TVS Motor Company has launched its new 125 cc motorcycle, the TVS Raider in the Latin America (LATAM) market. The new premium 125 cc motorcycle is built on a new platform and is already offered on sale in India and Nepal. The TVS Raider gets a mix of sporty and commuter in its looks. The design highlight is the new LED headlamp with the DRL that looks quirky. The model also gets the muscular-looking fuel tank with shrouds at the side and an engine guard. The Raider is available in a choice of four colours, Striking Red, Blazing Blue, Wicked Black and Fiery Yellow.
