Kolkata: TVS Motor Company, one of India’s leading two- and three-wheeler manufacturers, has launched the TVS NTORQ 150, billed as the country’s quickest and first hyper sport scooter. With a top speed of 104 km/h, segment-first safety features, and a stealth aircraft-inspired design, the scooter is being positioned as a futuristic mobility option for Gen Z riders.
Priced at ₹1.19 lakh (ex-showroom, all India) as an introductory offer, the NTORQ 150 blends performance, style, and smart technology into one package.
A Performance Benchmark
The NTORQ 150 is powered by a 149.7cc O3CTech engine that produces 13.2 PS of power at 7,000 rpm and 14.2 Nm of torque at 5,500 rpm. The scooter can accelerate from 0–60 km/h in just 6.3 seconds, setting a new performance benchmark in its category.
Design Inspired by Stealth Aircraft
Aimed at young, performance-oriented riders, the scooter draws heavily from stealth aircraft aesthetics. It comes with a forward-leaning stance, MULTIPOINT® projector headlamps, jet-inspired vents with integrated winglets, coloured alloy wheels, and a stubby muffler with signature exhaust note. The naked motorcycle-style handlebar and aerodynamic sculpting add to its sporty character.
Technology-Packed for the New-Age Rider
The NTORQ 150 is equipped with a hi-resolution TFT cluster powered by TVS SmartXonnect™, offering 50+ connected features. These include Alexa and smartwatch integration, turn-by-turn navigation, vehicle tracking, ride modes, social media and call alerts, and OTA (over-the-air) updates.
The adaptive TFT display also allows riders to customise widgets and navigate using a four-way joystick. This makes it the most technologically advanced scooter in its class, according to the company.
Safety and Rider Comfort
The NTORQ 150 introduces ABS and traction control in the scooter segment — both firsts. It also includes crash and theft alerts, emergency brake warning, hazard lamps, and follow-me headlamps. Rider comfort has been enhanced through telescopic suspension, adjustable brake levers, a patented E-Z centre stand, and a spacious 22-litre under-seat storage.
Colours and Variants
The scooter will be available in two variants:
- TVS NTORQ 150 – Stealth Silver, Racing Red, Turbo Blue
- TVS NTORQ 150 (TFT Cluster variant) – Nitro Green, Racing Red, Turbo Blue
Company Speaks
Aniruddha Haldar, Senior Vice President — Head Commuter & EV Business and Head Corporate Brand & Media, TVS Motor Company, highlighted the growing NTORQ community and the brand’s evolution.
“Over two million NTORQians and 50+ ride groups and communities define the relationship between one of India’s most loved scooter brands and its riders. The introduction of the NTORQ 150 is designed to meet the evolving high-performance aspirations of Gen Z. With its hyper futuristic design, hyper tuned performance, and hyper connected tech, the scooter will thrill riders and further expand the NTORQ brand franchise,” he said.
Market Impact
Launched originally in 2018, the NTORQ brand has cultivated a strong fan base among young urban commuters. With the NTORQ 150, TVS is looking to consolidate its position in the premium scooter segment by offering a blend of racing DNA, digital connectivity, and enhanced safety features.
Industry analysts expect the new launch to intensify competition in the performance scooter market, which has seen growing demand among younger buyers seeking both style and speed in their daily rides.
