TVS Apache RTX 300 Makes Its European Debut in Italy

Indian two-wheeler giant TVS Motor Company is officially expanding its global footprint with the launch of its premium adventure motorcycle, the Apache RTX 300, in Italy. Making a entry into the European continent, the ADV bike is being offered in two variants with prices ranging from €4,890 to €5,290 (approximately Rs 5.43 lakh to Rs 5.88 lakh). The company plans to make the motorcycle available starting this November across 150 multi-brand showrooms throughout the country, aiming to disrupt the European mid-capacity segment with its aggressive pricing.

Designed to blend European ADV aesthetics with competitive Indian manufacturing, the Apache RTX 300 brings serious performance credentials to the table. At its heart is a 299.1cc liquid-cooled, single-cylinder engine that churns out 36 PS of maximum power and 28.5 Nm of peak torque. This capable engine is paired with a 6-speed gearbox equipped with a bi-directional quick-shifter and a slip-and-assist clutch, ensuring smooth gear transitions whether navigating urban Italian streets or exploring unpaved trails.

Beyond performance, the RTX 300 is heavily equipped for serious touring and off-road excursions. Built around a rugged steel trellis frame, it features adjustable suspension, 19-inch front and 17-inch rear alloy wheels wrapped in dual-purpose tubeless tires, and an impressive 200 mm of ground clearance. Riders will also benefit from a suite of top-tier technology, including a 5-inch full-color TFT instrument cluster with Google Maps mirroring, cruise control, traction control, multiple riding modes (Urban, Tour, Rally, Rain), and switchable rear-wheel ABS.
