Top 5 Bikes Under Rs 2 Lakh Featuring Navigation Systems

These days, bikes aren’t just judged by how fast they go or how sharp they look; practicality and safety are also top priorities. The console, for instance, that little screen you glance at every few minutes or so, is starting to steal the spotlight. 

Turn-by-turn navigation, Bluetooth, voice assist, you name it. Features that were once only found on premium motorcycles are now showing up on bikes you can buy without selling an arm or a leg. If you’ve been hunting for a ride under ?2 lakh that helps you find your way without fiddling with your phone, here are five that nail the brief.

TVS Raider 125:  Rs 94,500 (ex-showroom, Delhi)

TVS has flipped the idea of an ideal, humble commuter with the Raider 125. This bike comes loaded with an LCD console on the base models and a premium five-inch TFT console on the top-spec variant that could put some much bigger machines to shame. It doesn’t just display your speed and fuel gauge, it pairs with your phone to offer turn-by-turn navigation, call and message alerts, sports and weather updates, and if that wasn’t enough, even voice assistance. 

In short, it makes Monday-morning commutes feel like you’re riding something far pricier. The 124.8cc engine isn’t just about frugality either. With around 11.4PS on tap and torque that climbs to 11.75Nm in boost mode via TVS iGO assist, it feels peppy in the city and doesn’t complain if you give it a little stick on the highway. Light, efficient, and surprisingly feature-rich, the Raider shows that you don’t need a big budget for a smart bike.

TVS Ronin:  Rs 1,59,390 (ex-showroom, Delhi)

The Ronin doesn’t just address one niche. It’s part retro roadster, part urban cruiser, and fully geared for the connected generation. The off-centre digital cluster looks a bit quirky at first, but the moment you ride the top TD or Special Edition trims, you realise it’s more than a gimmick. You can pair your phone with the console to unlock voice assist, call and text notifications, ride analytics, and turn-by-turn navigation that comes in handy when you’re venturing beyond familiar routes. 

The 225.9cc engine is another sweet spot with 20.4PS on tap and a chunky 19.9Nm of torque available at low revs, making it relaxed in traffic and enjoyable on weekend getaways. Throw in the upside-down fork, a slipper clutch, and dual-channel ABS, and the Ronin feels like a bike built for riders who want a bike that stands out without compromising on everyday usability.

Bajaj Pulsar N160:  Rs 1,26,290 (ex-showroom, Delhi)

Bajaj’s Pulsar badge has been the go-to for riders chasing affordable performance, and the N160 carries that torch forward with a modern twist. All variants get a digital console, but the top-spec trim takes it up a notch with turn-by-turn navigation. You also get call and message alerts, ABS modes, and even a useful battery level indicator as part of the package. It’s clean, functional, and just what you need when you don’t want to keep pulling your phone out of your pocket. 

The bike’s 164.8cc engine, with 16PS and 14.65Nm, hits a nice middle ground. It’s quick enough to keep things exciting, yet friendly enough for daily commutes. Bajaj has tuned the mid-range to make overtakes easy, while the chassis and dual discs give you confidence when you push it a bit hard. For riders who want that classic Pulsar thrill with a dash of smart tech, the N160 gets the mix just right.

TVS Apache RTR 160 4V:  Rs 1,35,840 (ex-showroom, Delhi)

If there’s one bike in this list that wears its performance genes on its sleeve with pride, it’s the Apache RTR 160 4V. The top-spec TFT variant takes things a step further by adding a five-inch connected display that feels straight out of a bigger, sportier machine. Beyond the sharp graphics, it brings in turn-by-turn navigation, ride telemetry, crash alert, voice assist, and smartphone pairing for call and message alerts. It’s the kind of console you’ll want to show off at every signal. 

And when the light turns green, the 159.7cc, four-valve motor, dishing out 17.5PS in sport mode, makes sure you’re ahead of the crowd. With three riding modes (Sport, Urban, Rain), dual-channel ABS, and agile handling, the Apache is more than just a smart commuter. It’s meant for riders who want a bike that feels alive, while still offering modern features.

Royal Enfield Hunter 350:  Rs 1,62,292 (Ex-showroom, Chennai)

Royal Enfield’s Hunter 350 shows that old-school charm and modern convenience can ride side by side. The mid and top variants may differ only in paint schemes and price, but feature-wise they’re evenly matched. Both variants pack full LED lighting, a USB Type-C fast-charging port, and the Tripper navigation pod as standard. The Tripper unit is a compact digital screen neatly tucked next to the analogue speedometer, linked to Google Maps to give you clear turn-by-turn directions. It’s simple, intuitive, and blends in without spoiling the bike’s retro vibe. The catch is that the Tripper unit is limited to navigation and doesn’t show anything beyond that.

Nonetheless, powering it all is the familiar 349cc J-series engine with 20.2PS and 27Nm of torque. It’s not built for outright speed, but the torque-rich character makes city rides easy and highway runs relaxed. Add in a low 790mm seat, dual-channel ABS, and friendly ergonomics, and the Hunter becomes one of the most approachable Royal Enfields around. For riders who want classic RE style with just the right dose of modern tech, the Hunter 350 ticks all the right boxes.

Smart consoles with navigation aren’t gimmicks anymore – they’re features that make every ride safer, smoother, and more enjoyable. And the fact that you can now get them on bikes under Rs 2 lakh shows how far the segment and technology have come.
