We have received confirmed news that the TVS Akula 310, also known by its production name: TVS Apache RR310S, will be launching on the 6th of December. The Akula 310 will be the first bike for India to come out of the TVS and BMW partnership. Till now we have been privy to the prototype that was displayed at the 2016 Auto Expo and a lot of spy pics but come next month, we shall have a complete picture of what the bike looks like.
The Apache RR310S borrows mechanicals from the BMW G 310 R. The 313cc, liquid cooled, fuel injected, single-cylinder motor on the BMW G 310 R generates 34PS of power at 9500rpm and 28Nm of torque at 7500rpm. While TVS has not disclosed power figures we expect the bike to be in the same state of tune as the G 310 R.
The Apache RR310S dons a sporty and sharp design and is the first fully faired road bike to come out of the TVS stable. It gets twin headlamps, a tall windscreen, an aluminium trellis subframe and an exposed monoshock at the rear. For instrumentation, there is a fully digital console.
Suspension components include gold anodised upside down forks at the front and a monoshock unit at the rear. For braking, petal disc brakes sit on both ends and ABS could very well be available as an option.The alloy wheels and the exhaust on the bike looks like they have been lifted off from the BMW G 310 R. The tyres are expected to be from Michelin.
The Apache RR310S has been late by almost a year. Now that it is finally coming, we are expecting it to cost around Rs 2 -2.5 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi). When launched, the bike will compete against the KTM RC 390, Kawasaki Ninja 300 and the DSK Benelli 302R.

TVS Apache RR 310 is a fantastic bike for city and highway both. I have used it for 2 years and the performance is superb. The riding posture is sporty but not too aggressive for daily use. Mileage is around 28-30 kmpl in city and 35 on highway which is good for a 310cc. TVS service cost is reasonable compared to KTM or BMW. Parts are easily available in Pune. Features like glide through technology, ride modes and digital console are very useful. Only issue is pillion seat is not comfortable for long rides. Overall build quality and handling is excellent. Highly recommended for beginners who want a sports bike feel. Best bike in this segment under 3 lakhs.Read More
