Armed with ABS (Anti-locking Braking System), TVS Motor Company's new offering the Apache RTR 180 ABS will retail at Rs. 78,880 (ex-showroom Delhi).

Launched for the first time in the country, TVS has introduced Anti-lock Braking System on its flagship product, the Apache RTR 180.  The company has given its premium segment offering formidable stopping power with ABS technology which significantly improves braking and is a prominent safety measure often found on all modern-day cars.



Jointly developed by TVS along with Continental Corporation, the ABS system prevents the brakes from locking under emergency situations and at the same time improves overall braking performance by reducing stopping distance and time in all weather conditions like dry or wet, thus helping in improving the overall safety of the rider. With the ABS technology, an average rider will have 10-25 per cent quicker stopping distance on dry roads and 20-30 per cent on wet roads. Whereas, the professionals will be able to achieve 16 percent quicker stopping distance on wet roads.

"With this new, compact motorcycle ABS which has been developed by Continental's Chassis and Safety Division in collaboration with TVS, we have further strengthened our presence in the Indian Automotive industry," said Murali Srinivasan, General Manager, Chassis and safety division, Continental. With maximum power of 17bhp @ 8500rpm, the Apache churns out 15.5Nm of torque at 6500 rpm and delivers upto 44-45 kmpl of mileage. Available only in glittering white colour and tubeless tyres, the bike will be sold via select few dealerships across the country.
