85km in Eco. Its torque output has been increased from  20.5Nm to 26Nm which gives better drivability right from the get-go. Heck, the Ather 450X even gets Warp mode which improves acceleration considerably. Read all about the scooter here.
