Concept

The TVS Apache RTR 160 4V was made with the essence of a champion that won 6 straight INMRC Championships – the RTR 165 Prototype. Mirroring the design language of 'Draken'- a concept shown at Auto Expo 2014 - further sharpened the design DNA of this pathbreaking race machine. It was conceptualized to have a compact race design, definitive shape, and an aggressive-forward biased stance. This performance machine is also designed to keep you safe, with Super-Moto ABS.

Race engineered to be a powerhouse, the RTR 160 4V is packed with raw racing performance and an unmistakable track presence. Built to be BS-VI compliant, this wins the race to the future with futuristic technology and a revamped aesthetic featuring:

  • RT-Fi - Race Tuned Fuel injection
  • Attractive race graphics & new seat
  • New LED headlamp with claw position lamps
  • All new aerodynamic claw mirrors
  • Wave bite key

Development

The design of the RTR 160 4V has been refined on the racetrack. The form of the machine has a singular function - to be the quickest around the track. The bike has been sculpted to be dynamic through corners, while its sharp edges make it imposing on the circuit. The chequered flag decals pay homage to our winning streak on the track.
