      It is a single-cylinder, 177.4cc engine with remarkable performance numbers. The engine has state-of-the-art features like the Ram-Air Assist (Roto Petal Disc) induction system and the TVS Racing-inspired O3C (Oil-Cooled Combustion Chamber).

      Its robust and powerful style befits its athletic character. It has a contoured fuel tank, aerodynamic body panels, and a sharp front fascia.
