TVS has updated its flagship offering, the fully-faired Apache RR310. The sportbike is now priced from Rs 2.75 lakh, an increase of Rs 3,000 from its previous starting price. The variant line-up is now more complex, and a fully-specced RR310 will cost you upwards of Rs 3.25 lakh. This price hike is justified by several new features and updates, many of which have been carried over from the naked Apache RTR 310.
- Engine now makes 38hp and 29Nm
- Winglets added to bodywork
- New features include a suite of electronic rider aids
Across all versions of the new RR310, the engine is now slightly more potent than before, producing 38hp at 9,800rpm and 29Nm at 7,900rpm, up from the previous 34hp and 27.3Nm. This is due to several factors, including a 13 percent larger airbox, a higher compression ratio, a 10 percent lighter forged piston, and a larger diameter throttle body. Some of these changes have been carried over from its naked sibling, the Apache RTR 310.
Visually, you’ll be able to distinguish this updated RR310 by the winglets on its side fairings – TVS claims they produce up to 3kg of downforce. There’s also a neat-looking transparent clutch cover on this new version. Finally, there is a new bomber grey colour scheme on offer, priced at Rs 2.97 lakh, making it Rs 5,000 more expensive than the red colour option with the quickshifter, which is priced at Rs 2.92 lakh.
