Finally, TVS has officially launched the Apache RTR 160 4V. TVS offers 5 Apache models in India. TVS Apache RTR 160 is the lowest priced model at Rs. 78,715 (Ex-Showroom, Delhi) and New TVS Apache RR 310 is the highest priced model at Rs. 2.17 lakh (Ex-Showroom, Delhi). TVS borrowed the technological prowess from their racing motorcycles and watered them down to their production models. As a result, the Apache was born. The Apache became TVS answer to the popular Pulsar series from Bajaj. The Apache RTR 180 is the first and the cheapest bike with ABS available in India. The RTR 200 4V is powered by an oil-cooled engine coupled with a five-speed transmission. Top cycle parts like synchronized stiff chassis, petal brakes, functional aerodynamic cowl used in the Apache ensures maximum performance.
The new Apache RTR 180 carries the same hooligan character of the old Apache RTR 160, but makes it more tractable for the street without losing its track focus. Varad More straddles it to find out if it has the go to match its show

Which RTR is better in the following aspects mileage, sporty looking, performance and other necessary elements RTR 200 4v or RTR 160 4v?

Both looks identical, with differences like 200 Race edition graphics, no kick start in 200, but almost 40cc more than its younger sibling, which means a little lower milage but more power and pickup.

Q.
I m looking for a good bike for daily commuting and with decent power as well as for long distance if needed. Is Apache RTR 160 4V fi is good for long term?
A.
If a bike has to survive in the cut-throat 160cc two-wheeler segment, it needs to be competitively priced and pack enough performance to keep riders happy. Thankfully, the Apache RTR 160 4V delivers well on both fronts with class leading features at its price. However, it doesn’t feel as confident under hard braking as the Bajaj Pulsar NS 160 or the Honda Hornet. That said, the Apache RTR 160 4V is not only the most refined RTR we have ridden till date but also one of the most refined 160cc motorcycles to be ever produced in India.Read More: - - TVS Apache RTR 160 4V Carb: 3,900km Long Term Report: https://www.zigwheels.com/reviews-advice/reviews/tvs-apache-rtr-160-4v-carb-3900km-long-term-report/32762/...read more
