TVS Apache and Ronin Get New Features for Festive Season

TVS Apache and Ronin Get New Features for Festive Season

TVS has updated its Apache and Ronin motorcycles ahead of the festive season, mainly by adding safety, connectivity and convenience features rather than changing the engines. The changes matter if you are already shortlisting these bikes, because some of the useful equipment is now available higher up the range without waiting for a full model change.

Apache 160 And RTR 160 4V Updates

The Apache 160 dual-channel ABS variant now gets TCS, hazard lights and LED indicators. It is offered in Matte Black, Pearl White with red alloy wheels, Arctic Teal and Granite Grey, with prices starting at ₹1.28 lakh.

The RTR 160 4V gets a TFT display with Google Maps mirroring, panic brake alert and a Type-C charging port. It starts at ₹1.414 lakh and is available in Arctic Teal with Champagne Gold alloy wheels, Matte Black, Racing Red and Marine Blue.

RTR 200 4V And Apache 310 Changes

The RTR 200 4V gets front-adjustable USD suspension along with the TFT display, Google mirroring, panic brake alert and Type-C charging. Its price starts at ₹1.499 lakh ex-showroom Delhi.

The Apache RR310 and RTR 310 get Black Diamond Editions with an all-black treatment and new livery. The RR310 also adds Keyless Ride, while prices start at ₹2.878 lakh for the RR310 and ₹2.490 lakh for the RTR 310.

Ronin Gets A New BASE+ Variant

The Ronin gets a new BASE+ variant with dual-channel ABS and a new livery. The mid variant adds a connected cluster and Type-C charger, while the top variant gets TCS, Type-C charging and a premium seat.

  • New Ronin colours are Sunlit Yellow and Desert Mirage
  • Ronin prices range from ₹1.425 lakh to ₹1.636 lakh
  • Apache 160 gets TCS on the dual-channel ABS variant
  • RTR 200 4V gets adjustable front USD suspension

For buyers, this looks more like an equipment reshuffle than a reason to replace an existing bike. The safety and charging upgrades are easier to appreciate in daily use, while the new colours and Black Diamond editions mainly give buyers more choice.
