Priced at ₹1.19 lakh for the base model and ₹1.29 lakh for the top TFT variant (both ex-showroom, Delhi), it competes with established players like the Yamaha Aerox 155, Hero Xoom 160, and Aprilia SR 175. With performance-oriented styling and advanced features, the Ntorq 150 targets young buyers seeking sporty credentials wrapped in smart tech.
Engine Performance: Sporty Yet Practical
Equipped with a 149.7 cc air-cooled engine, the Ntorq 150 churns out about 13.2 PS and 14.2 Nm. It hits 0–60 km/h in approximately 6.3 seconds and pushes up to a claimed top speed of 104 km/h—offering genuine zest for city commuting and occasional highway bursts. The performance leap over the 125 cc sibling makes it one of the most powerful scooters in its class.
Safety First with ABS & Traction Control
Safety receives a significant upgrade with single-channel ABS—standard on all variants in compliance with regulatory mandates. TVS further differentiates the Ntorq 150 by offering switchable traction control, a segment-first feature that boosts confidence on wet or unstable surfaces. These additions reinforce the brand’s dedication to safer performance.
Tech-Rich Dash and Smart Connectivity
The Ntorq 150’s cockpit is feature-loaded. The standard model pairs a hybrid LCD + TFT display offering ride data, Bluetooth functionality, and navigation. The TFT variant steps it up with full-color touchscreen, over-the-air software updates, Alexa integration, live tracking, crash alerts, incognito mode, social media notifications, and smartwatch compatibility. All variants support dual ride modes—Street and Race—for rider customization.
Chassis Layout and Rider Comfort
Built on a proven tubular steel frame with telescopic forks and a rear monoshock, the Ntorq 150 provides a stable, compliant ride. Front stopping power comes from a 220 mm disc (plus ABS), while the rear uses a 130 mm drum brake. Weighing 115 kg, it’s maneuverable in traffic, thanks in part to its 770 mm seat height and 155 mm ground clearance. Practical touches like 22 litres of underseat storage and a 2-litre glovebox further boost usability.
