The new TVS NTorq 125 base version comes with a 130 mm drum brake at the front as well as the rear. The higher versions get a 220 mm disc at the front for better stopping performance. The scooter does get CBS as a standard feature, keeping with the safety regulations that make the safety feature mandatory. Dealers also suggest that the new drum brake version of the NTorq has also skimped on a few features including the engine kill switch, underseat light and USB charger. Visually, the scooter gets no changes to denote this is the base variant, barring the missing front disc of course.

The NTorq remains the most affordable of the three, but will soon face competition from the Hero Maestro Edge 125 that is expected to go on sale soon.
