TVS has just shaken up the Indian two-wheeler market with the launch of the new TVS Apache RTR 125, the most affordable model in its iconic Apache lineup. Priced at just ₹39,999 (ex-showroom), this motorcycle brings the signature Apache performance DNA to a broader audience. With its sporty design, efficient engine, and modern features, the RTR 125 isn’t just another commuter—it’s a revolution for riders who want both thrill and thrift. Delivering an impressive 80 km/l mileage, it’s designed for young riders, college-goers, and urban commuters who crave a blend of excitement and efficiency in one sleek package.
Sporty, Muscular Design
True to its Apache lineage, the RTR 125 flaunts an aggressive and muscular design language. From its sharp LED headlamp setup and aerodynamic tank shrouds to its compact tail section, every detail screams performance. The dual-tone body panels and bold graphics enhance its sporty appeal, giving it a premium look that belies its price. Even though it’s the entry-level Apache, the RTR 125 manages to look every bit like its bigger siblings—assertive, agile, and full of attitude.
Efficient Powerhouse
At its heart lies a refined 125cc single-cylinder, air-cooled engine tuned for both power and economy. Thanks to TVS’s Eco-Thrust Fuel Injection (ET-Fi) system, the Apache RTR 125 offers smooth acceleration and clean emissions while maintaining excellent fuel efficiency. The power delivery feels punchy in the mid-range, making it ideal for daily city rides or light highway runs. Whether you’re zipping through traffic or cruising along open roads, the RTR 125 delivers refined performance with minimal vibrations, something rare in this price bracket.
Fuel Efficiency
The biggest talking point of the Apache RTR 125 is its phenomenal 80 km/l mileage. TVS has fine-tuned the gearing and combustion system to extract the most out of every drop of fuel without compromising on performance. Add to that a large fuel tank, and you get longer commutes with fewer stops at the petrol pump—an essential factor for budget-conscious riders.
Comfort, Control, and Confidence
TVS has paid special attention to ride quality and comfort. The ergonomically designed seat, upright riding position, and telescopic front forks with a rear mono-shock ensure a balanced and comfortable ride across city potholes and long stretches alike. Weighing light and nimble, it’s easy to maneuver through crowded lanes, while the Synchronized Braking Technology (SBT) offers reliable, well-balanced stopping power. High-grip tubeless tires and a front disc with rear drum setup further enhance rider confidence and safety.
Modern Tech
The RTR 125 may be affordable, but it’s not short on features. A fully digital instrument cluster keeps you informed with speed, trip data, fuel level, and service reminders. You also get one-touch electric start, a hazard light switch, and maintenance indicators, adding a premium touch to an entry-level commuter. The bright backlight ensures easy visibility day or night.
Unbeatable Value and Durability
Built with robust materials and a rigid chassis, the Apache RTR 125 carries the durability and reliability that TVS bikes are known for. Despite its aggressive pricing, it feels solid, premium, and ready for years of dependable service. It’s a motorcycle that doesn’t just look sporty—it’s engineered to last.
With its sharp design, efficient 125cc engine, and unmatched ₹39,999 price tag, the TVS Apache RTR 125 is a total game-changer. It brings the racing spirit of the Apache series to a wider audience, without cutting corners on quality or features. If you’ve always wanted an Apache but couldn’t stretch the budget, this is your chance. Combining style, performance, and economy, the RTR 125 proves that great rides don’t have to come with great expenses.
It’s not just a commuter—it’s a Budget-Friendly Beast designed to thrill every day.
