The brief showcase of the Apache Rtx 300 ADV, at the Bharat Mobility expo brought the adventure bike enthusiasts to a frenzy. The bike was soon taken off the stage. TVS since then has not revealed any details about the possible launch of the new bike. The recent revelation of the patent images of the bike indicates a imminent possible launch of the new bike. The Bike would compete with the likes of established bikes such as Expulse 421, and other adventure bikes.
TVS Apache RTX 300 ADV
This would be the first offering from TVS that would venture into the adventure world. The ADV 300 would be the brand’s only product in the whole segment. TVS has seemingly gone for the Adventure Tourer design format instead of a hardcore off roader similar to that of the Himalayan raid and other bikes that are yet to be launched in India as well.
The Bike as per its patent images looks large and ready to take the riders off road. The front facia of the bike seems high set with led lights that seem similar to that of the Triumph Tiger older models. There had been reports about how TVS was probably reluctant about the launch of the new bike as they took it off the showcase at the expo, but with the patent images it has become apparent that the bike would be launched soon in the Indian market.
Performance And Engine Specs
The Adventure Bike would be powered by a 299cc liquid cooled RTCd4 engine that produces about 35 BHP at a peak RPM of 9,000 rpm. Beyond that the new bike would have a peak torque of around 28.5 NM at 7,000 Rpm. The New Adventure Apache would be paired to a six-speed gearbox. The bike would have multiple riding modes and traction control system. The Presence of switchable ABS that would allow it to be readily ridden over the off road terrain’s.
The bike looks quite menacing and aggressive as a adventure of roader. The Bike would have a semi fairing with a tall windscreen, a muscular tank as well as a tail section with the presence of split seats.

The Adventure 390 has been the unprecedented king of the segment for a long period. Although its one of the most expensive bikes in the segment it has become the go to choice for many. Would the new RTX adventure be able to de throne the KTM? As per the Rumours it has become apparent that the new bike would be a little underpowered than the KTM, beyond that the bikes prowess would become much more clear once the bike launches in the market. Being cheaper than that of the KTM’s Adventure bikes the new RTX could be the possible new choice for the many new riders.
