TVS Ntorq 150 Launched in India: Price, Specs, Features & First Ride Review

TVS Motor Company is trying a new trick to make a 150 cc scooter. Very few companies dare to make such a scooter.

First of all, it is worth saying that the TVS Ntorq 150 does not look like a big scooter. It looks like a normal 125 cc scooter, but its engine is 150 cc, which is more powerful. The price has also been kept in such a way that it catches everyone’s attention.

TVS says that it is a sporty scooter. But the question is, should you buy it? Let’s find out more about it in the first ride review.

TVS Ntorq 150 Price in India 2025

The TVS Ntorq 150 scooter has been introduced at ₹1.19 lakh (ex-showroom, Bengaluru). Two trims are on sale, with the range-topping model adding the TFT display and extra tech features, priced at ₹1.29 lakh.

TVS Ntorq 150: Engine

The powerplant is derived from the Ntorq 125’s 3-valve, single-cylinder unit, but with significant updates. Displacement has been bumped to 149.7cc by enlarging both bore and stroke, complemented by a lighter crankshaft. Unlike scooters such as the Aerox or Xoom 160, there’s no radiator fan here—TVS sticks with air-cooling, aided by an oil cooler. Output figures stand at 13.2 hp and 14.2 Nm, delivered to the rear wheel through a CVT and belt-driven system.

TVS Ntorq 150: Chassis & Braking

Though the 150 is bigger than the Ntorq 125, it doesn’t quite stretch into maxi-scooter proportions. That’s largely because of the heavy parts-sharing between both models. They ride on the same 12-inch tyres, use a familiar frame (beefed up for strength), and carry over suspension and starter-generator units. The key distinction lies in safety the Ntorq 150 brings in traction control and single-channel ABS.

TVS Ntorq 150: Performance

Thumb the starter and the scooter responds with a throaty, sporty exhaust note something TVS has built a reputation for. It feels eager off the line, managing 0–60 km/h in 6.3 seconds. Mid-range performance is smooth, with 60–80 km/h coming effortlessly. Crossing the 100 km/h barrier, however, does take some persistence. Refinement levels are good, with vibrations only showing up near the handlebars as you approach triple-digit speeds. That said, rivals like the Aerox 155 and Xoom 160 are still quicker and punchier overall.

TVS Ntorq 150: Ergonomics & Storage

Underseat storage measures 22 litres, joined by a small cubby on the front apron. With a seat height of 770 mm, shorter riders around 5’2” might need to stretch their toes at a standstill. At 115 kg, though, the scooter feels manageable. The saddle itself is broad and comfortable, though the footboard space could have been better optimized.

TVS Ntorq 150: Ride & Dynamics

Thanks to its 12-inch wheels, the Ntorq 150 strikes a neat balance between agility and stability. While not as flickable as its 125cc sibling because of the added bulk, it handles urban traffic without drama. The suspension setup errs on the firmer side, delivering a sporty edge to the ride. Since our test loop was on a smooth, flowing circuit, the true ride quality over city bumps and potholes remains to be tested.

TVS Ntorq 150: Styling

Design inspiration comes straight from the Graphite concept. The styling is sharp, aggressive, and offered in four eye-catching colorways. The front end does appear a bit heavy, but overall finishing and paintwork feel premium. Twin LED projector lamps handle headlight duties, promising solid night visibility. The top variant also features a full-color TFT screen with smartphone connectivity and built-in navigation.

TVS Ntorq 150: Price & Verdict

Perhaps the strongest card TVS has played here is pricing. With a starting tag of ₹1.19 lakh and topping out at ₹1.29 lakh (ex-showroom), the Ntorq 150 neatly undercuts bigger scooters like the Aerox 155 and Xoom 160. Instead of competing head-on, it fills a new niche offering buyers a sporty, feature-rich scooter that sits comfortably between the familiar 125cc class and the more premium maxi-scooters.
