TVS Ronin

TVS Ronin: Overview

The TVS Ronin is a neo-retro motorcycle positioned as a unique blend of cruiser, scrambler, and roadster characteristics, offering a relaxed riding posture and everyday practicality. First launched in 2022, the Ronin marked TVS Motor’s entry into a new design language and market segment.

For 2025, the Ronin has received a model year update that brings key feature upgrades and new colour options. While the engine and chassis remain mechanically unchanged, the most notable enhancement is the wider availability of dual-channel ABS, now extended to the mid-spec variant.

The 2025 update also introduces two new paint schemes—Glacier Silver and Charcoal Ember—replacing older colours. Designed for city use and light touring, the TVS Ronin stands out in the 200–300 cc class with its versatile design, connectivity features, and refined ride dynamics.
