TVS Apache RTR 310: A game changer that redefines the world of naked sports bikes

In the fast-paced world of motorcycles, TVS Motor Company has launched TVS Apache RTR 310.

Launched in Thailand in September 2023 for the global market, this naked sports bike is exciting with its stylish design, powerful engine and advanced features.

Whether you’re an experienced rider or just starting out on two wheels, the Apache RTR 310 delivers an exciting experience on the road.

We recently rode this beast for around 200 kilometers and here are the five key features that make the TVS Apache RTR 310 stand out in the crowded two-wheeler market.

Powerful performance:

At the heart of the TVS Apache RTR 310 is the powerful 312.2 cc engine with a unique reverse-tilt DOHC engine for compact layout and optimal mass centralization. The engine has forged aluminum pistons that are 5% lighter in weight and delivers peak power of 35.6 bhp at 9,700 rpm and maximum torque of 28.7 Nm at 6,650 rpm. The powerplant is tuned to deliver full-range torque delivery, delivering an exciting experience throughout the power band.

Intelligent transmission system:

Power is transmitted seamlessly through a 6-speed transmission, showcasing a new bi-directional quickshifter. The drive-by-wire throttle system features a smart large 46mm throttle body to ensure crisp power delivery. The combination of advanced transmission and throttle control adds a layer of excitement to the riding experience, making every shift smooth and responsive.

Innovative rider assistance technology:

TVS Apache RTR 310 places great emphasis on rider engagement, safety and comfort. The bike comes with race-tuned linear stability control (RT-LSC) with straight-line dual-channel ABS, cruise control, linear traction control and rear lift protection. Cruise control is an excellent feature that allows the rider to maintain a set speed without constant throttle or clutch input, reducing fatigue on long rides. These technologies work in harmony to enhance overall safety and riding experience.

Dynamic lighting system:

The Class-D dynamic LED headlamp on the TVS Apache RTR 310 is a visual treat. Features three levels of light intensity adjusted according to speed, ensuring optimal lighting in different riding conditions. In addition, the new Dynamic Brake Light responds to emergency braking by triggering a rapid flash of light, providing an extra layer of safety and alerting other road users.

Customization options for TVS Build-to-Order (BTO) platform:

The TVS Apache RTR 310 introduces the innovative TVS Customization Platform (BTO), giving riders the freedom to personalize their machine. Two custom packages (Dynamic Package and Dynamic Pro Package) as well as a unique Sepang Blue Race Graphic option allow riders to express their individuality. The bike offers 12 unique freestyle accessories as well as a variety of safety gear and lifestyle merchandise. As an added benefit, customers get 24×7 roadside assistance and one year of free service after purchasing the bike.

in conclusion:

Having had the opportunity to ride the TVS Apache RTR 310, we can confidently say that it is a game changer in the cycling world. Advanced safety features and smart connectivity options make every ride an exciting experience.

However, the bike’s power delivery is very smooth and quick, which makes it less suitable for city riding. It is difficult to control the speed of a bicycle in city traffic. This bike is best suited for the track as it corners well and goes fast. The seating position is not suitable for long rides.

Overall, riding this beast was an amazing experience. The TVS Apache RTR 310 combines power, style and innovation to truly set a new benchmark in the naked sports bike segment.
