The 110cc scooter segment remains India’s backbone for first-time buyers, students and urban commuters who prioritise low running cost, easy handling and low ownership headaches. In 2025 the market is simple and pragmatic: Honda, TVS and Hero dominate the true 110cc space, while Suzuki has largely shifted to 125cc models — still relevant if you can stretch the budget slightly.

Market reality: who sells what in the 110cc bracket
- Honda: Activa brand continues to lead on reliability, resale and dealer reach. Some Activa 110 variants fall within the ₹75k–₹89k bracket depending on city and variant.
- TVS: Offers multiple sub-110/110 machines — notably Scooty Pep Plus (very affordable) and Jupiter (base/older trims) that can sit close to ₹90k after offers. TVS focuses on comfort and rider-friendly ergonomics.
- Hero: Pleasure / Pleasure Plus covers the lightweight, easy-to-ride niche with good mileage and low sticker price.
- Suzuki: No current new 110cc model in mainstream 2025 line-up. Suzuki’s scooter strength is in 125cc (Access 125, Avenis 125) which are pricier (usually > ₹90k). If you want Suzuki’s refinement, you’ll need to consider 125cc and a slightly higher budget.

Model-by-model quick take
Honda Activa 110cc
The default recommendation for conservative buyers. It’s not the sportiest or the fanciest, but the Activa’s biggest assets are predictable ownership costs, a massive service network and strong resale. If you plan to keep the scooter long term or resell later, Activa is the safe choice.
TVS Scooty Pep Plus
Targeted at students and very new riders — the Pep Plus is light, nimble and highly fuel-efficient. If your priority is the lowest possible purchase cost and ease of use in dense traffic, this is the most pragmatic pick.
TVS Jupiter (base)
Jupiter offers a more comfortable ride and bigger under-seat storage compared with typical 110cc scoots. The higher-trim Jupiters cost more, but basic trims can sit close to ₹90k and give a better real-world comfort package.
Hero Pleasure Plus
Hero’s Pleasure Plus hits the balance: compact size, decent mileage and attractive pricing. Good option when you want a simple, fuss-free scooter that’s easy to park and handle.
Suzuki (Access 125) — the realistic Suzuki angle

If you specifically want Suzuki, you should accept the category shift: Suzuki focuses on 125cc riders now. Access 125 gives better mid-range power and boot space but typically costs above ₹90k — a sensible upgrade if you can stretch the budget.
Buying checklist: what to verify before you pay
- On-road price in your city (taxes/insurance make big differences).
- Service network within 10–20 km — for scooters, proximity matters.
- Test ride for comfort — seat height, pillion comfort and ride quality.
- Check variant features — external fuel fill, digital console, boot lamp etc. (not all trims offer same features).
- Offers & exchange benefits — many dealers add cash discounts or exchange bonuses that push models below ₹90k.
Final recommendation
For strict budget and entry ease, TVS Scooty Pep Plus or Hero Pleasure Plus are the best buys under ₹70–75k. If you want the most reliable long-term ownership and resale, Honda Activa 110 is the leader. TVS Jupiter (base) is the pick if you prioritise comfort on longer city commutes. Choose Suzuki Access 125 only if you are willing to step up to 125cc and a slightly higher price bracket.
