TVS Apache RTX: Mileage

The TVS Apache RTX is powered by a 299 cc single-cylinder engine designed for efficiency and reliability, especially in long-distance touring scenarios. TVS has not officially disclosed certified mileage figures, but the liquid-cooled, single-cylinder powertrain with ethanol-fuel compatibility is engineered to offer competitive fuel efficiency within the sub-300 cc adventure motorcycle segment.

TVS Apache RTX: Specs & Features

The Apache RTX is powered by the new RT-XD4 engine, a 299 cc, water/oil-cooled single-cylinder unit producing 35 bhp at 9,000 rpm and 28.5 Nm of peak torque at 7,000 rpm. The engine is paired with a six-speed gearbox and incorporates a wet, multi-plate slipper clutch for smoother off-road and highway performance. Four riding modes—Tour, Rally, Urban, and Rain—enable riders to optimise the throttle response and traction control for varied conditions.

Chassis and suspension have been engineered for adventure touring, featuring a purpose-built steel trellis frame with die-cast aluminium swingarm. The RTX offers an 835 mm seat height with long-travel 41 mm WP inverted forks at the front and a mono-tube rear shock with floating piston. Suspension travel measures 180 mm front and rear, complemented by 200 mm ground clearance and a kerb weight of 180 kg.

Braking duties are handled by a 320 mm front disc with a fixed caliper and a 240 mm rear disc with floating caliper, with terrain-adaptive dual-channel ABS. The motorcycle rides on 19-inch front and 17-inch rear alloy wheels fitted with 110/80 and 150/70 tyres, respectively. Safety and convenience features include a ride-by-wire throttle, traction control, wheelie mitigation, cruise control, and a Bluetooth-enabled 5-inch TFT display with media controls and map mirroring for navigation.
