Engine Performance
The RTR 160 2V model is equipped with a 159.7 cc single-cylinder engine that utilises air cooling technology. This engine, combined with the selectable riding modes—Rain, Urban, and Sport, offers varying power and torque outputs.
In Rain and Urban modes, the power output is capped at 13.14 bhp at 8,000 rpm, while in Sport mode, it escalates to 15.82 bhp. A similar pattern is observed in torque delivery, with lower figures in Rain and Urban modes. The top speed in Rain and Urban mode is slightly restricted at 97 kmph.

Just like its 2V counterpart, the 4V variant also offers three selectable riding modes, ensuring a personalised riding experience for enthusiasts.

The key highlight of these special editions is their sleek black finish, featuring a prominently displayed black TVS Apache stallion logo on the tank and a fully blacked-out exhaust. Despite the new colour scheme, both the RTR 160 and RTR 160 4V retain their existing features, including three riding modes, the TVS SmartXonnect system with voice assist, and an efficient LED headlight setup.
