TVS Jive Updates

Latest Updates
Friday, 15 November 2024 11:02 PM The TVS Jive, known for its innovative clutchless rotary gearbox, has been discontinued by TVS Motor Company. This unique bike was designed to ease riding in stop-go traffic, but it seems it didnt gain enough traction in the market. I think the concept was ahead of its time, and perhaps with more marketing, it could have done better.
Sunday, 20 October 2024 05:46 AM One of the standout features of the TVS Jive was its ability to ride in any gear at any speed without stalling, thanks to its centrifugal clutch. This made it particularly appealing for commuters navigating through chaotic city traffic. I believe this technology could still be a game-changer if reintroduced with some improvements.
Thursday, 26 September 2024 01:12 AM The TVS Jive boasted a 110cc air-cooled single-cylinder engine, producing 8bhp and 8Nm of torque, and was mated to a four-speed gearbox. It also featured a gear indicator on the instrument console, which was a rare feature in entry-level commuters at the time. I think this attention to detail showed TVSs commitment to innovation.
Thursday, 15 August 2024 05:31 PM Despite its innovative features, the TVS Jive did not achieve significant sales. Analysts suggest that the bikes lack of popularity might be due to its introduction on a platform that wasnt very popular among Indians. I believe that targeting the right market segment could have made a difference.
Thursday, 11 July 2024 12:39 AM The TVS Jive offered impressive fuel efficiency, with a claimed mileage of 62 kmpl. It also had a spacious under-seat storage area, which was a bonus for commuters. I think these practical features were some of the Jives strongest selling points.
Thursday, 20 June 2024 05:57 PM The bikes design was simple yet purposeful, with a clear lens headlamp integrated into a fairing. It also had a single downtube chassis and hydraulic twin shock absorbers, providing a comfortable ride. I believe the design was well-thought-out for its intended use.
Wednesday, 15 May 2024 11:02 AM TVS claimed that the Jive could return a real-world fuel efficiency of 55-60 kmpl, which was quite good for a commuter bike. This, combined with its low maintenance costs, made it an attractive option for daily use. I think the fuel efficiency was one of its key selling points.
Wednesday, 10 April 2024 09:34 PM The TVS Jive was targeted at the 25-40 year old commuter who rides more out of compulsion than choice. It was not meant for highway riding but was more than capable within city limits. I believe this focus on urban commuting was a smart move by TVS.
Monday, 25 March 2024 02:57 PM The Jive featured a unique clutchless system that allowed riders to start the bike in any gear, which was particularly useful in stop-and-go traffic. However, it had some limitations, such as not being able to shift into neutral from first and fourth gears while in motion. I think this was a minor trade-off for the convenience it offered.
Thursday, 15 February 2024 12:50 PM When launched, the TVS Jive was priced competitively, starting at around Rs. 48,857, making it an affordable option for commuters. I believe the pricing was one of the factors that could have made it more appealing if it had gained more traction.
Sunday, 06 April 2025 12:51 AM The TVS Jive was notable for its 4-speed rotary gearbox, a feature that set it apart from other bikes in its class. This gearbox allowed for seamless gear shifts without the need for a clutch, making it user-friendly for commuters. I think this innovative gearbox was a bold move by TVS.
Sunday, 06 April 2025 05:54 AM The TVS Jive was powered by a 109.7cc, 4-stroke engine that produced 8.4PS and 8.3Nm of torque. This engine was designed for efficiency and reliability, making the Jive a practical choice for daily riding.
Monday, 20 March 2023 12:24 PM The TVS Jive featured a sleek and modern design, appealing to riders who valued both style and functionality. It included features like a digital instrument cluster and a comfortable riding position, enhancing the overall riding experience.
Tuesday, 15 February 2022 01:41 AM When launched, the TVS Jive received mixed reviews from the market. While some praised its unique gearbox and fuel efficiency, others found it lacking in terms of raw power and performance. I believe the Jive was ahead of its time but needed more refinement.
Monday, 10 January 2022 01:53 AM The TVS Jive was one of the first bikes in India to introduce a rotary gearbox, which was a significant technological innovation at the time. This feature aimed to simplify the riding experience, especially for new riders.
Wednesday, 01 December 2021 04:18 PM The TVS Jive was produced for a limited period, and its sales were not as robust as expected. Despite its innovative features, it failed to gain widespread popularity, leading to its eventual discontinuation.
Tuesday, 15 September 2020 07:56 AM The TVS Jive was launched in India with a competitive price tag, aiming to attract budget-conscious buyers. However, the pricing strategy did not seem to work in its favor, as it struggled to compete with other models in the market.
Thursday, 20 August 2020 05:09 PM The TVS Jive was primarily targeted at urban commuters who needed a reliable and easy-to-ride bike for daily use. Its design and features were tailored to meet the needs of this demographic.
Friday, 10 July 2020 01:06 PM The TVS Jive came equipped with basic safety features such as drum brakes and a robust chassis, ensuring a safe riding experience for its users. However, it lacked advanced safety features that are now common in modern bikes.
Monday, 01 June 2020 04:23 PM The TVS Jive was eventually discontinued due to low sales and market demand. Despite its innovative features, it failed to leave a lasting impact on the Indian motorcycle market. I think the Jive was a bold experiment that didnt quite pay off.
