TT Score
The Apache 160 is a well-rounded, fuel-efficient 160cc sports commuter that owners consistently rate highly, let down only by single-channel ABS on most variants and a drum rear brake across the range.
Who it suits
- Daily city commuter on a budget — At ₹1.27–1.42 lakh on-road depending on city, it undercuts most 160cc rivals while the ARAI-claimed 61 kmpl keeps annual fuel bills low even with petrol prices above ₹100/litre.
- First-time bike buyer stepping up from a — The 790 mm seat height and 137 kg kerb weight are manageable for shorter or lighter riders, and the self-start and alloy wheels come as standard across all variants.
- Rider who prioritises long-term reliabil — Our pool of 3,350 owner ratings returns a 4.5/5, a large enough sample to give real confidence that day-to-day dependability holds up well beyond the showroom.
- Style-conscious young professional — Eight colour options including Matte Blue, Pearl White, and the Racing Edition livery give the Apache stronger kerb appeal than most utilitarian 160cc peers at this price point.
Worth knowing
- · Full dual-channel ABS is confined to a single top variant — most variants carry only single-channel ABS (front only) with a drum rear brake, which is a meaningf
- · Owner-reported mileage of 45 kmpl is notably lower than the ARAI claim of 61 kmpl; real-world running costs will be meaningfully higher than the headline figure
- · The 12-litre tank and 107 kmph top speed suit city and light highway use, but buyers expecting long interstate touring or spirited highway riding should size up
