TVS Apache RR 310 — Overview

The TVS Apache RR 310 is a sports bike available at a price range of Rs. 2,61,281 - Rs. 3,14,433 in India. It comes in 4 variants and 4 colours. It is powered by a 312.2 cc BS6 Phase 2B engine and has a user reported mileage of 32 kmpl. With both front and rear disc brakes, the TVS Apache RR 310 comes with anti-locking braking system. The Apache RR 310 bike weighs 174 kg and has a fuel tank capacity of 11 liters. It develops a power output of 37.48 bhp and a torque of 29 Nm.

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 all
  • TVS 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.

Frequently Asked Questions

QWhat is the ex-showroom price of TVS Apache RR 310 in Delhi?
The TVS Apache RR 310 starts at Rs 2,62,271 ex-showroom in Delhi for the base Red (Without Quickshifter) variant. The top Anniversary Special Edition is priced at Rs 3,15,423. The on-road price in Delhi for the base variant works out to approximately Rs 3,06,495 including RTO, first-year insurance, and handling charges.
QWhat is the real-world mileage of TVS Apache RR 310?
The TVS Apache RR 310 has an ARAI-certified mileage of 34.7 kmpl. In real-world mixed riding, owners consistently report 30-34 kmpl, with city-only use pulling it to 28-30 kmpl due to frequent throttle inputs in traffic. Highway riding at a steady 80-100 kmph typically returns 33-36 kmpl.
QDoes TVS Apache RR 310 have a quickshifter?
Yes - the TVS Apache RR 310 is available with a bi-directional quickshifter on two of its four variants: the Red (With Quickshifter) at Rs 2,78,265 and the Anniversary Special Edition at Rs 3,15,423. The quickshifter enables clutchless upshifts and downshifts with auto-blip on downshifts. The base Red and Bomber Grey variants are available without the quickshifter.
QIs TVS Apache RR 310 good for daily commuting in Indian cities?
The RR 310 can handle daily commuting - its 34.7 kmpl ARAI mileage is decent for a 312cc sports bike and the 810 mm seat height is manageable in traffic. However, the aggressive riding position and stiff sport-tuned suspension make long sessions in stop-go traffic tiring over time. NVH at low speeds adds to fatigue. Most owners use it for commuting-plus-weekend riding rather than pure daily duty.
QWhat is the seat height of TVS Apache RR 310?
The TVS Apache RR 310 has a seat height of 810 mm. Riders around 5'4" - 5'6" can reach the ground with a slight tiptoe on one foot - typical for a sports bike of this class. Riders 5'7" and above will find ground reach comfortable. The seat is firm and shaped for spirited riding but can feel hard on highway stints beyond 200 km.
QWhat is the EMI for TVS Apache RR 310 base variant?
On a 3-year loan with 20% down payment at 10.5% interest, the TVS Apache RR 310 base variant EMI works out to approximately Rs 8,000-8,500 per month. At a lower promotional rate of 8%, EMI drops to approximately Rs 7,700-8,000. TVS dealerships work with HDFC Bank, Bajaj Finance, and Shriram Finance - compare rates from at least two lenders before finalising.
QHow does TVS Apache RR 310 compare to KTM RC 390?
The TVS Apache RR 310 (from Rs 2,62,271) is priced Rs 60,000-70,000 below the KTM RC 390 (from Rs 3,23,497). The RR 310 has a richer electronics package - launch control, cornering ABS, cruise control, and TFT with Bluetooth - while the RC 390 has a more powerful engine and sharper chassis tuning. The RC 390 is the better track tool; the RR 310 is the better all-rounder value proposition.
QWhat is the top speed of TVS Apache RR 310?
The TVS Apache RR 310 has a claimed top speed of approximately 160 kmph. In real-world conditions on open highways, owners report comfortable sustained cruising at 120-130 kmph with headroom remaining. The 0-60 kmph sprint takes 2.93 seconds - strong for a 312cc single-cylinder motorcycle.
