The Apache RTR 160 not only goes through a complete transformation but leaves subtlety behind, going all out to usurp the 160cc segment crown

- 

The entry-level sports segment still sees the maximum competition among manufacturers. Here is a segment that mercilessly demands power, styling, premium features, top-notch handling and still be relatively fuel efficient. If any of these factors are compromised, the manufacturer will see the customer knock on the next door.

For TVS, the current RTR 160, despite timely upgrades, was barely cutting it. The edgy design had been aging and the competition has been inching forward, trying to make mini-versions of their super-nakeds.
