Top Mopeds of 2018: Which Ruled the Roads in India?

Searching for the best moped of 2018 in India? Look no further! The year 2018 saw a significant surge in the popularity of mopeds as a convenient and eco-friendly mode of transportation in the bustling streets of India. Amidst the wide array of choices, one moped stood out for its exceptional performance, affordability, and style.

The TVS Jupiter emerged as a clear winner among the best mopeds of 2018. Sporting a sleek design tailored for the urban commuter, the TVS Jupiter offered a perfect blend of efficiency and comfort. Equipped with a robust 109.7 cc engine, the Jupiter promised a smooth ride with a great mileage of 62 kmpl, which resonated well with the cost-conscious Indian consumer.

Not only did the TVS Jupiter impress with its economic fuel consumption, but it also came packed with features such as an external fuel filler cap, eco mode indicator, and ample under-seat storage, making it a practical choice for daily commutes. Moreover, its Advanced Telescopic Suspension and Gas Charged Rear Shock Absorbers absorbed the shocks from potholes and rough roads, providing a comfortable ride even on challenging terrains.

The Jupiter's closest competitor, the Honda Activa 5G, also gained significant attention in 2018. This moped was famed for its reliability and the introduction of LED headlamp and position lamp, adding a touch of sophistication to its design. With a dependable 109.19 cc engine and a mileage of 60 kmpl, the Activa 5G was a favorite among Indian families for its easy riding stance and sturdy build.

While these models stole the spotlight, 2018 also saw other notable mopeds such as the Hero Destini 125 and Suzuki Access 125, each bringing something unique to the table. The SmartXonnect system in the TVS Ntorq 125 made it a tech-savvy choice, whereas the Suzuki Burgman Street 125 appealed to those looking for a more premium and spacious ride.

As we reflect on the mopeds that shaped the Indian roads in 2018, it's evident that the TVS Jupiter, with its all-rounded features, claimed the top spot. Its blend of performance, comfort, and value made it the go-to moped for India's diverse consumers.

So, if you were to ride down memory lane or are considering a pre-owned option, the TVS Jupiter, Honda Activa 5G, Hero Destini 125, Suzuki Access 125, and the tech-forward TVS Ntorq 125 are the names to remember. Each moped, with its own set of advantages, contributed to the vibrant landscape of two-wheeled commuting in India during 2018.
