TVS Motor Company has filed a design patent for its upcoming first ever adventure bike, the Apache RTX 300. The bike was showcased at Bharat Mobility Expo 2025. It has also been spotted testing multiple times in India before that.
Design
The TVS Apache RTX 300 features a muscular and road-biased ADV design. It has a tall windscreen, a split dual LED headlight setup. The minimalistic and slim rear tail section and LED taillight seem to have taken inspiration from the BMW G 310 GS.
Underpinnings
The RTX 300 is built on a trellis frame, gets long-travel suspension at both ends with an inverted fork and a monoshock - likely with pre-load adjustability. From the image, it looks like the bike has a 19-inch front and a 17-inch rear alloy wheel setup with tubeless tyres.
Engine
Powering the Apache RTX 300 is the newly developed 299cc, liquid-cooled, single-cylinder RT-XD4 engine that produces 35PS and 28.5Nm. It is paired to a six-speed gearbox with a slip-and-assist clutch. This motor was revealed last year at TVS MotoSoul 2024.
Features
The TVS Apache is expected to have a TFT instrument console with smartphone connectivity, turn-by-turn navigation, call and SMS alerts. It will also feature all-LED lighting. Other electronic rider aids expected include traction control, riding modes, cruise control, and switchable rear ABS for off-road riding.
Launch And Pricing
The RTX is expected to launch by mid-to-late 2025, with an estimated price between Rs 2.50 lakh to Rs 2.75 lakh (ex-showroom). Upon launch, it will compete with other adventure motorcycles such as the KTM 250 Adventure, the BMW G 310 GS, the Suzuki V-Strom SX, and the Yezdi Adventure.
BikeDekho Says
With a strong feature set, a big bulky design, a focus on touring and adventure riding, the upcoming bike could be a promising addition to TVS' lineup. However, while the patent filing confirms the design, an official launch announcement is still awaited.
TVS Apache RTX 300 User Reviews
For my inter state rides as I currently live in Ranchi but my home city is Chaibasa so I have to travel between these city a lot and this bike feels best when I ride for a longer distance. The major reason was the height of the bike, as I am 6.1 ft 24M, it is the best height bike for me. As I can feel that this bike is not for daily commuters as it is quite big for the Indian roads but the whole seen changes when you ride it on highways. I feel confident while riding this, one of my cousin have RE Himalayan and when compared to it, this bike feel more agile and is more practical. I would recommend this bike to only those who wants to have a best all rounder bike as it has best in the market technical specs, (even I have not fully explored all the modes of the bike thus far), it feels confident to ride on in many situations. And to top it all off, it has best engine as both BMW and TVS came together in this. Read More
I used BMW 310 gs before buy this bike but it beats the BMW 310 gs because of its features are fantastic. Relay involve this features, firstly, Its display and quick shifter. Most important is city ride, very comfortable no heating issues in city ride. The riding modes are fantastic. So this was the first time I rode a bike which had riding modes. Before this I thought features but work fantastically. The suspension is alright for the roads but it's not as comfortable as I thought. It's little stiff for an adventure bike. I didn't take it on proper off road but got the idea on city bumps. Bike is so manageable even for short riders. I'm just 5'8 and I was sceptical about whether to ride it or not and I was so surprised how well balanced this bike is. I can't even flat foot on my CB350RS and this one's has even taller seat yet I could manage it like any other bike. Weight distribution is good. Engine heating, It's freezing cold here in Delhi and yet I found it heating even riding on lower rpms.Read More
The looks are awesome also the features provided in this price is very greatful to have. And it is the most comfortable bike in this budget. The bike always gets people noticing and excited about the price. The ride is really nice and comforting. A rider can easily ride this bike a minimum of 100km or more without getting tired. The handling is great and the mileage is also great as per the torque you are getting. All over the bike is impressive. This bike is totally recommended. My friend is 5.6 he still rides my bike without any extra efforts. And I am 6.1 still I look good on the bike. The bike looks is aggressive and also it looks good on both the genders.Read More
Affordable pricing for an adventure bike. After reading your reviews I was interested in this bike so this was a great choice for me. Since Himalayan 450 price was increased after the recent tax hike, this was the perfect price point for me to get my first ADV Bike. Great Handling, easily manageable in rush hour traffic, great seating height as I am on the taller side. I have gone on multiple above 50 km rides on this bike and faced no issues so far. The riding modes are a big plus point in this bike. Yes I would definitely recommend this bike. Even if you are a experienced rider or a nice looking to get into the world of bike riding, the apache rtx 300 is a wonderful piece of machinery that has something for people of all experience levels.

TVS has been one my favourite brands considerably because it is made in India. The second reason is its look. wow. Who can offer such ergonomics at this price. It is incredible. Every ride feels exciting and adventurous even though I might be riding on the same route. It is comfortable for both the rider and pillion. I am just 5.8 feet and I am able to land my foot at ease. Absolutely, 10 on 10. A bike thats offer best Value for Money. Be it is riding modes, braking, suspension and those grippy tyres, these are absolutely loved by each of my friends. And who can ignore the power delivery ones it hit at that RPM.Read More
