Updated: Tuesday, January 9, 2024, 14:45 [IST]

ust one week into 2024 and we're already anticipating a slew of new scooter models that are set to rev up the coming months. From sleek city scooters to adventure-ready rides, let's dive into the probable petrol-powered scooters expected to make a splash this year.

Hero Xoom 160

First up is the Hero Xoom 160, which made waves at EICMA 2023. Touted as Hero MotoCorp's inaugural venture into the adventure scooter segment, the Xoom 160 stands tall with its robust stature.

Under the hood, it's driven by a 156cc single-cylinder engine equipped with Hero's innovative i3s technology. Exact power output remains a secret, but the scooter will boast regular telescopic front forks, dual rear shocks, and a braking system with front and rear discs anchored to 14-inch wheels with block-pattern tyres.

For that extra touch of modernity, it will feature LED lighting, a smart key, and a remote key ignition, among other smart features. With an expected price tag ranging from Rs 1.20 to 1.30 lakh (ex-showroom), the Xoom 160 is one to watch for its later debut this year.

Hero Xoom 125R

Not to be overshadowed, the Hero Xoom 125R is also gearing up for the spotlight. Having been spied during testing rounds in India, this scooter's design is aggressively modern, with bodywork that boasts a dynamic array of cuts and creases.

The 125R will house a 125cc engine paired with a CVT gearbox, and it doesn't skimp on features. Expect full LED lighting, sequential LED indicators alongside a fully digital instrument cluster complete with Bluetooth connectivity and turn-by-turn navigation.

TVS Jupiter 125 Classic

TVS is a name synonymous with versatility, and the Jupiter 125 is no exception. With three variants on offer, whispers suggest that a Classic variant might join the lineup. Envisioned with a visor, an array of paint schemes, and additional functional elements, the Jupiter 125 Classic could elevate the riding experience.

Updated Vespa

Vespa continues to charm India with its 125cc and 150cc models, and 2024 might see this icon don new cosmetic flourishes. While the brand's hallmark design is here to stay, expect new paint schemes and perhaps special edition models to keep the lineup fresh and alluring.

Yamaha NMAX 155: The Maxi-Scooter Marvel

Following the success of the Yamaha Aerox, Yamaha India is all set to broaden its maxi-scooter portfolio. The NMAX 155, with its butch and tall stature, offers an alternative to the sportier Aerox. Both share a 155cc heart, but differ in aesthetics and appeal. With Yamaha teasing a new launch announcement on January 9, the NMAX 155 is a strong contender for the spotlight.

To conclude, the year 2024 is shaping up to be a thrilling one for scooter enthusiasts in India. With innovative features, stylish designs, and a range of options to suit various preferences and riding styles, the Indian two-wheeler industry is poised to offer something for everyone.
