TVS Apache RR 310 — Overview
At Rs 2,62,271, the TVS Apache RR 310 packs more electronics into a 310cc sports motorcycle than most manufacturers charge Rs 6-8 lakh for - we're talking launch control, cornering ABS, TFT with Bluetooth connectivity, multiple riding modes, and an optional bi-directional quickshifter. It's also the only sub-Rs 3 lakh fully-faired bike in India built on a platform co-developed with BMW Motorrad.
The 2025 update raised the stakes further: aerodynamic winglets generating 3 kg of real downforce at speed, a reworked engine producing 38 PS in Sport and Track modes, new 8-spoke alloy wheels, and Michelin Road 5 tyres as standard - rubber that normally lives on bikes costing three times as much.
Priced Rs 40,000-60,000 below the KTM RC 390 and significantly more feature-laden than the BMW G 310 RR, the RR 310 has a genuinely compelling value argument. The 312.2cc liquid-cooled engine delivers 37.54 bhp and 29 Nm, a 810 mm seat height most Indian riders can manage, and ARAI-certified mileage of 34.7 kmpl. Owners report 30-34 kmpl in real-world mix.
It's not without trade-offs - the NVH at high revs is the most consistent owner complaint, and the pillion seat is comically small. But for a solo rider who wants a full-fairing sports machine that handles Mumbai traffic on weekdays and a weekend track day with equal capability, nothing else at this price comes close.
TVS Apache RR 310 Latest Updates
View allTVS Racing has completed selections for the 2026 PETRONAS TVS One Make Championship, with the Apache RR 310 category final trials held at the Madras International Circuit on May 17, 2026. The championship is open to racers under 30 with at least one podium in a national or one-make championship.
A camouflaged TVS Apache RR 450 prototype was spotted testing in India, featuring a 420cc parallel-twin liquid-cooled engine producing approximately 48 PS and 43.5 Nm. The bike is expected to be showcased at EICMA 2026 with an India launch and estimated ex-showroom price around Rs 4.20 lakh.
TVS Motor Company launched the naked Apache RTR 310 at Rs 2,39,990 ex-showroom, sharing the RR 310's 312.2cc BMW co-developed engine and platform in a streetfighter body without the full fairing. The RTR 310 expands the 310cc Apache family and positions itself Rs 22,281 below the RR 310 base variant.
What We Like
- Aspirational full-fairing styling with aerodynamic winglets and transparent clutch cover - the most visually striking 310cc bike in India
- Extraordinary feature set for the price: TFT display with Bluetooth, launch control, cornering ABS, traction control, and bi-directional quickshifter
- Strong acceleration - 0 to 60 kmph in 2.93 seconds - with confidence-inspiring cornering stability and adjustable suspension
- Best value in the segment: significantly cheaper than KTM RC 390 and BMW G 310 RR while matching or exceeding both on features
What Could Be Better
- Noticeable NVH and vibrations above 6,000 rpm creep through footpegs and handlebars - the most frequent owner complaint across long rides
- Pillion seat is effectively a styling ledge - uncomfortable for anything beyond 20 minutes; unsuitable for regular two-up riding
- Footpegs ground early at high lean angles, limiting cornering confidence on twisty roads
Editor's Verdict
Should You Buy the TVS Apache RR 310?
The TVS Apache RR 310 is the most technologically ambitious 310cc motorcycle you can buy in India - a BMW co-developed platform loaded with electronics that embarrasses bikes at twice the price. It rewards riders who push it: the cornering stability, quickshifter, and launch control make it genuinely track-capable. For a solo rider who wants a full-fairing sports machine under Rs 3.5 lakh, nothing else in India makes a stronger case.
