The TVS Apache RTR 200 4V is one of the best motorcycles available in the segment at the moment. Known for its peppy engine and striking looks, the 200cc Apache is also popular for its phenomenal braking performance. It comes equipped with a 270mm front petal disc and a 240mm rear petal disc along with a dual-channel ABS. Now, TVS has also launched the single-channel ABS version of the Apache RTR 200 4V.
TVS is advertising the new Apache RTR 200
4V as a model with Supermoto ABS as the safety feature works only for the front
wheel and the rear wheel can be deliberately locked to have some fun, let’s say
on a race track. The new TVS Apache RTR 200 4V with a single-channel ABS has
been priced at INR 1.23 lakh* which makes it INR 5000 less expensive than the
dual-channel ABS model which retails at INR 1.28 lakh*. As for the colours, we
continue to have the same Pearl White and Gloss Black options.
Apart from the single-channel ABS, no
other changes have been incorporated in the new TVS Apache RTR 200 4V. Features
such as the Glide Through Technology (segment’s first), TVS SmartXonnect, Rear
wheel Lift-off Protection, slipper clutch, radial rear tyre, ‘feather touch’
start, fully-digital instrument cluster, and an all-new LED headlamp with claw
styled LED DRLs can also be found in the new model.
The engine also remains the same 197.75cc
single-cylinder, oil-cooled unit which complies with the BS6 emission
standards. It comes equipped with the company’s RT-Fi technology for enhanced
performance and improved fuel economy. TVS has calibrated this engine to churn
out 20.5 PS of power at 8,500 rpm and 16.8 Nm of torque at 7,500 rpm.
