EXTERIOR DESIGN AND FEATURES

The first thing you notice about the Jupiter scooter is its overall dimensions, especially its wheelbase, which translates into a lot of space between the handlebar and the rider. In fact the large front leg space of 375mm is the largest in its segment and the 1275mm wheel base is also the largest in its segment. The scooter comes with LED headlamp and LED tail lamp, the latter making this scooter the only one in the segment with such a feature. The tyres too are large as the Jupiter comes with 12-inch alloy wheels, which again is the largest in segment. The exterior of this scooter is tough as it has a sturdy metal body, unlike a lot of plastic used by several competitors.

You also get a front mobile charging socket with a convenient space in front to either put your mobile while charging or can be used as a bottle holder.
