The TVS Apache RTR 200 4V, which features an athletic body style with chiselled edges, is expected to come with split seats, clip-on handle bar, W-shaped grab rail, LED tail lights, engine cowl and alloy wheels.
While the braking will be taken care of by 270mm disc at front and 200mm disc at rear, Apache RTR 200 4V will employ telescopic front suspension and mono-suspension with gas-filled shocks at rear. The tyres are TVS SriChakra of sizes 90/90 R17 at the front and 130/70 R17 at the rear and ABS is also expected.
Expected to be offered in six colours -- black, grey, red, matte black, white and yellow -- the new Apache is expected to be pegged at a price point of Rs 95,000 and will rival models like KTM 200 Duke in the Indian market.
