BREAKING: TVS Rides In New SmartXonnect Variant Of Raider In Metaverse
The newly launched variant comes packed with a number of geeky features over the standard one
2021 – TVS launched the Raider, a capable, feature-packed 125cc bike with the promise of a connected variant in the near future. More than a year has gone by, and the Hosur-based bikemaker has finally launched the top-spec variant of the Raider, that too in the Metaverse.
It comes loaded with a tonne of tech-savvy connected features at an introductory price of Rs 99,990. For perspective, the disc brake equipped variant without the connectivity tech costs Rs 93,489 (both ex-showroom Delhi).
The million-dollar question – What does the new variant get? Well, more features! This new variant of the Raider comes with a five-inch fully digital TFT console with voice assist, instead of the reverse LCD cluster seen on the standard variant. Along with the new console, it also gets Bluetooth connectivity, turn-by-turn navigation along with auto navigation (to the nearest fuel station) in case of low fuel, weather updates, music control, call/message notifications and alerts, along with cricket and news updates.

Functionalities like Eco/Power riding modes (segment-first), real-time mileage indicator and reminders for service and low battery are retained from the standard model. The motor and hardware, too, stay the same as the disc variant of the raider.
While we do appreciate all the tech that the raider comes packed with, however, we would have really appreciated at least a single-channel ABS instead of cricket scores.
With the new features, the SmartXonnect variant is much more well-equipped to go up against its rivals – the Bajaj Pulsar NS 125, Honda SP125, Keeway SR125 and Hero Glamour Xtec.

- Good response from the customerI bough this TVS raider in Jan 2026. Till now, i did not face any issues with it. This costs around 1.25 Lakhs including EMI. This can be a good commuter bike in 125cc bike models. E20 facility is also added in this bike. Handling is very good in this bike. I feel so comfortable when i ride on highways. I like rear foot support to provide comfort for pillion rider while having seat. Good mileage bike under 125cc bikes. This is kind of family bike with sporty look. City riding people can prefer this mostly. This is a best mileage bike under 1.25Lakhs. i would recommend to change the colour of ABS channel(red colour) to black.Read More5 7

- TVS- RAIDERI choose raider because one of my friend suggested me to buy as this bike is good nice looks and good mileage. The solo seat version of the bike is very good looking like similar to pulsar and it feels very light weight to ride this bike. The ride with the TVS raider was amazing till now, no breaking points were given by this bike, still rides the same smooth and the sound of the filter of this bike is best. The disc provided is also good, breaks tyres, engines, every thing is very good. I would like to recommend this bike to everyone other because of its looks, smooth rides, pretty good disc, nice colours, best engines, nice mileage and more than that the trust on TVS. They have been creating beats like this for very long now.Read More13 11
- My experience with TVS Raider.I wanted a bike with a decent mileage per litre because my work demands inter district commute. And after extensive search I found Raider. I wanted a bike that wasn't too boring for a mileage centred bike and this was my fair bet. Overall ride experience is satisfactory. Braking is bit off, that can be improved but if you're going in a decent speed, it shouldn't be a concern for you but if you're in a rush, it sure will affect you in one way or the other. But didn't have any bad experience till this day. Yeah, I'd recommend this bike but its safe, if you give it a test drive and make sure it's suited according to your needs. You should not feel bad after making the purchase in my opinion. But its a solid choice according to me.Read More40 32
