One of the most anticipated scooter launches is the Hero Maestro Xoom 110. It is essentially the Maestro Edge 110 itself but in a very sporty iteration. A photo of its silhouette was leaked a few months back at a dealer event of Hero. The upcoming scooter will get a new design to appeal to the young audience. Additionally, the chassis and its engine are likely to remain unchanged. However, Hero will re-tune this engine for sporty and engaging performance. Meanwhile, this scooter will also get new feature updates with the latest connected tech as well. Its expected price will remain around Rs 75,000 ex-showroom.
2 - Honda Activa 7G
It's been a really long time since the Activa 6G was launched in India. However, Honda has been silently working on its update if we believe the rumors. Ironically, no test mules of it have been spied on until now. But, there are rumors from our industry friends that Honda might debut the 7G model soon. Additionally, the new model is suspected to receive major technical changes to it. Also, Honda might equip it with the latest features. We're expecting that the new Honda 7G will be priced a few thousand more than the current model. Its expected price will remain around Rs 75,000-80,000 ex-showroom.
3 - Suzuki Access 125 EX
Suzuki will update its most famous scooter Access 125 in 2023. Suzuki Burgman EX was recently introduced in India. The new scooter received additional features and colour updates. In lieu of it, Suzuki will also add an EX variant to the Access 125. This new variant is expected to debut by half of 2023. Like the Burgman EX, the Access EX variant will get bigger 12-inch tyres. It is also expected to get new features like Bluetooth smartphone connectivity & turn-by-turn navigation system as well. However, it will be priced steeply like its sibling Burgman EX. Hence, we expect that the Access 125 EX will be priced around Rs 95,000 ex-showroom.
4 - TVS Jupiter 125
While the Jupiter 125 is already on sale, TVS will update it very soon. The updated model is suspected to get feature updates. These might include a new digital cockpit with multi-info display. One such addition was recently seen on its cousin scooter NTorq 125 XT. Hence, TVS shall carry these tech advancements on its popular Jupiter 125 as well. The digital screen might show important stats as such the navigation, service reminder, ride data, & etc. However, the Jupiter 125 will remain unchanged mechanically with this update. We expect that TVS will price it around of Rs 95,000 ex-showroom upon its launch.
5 - TVS NTorq 125 Super Squad Edition
Additionally, TVS will update its NTorq range of scooters in India. This update is going to be only cosmetic as a new special edition range will be introduced. TVS is planning to debut Super Squad Edition of NTorq. This edition will carry forward paint schemes inspired by the Marvel comic cartoons. These new paint options will include special characters like Dr. Strange, Ant Man, & Guardians of Galaxy. Apart from the edition of these new paint shades, there will be no other changes to it. However, the company will revise its pricing little bit. We suspect that the Super Squad Edition NTorq will be priced around Rs 90,000 ex-showroom.
