Along with retro elements like a circular headlight and off-set instrument cluster, there are modern bits like LED-lighting and an LCD console.

It is powered by a new 225.9cc engine that makes 20.5PS and 19.93Nm. We found the motor to be a torquey one, making city riding effortless.

Its funky-looking instrument cluster is packed with information and also connects to your mobile via the TVS SmartXonnect app. It also has voice assistance for navigation on the go.
Prices for the TVS Ronin start at Rs 1.49 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi), offering a great VFM along with feeling like a well-rounded motorcycle. Our only issue with the bike is its confused design.
