TVS Motor updates Apache lineup in India and Italy
Overview
TVS Motor Company has expanded its Apache series with significant updates in both India and Italy.
In the European market, the Apache RTX 300 has officially launched in Italy across two distinct variants: the ‘Essential’, starting at EUR 4,890, and the ‘Adventurer’, priced at EUR 5,290. While both models utilize the 299cc engine and include features such as cruise control and traction control, the Adventurer variant provides additional equipment, including a bidirectional quickshifter, tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS), and adjustable rear suspension.
Simultaneously, TVS has updated its lineup in India. The 2026 Apache RTR 160, 160 4V, and 200 4V models now feature enhanced safety and connectivity. The RTR 160 includes a Dual Channel ABS with Traction Control System (TCS) variant priced at Rs 1.28 lakh, while the 160 4V and 200 4V models have been upgraded with TFT displays that support Google Map mirroring, Panic Brake Alerts, and Type-C charging ports. Furthermore, the company introduced ‘Black Diamond Editions’ for the Apache RR 310 and RTR 310, which feature all-black aesthetics and quickshifter technology.
Following GST 2.0 reforms, TVS has further restructured the 2026 Apache RTR 310 lineup in India. While the 312cc single-cylinder engine and core electronics—such as cruise control, traction control, and cornering ABS—remain the same, the company introduced new color options including Arsenal Black, Fury Yellow, Fiery Red, and the return of Sepang Blue via a Built-To-Order (BTO) program. Pricing for the RTR 310 now starts at approximately Rs 2.30 lakh for the Arsenal Black base variant, with quickshifter-equipped models starting at Rs 2.45 lakh, and an Anniversary Edition reaching Rs 2.98 lakh.
