TVS Apache RTX 300 Features Explained: LOTS Of Segment First Goodies!
The amount of features offered for its price is just insane
The TVS Apache RTX 300 is one of the most feature-packed bikes in its class, with tech usually seen on larger, more expensive machines. Here’s a quick look at everything it offers, clearly explained:
TFT Console
Like the TVS Ntorq 150, RTR 310, top variants of RTR 160 4V and 200 – the just launched TVS Apache RTX 300 gets a 5-inch TFT console. Along with basics like speed, odometer, tachometer and fuel level, it also shows distance-to-empty, it has a top speed and 0-60 kmph recorder as well. It supports SmartXonnect (TVS’ bluetooth smartphone connectivity suite) which enables phone alerts, GoPro action camera control, ride analytics, service reminders, and digital document storage. The Top and BTO variants also get a full map on the screen for navigation. It essentially mirrors the navigation screen on the phone, so you don’t have to mount the phone on the handlebar.
Quickshifter, Cruise Control And Wheelie Control
The TVS Apache RTX 300 includes cruise control (the system holds a set speed), making highway rides more relaxed. On the other hand, wheelie control prevents front-wheel lift during hard acceleration. This TVS bike’s bi-directional quickshifter allows clutchless upshifts and downshifts, adding to the convenience factor.
Riding Modes, ABS, And TC
This TVS Apache bike offers 4 riding modes: Urban, Rain, Tour, and Rally. Each has a different throttle response, traction control, and ABS sensitivity. ABS also has 3 levels (Urban, Rain, Rally) and you can turn off rear ABS for better off-road control. The Rain mode has the highest level of ABS intervention whereas Urban mode is balanced, while Rally has the least amount of intervention. Meanwhile, traction control has 2 levels (Urban and Rally). It limits rear-wheel slip – especially on wet or loose surfaces.
Tyre Pressure Monitoring System
The Apache RTX’s BTO variant (more about all the other RTX 300 variants here) also offers TPMS (Tyre Pressure Monitoring System), which shows real-time tyre pressure (both wheels) on the console - a small but practical addition.
Full-LED Lighting With Adaptive Headlight
The TVS RTX 300 gets all-LED lighting. On the Top and BTO variants, the headlight has a welcome light up sequence, and adaptive brightness that automatically increases as the speed rises.
Convenience And Comfort
On the BTO variant, the 41mm inverted fork gets rebound and compression adjustability, while the monoshock is pre-load adjustable. This helps the rider to set up the suspension depending on their weight and also as per the terrain. Even the brake and clutch levers are adjustable so that riders of different hand sizes can be comfortable operating the levers. There’s also a standard USB and USB type-C charging port near the switchgear (shared with the TVS Apache RTR 310 and RR 310) on the left side of the handlebar.

TVS Apache RTX 300 User Reviews
- One of the best above 300 cc bike you can have.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 More3 5
- super adventure bike in this price and look are very very attractiveI 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 More4 1

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 More9 5
- Apache RTX, a powerful and affordable machineAffordable 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.Read More6 8
- The best value for money AdventurerI was looking for a bike which just fits right in my pocket and offers great features. And then just got the news of this Adventure bike from TVS. 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 More9 8
