The day that enthusiasts have been waiting for ever since the TVS Apache RTX 300 was first caught on camera at the Auto Expo 2025 is finally here. TVS Motor Company is all set to launch its first adventure motorcycle in the Indian market today, October 15, 2025.
The Apache RTX 300 will be the company’s first motorcycle to use the all-new RT-XD4 engine platform, which made its debut at the 2024 TVS MotoSoul event. TVS says that this engine has been developed in-house at the company’s R&D facility in Hosur, Tamil Nadu.
Powering the Apache RTX 300 is the all-new 299 cc, liquid-cooled, DOHC, 4-valve single-cylinder engine, tuned to produce 34.5 bhp at 9000 rpm and 28.5 Nm of peak torque at 7000 rpm.
It comes paired with a six-speed gearbox equipped with a slip and assist clutch.

From the images seen earlier, the Apache RTX 300 appears to be designed with a touring-first approach, meaning it’s more of a long-distance adventure tourer rather than a hardcore off-roader.
Patent images reveal quite a few details, from the trellis frame with a bolt-on rear subframe, along with an upside-down fork and rear monoshock.
TVS Motor Company kicks off the event by throwing some light on its journey so far.
