The TVS Apache motorcycle series in India, introduced in 2006 with the Apache RTR 160, quickly gained popularity among young riders for its sporty design and performance. TVS continued to expand the lineup with models like the Apache RTR 180 and the Apache RTR 160 4V, which featured advanced engine technology.
