    Make : TVS
    Model : Phoenix

    The Phoenix is a serious shot from the Hosur based TVS Motor Company, aiming at nailing a bulls-eye in the keenly contested and key 125cc motorcycle segment. There are several strong players in the Indian 125 space, and the South Indian bike maker has been forced to work really hard to penetrate this space, with only moderate success to date. TVS’s previous Flame 125 model was never a big hit with us, and more importantly, never did make any significant dent in the Indian market. Better late than never though, now still makes a good time for the Phoenix to make good and set TVS’s sales charts afire. The Phoenix offers some first-in-class features, a refined engine and it sits astride innovative suspension. All of which still doesn’t answer the question everyone is waiting to hear.

    Does the Phoenix have enough grit to cement TVS’s feet firmly in the 125cc segment, and offer you a good 125 motorcycle, one that is able to rise above its many able rivals?
