TVS has launched the 2021 Apache RTR 160 4V in the country. Fortunately, the Hosur-based brand has ensured the bike is lighter, more powerful, and torquier, all without increasing the prices. Take a look at the variant-wise pricing and specifications:
Apart from these updates, TVS says the 2021 iteration has got a new dual-tone seat with a carbon-fibre pattern. However, going by the press images, the seat looks pretty much the same as before. The rest of the mechanicals, including the telescopic front fork, rear monoshock, 270mm front petal disc, and the 130mm drum/ 200mm petal disc, have all been untouched.
The 2021 TVS Apache RTR 160 4V is now the most powerful 160cc streetfighter, dethroning the Bajaj Pulsar NS160 BS6. Among its alternatives are the Yamaha FZ-S FI, Hero Xtreme 160R, and Suzuki Gixxer.

TVS’ pricing strategy is clever, considering the brand had already hiked the prices of the Apache RTR 160 4V by Rs 1,770 in January this year. That said, a more powerful and lighter bike at such a nominal premium is still impressive. The motorcycle is also the most feature-packed in its segment. TVS offers the RTR 160 4V in three colours: Racing Red, Knight Black, and Metallic Blue.

Apache RTR 4v black is quite good bike as compared to other brand. This bike offer 17 bhp and 15 nm torque which is quite fast coming to looks. It looks like naked super bike with red black colour combination. It offer three riding mode with tft display and abs braking which is single only with better mileage in this segment.
1 1 - Great Performance and Handling but City Mileage Co
I chose the TVS Apache RTR 160 4V TFT USD model mainly for its sporty design, features and strong road presence. The bike feels very stable on highways and comfortable for daily city rides. Handling is sharp and confidence inspiring. It is also good for family usage when riding normally. Overall the build quality, braking and features like TFT display make the bike feel premium in this segment. Ride quality so far has been very good. The Apache RTR 160 4V TFT USD has excellent handling and stability. In highways the bike feels planted and smooth even at higher speeds. Braking performance and suspension are also good for most road conditions. But the biggest downside for me is the city mileage. In city I am getting around 28 to 32 kmpl, which is lower than expected for a 160cc bike. If someone wants good performance, sporty design, great handling and modern features, the Apache RTR 160 4V TFT USD is a very good choice. However mileage is the only reason I hesitate to recommend it to everyone. Competitors like Pulsar N160 give better mileage in city conditions. So if mileage is your main priority you may consider other options, but apart from that the bike is really enjoyable to ride.
3 - A Perfect Balance of Power and Style.
I chose the Apache RTR 160 Limited Edition for its sporty performance, sharp handling, unique limited-edition looks, good mileage, and reliable TVS build, making it perfect for daily use with a premium feel. Apache RTR 160 Limited Edition so far is smooth and fun it feels responsive with good pickup, confident in city traffic, and stable at higher speeds. The handling is sharp and the overall ride quality is comfortable for daily commuting as well as weekend rides. I would recommend the Apache rtr 160 Limited Edition if you are looking for a bike that fun to ride, reliable, good on mileage, and turns heads with its sporty looks. It is a great all round choice for both daily commuting and weekend rides.
2 1 - Apache RTR review
According to online review it's the best bike in the segment. I reviewed other bikes in the segment and everybody has their pros and cons but this is the overall best friend and it has been running on the roads were years that's why. Very punchy and comfortable. It's very manuvareble in traffic and the blood through technology is very helpful in the driving also when it comes to I wait as a very good performance. Mileage is pretty good. Yes to anyone in this segment. Even even has an interesting 160 CC segment this is the best way to go for according to me as it as too much features for the price range and it is very much good for this age group.
