TVS XL 100 Heavy Duty specifications and features
Every figure from the manufacturer's sheet, plus what each feature actually does for you.
Engine and performance
The 100cc air-cooled engine makes 4.3 bhp and 6.5 Nm through a CVT automatic. With a kerb weight of 88 kg that is 49 bhp per tonne, 24th best power-to-weight of the 25 scooters in this class we have reviewed.
Torque is high relative to peak power, which is what you want for pulling away with a pillion and riding a gear higher in traffic rather than chasing the redline.
