Variant Recommendation

author

The TVS Apache RTR 160 4V is available in 7 variants, ranging from Rs 1.24 lakh to Rs 1.40 lakh ex-showroom. The newly launched variant, Dual Channel ABS with USD, is the most expensive but elevates the riding experience completely, with a gold-finished 37 mm USD front suspension. However, we believe the most value-for-money variant of this bike is the BT Disc, where both wheels get disc brakes, and the front one also gets ABS support. Additionally, Bluetooth connectivity is also included, allowing the rider to enjoy the benefits of connected features on this bike. Lastly, its asking price is also justified.

Pros & Cons of TVS Apache RTR 160 4V

  • What we admire in this bike

    • Smooth & fast engine performance
    • Loaded with the latest connected features
    • Braking performance is good
    • Easy handling for city use
    • TVS has a widespread service network
  • What could have been better

    • Sporty riding position is not meant for everyone
    • No option for split seats
    • Special edition is pricey

Should I buy the Apache RTR 160 4V?

The TVS Apache RTR 160 4V is the updated version of the old RTR 160 bike. It is more sporty and aggressive to sit & ride. Also, TVS has tuned its engine for fast performance which is majorly liked by young buyers. TVS also offers it in multiple variants at a range of pricing. The RTR 160 4V is the top choice for a fast 160cc bike. It offers advanced features like riding modes and Bluetooth connectivity. Competitors like the Bajaj Pulsar N160 offer similar excitement at a lower price. The special edition of this motorcycle costs more.

Design, Quality, & Comfort 9
  • The styling, outlook, & design aesthetics of the Apache RTR 160 4V are very good. It looks beautiful from each angle and the road presence is also better than its rivals. The beautiful color options and graphics give it a proportionate and handsome design.
  • TVS has been known for using the best quality fitment on its products. The Apache RTR 160 4V is no different case either. The plastic used on the bike is of rich quality and there are no panel gaps or inconsistent quality issues anywhere on the bike. The fit and finish of the bike is the best in the segment. 
  • In terms of comfort, rivals like Hero Xtreme 160R 4V offer more. It is because the Apache doesn’t get an option of split seats. Also, the single seat is not very cushioning. Additionally, the front set handlebar with rear set footpegs for the rider make it a sport bike to ride. Therefore, long-distance riding becomes tiring on it.

    The recently launched Hero Xtreme 160R 4V is also a good option for the RTR 160 4V. The new Xtreme gets a sporty design along with comfortable split seats, a refined engine, & loads of features. However, the top-end performance of the Xtreme is not as fast as the Apache. On the other hand, the Apache offers a beautiful-looking design along with a better road presence. Out of the two, we recommend buying the Apache RTR 160 4V due to its better build quality & top-end performance.
