TVS Apache RTX 300 ADV design patent filed in India

The Apache RTX 300 will be powered by TVS’ new RT-XD4 engine.

TVS has filed a design patent for its upcoming adventure touring bike. The new model is expected to be called the Apache RTX 300.

The patent image reveals a road-biased ADV that looks like a typical touring bike. It has a tall windscreen, a two-piece stepped seat with provision for mounting a top box, and wide handlebars that should offer an upright riding position.

The new Apache RTX 300 appears to have a tubular chassis with an upside-down fork in the front and a mono-shock in the rear. The patent also reveals some sort of impact protection for the engine and exhaust. 

The Apache RTX 300 will be powered by TVS’ new RT-XD4 engine. This 299cc single-cylinder unit is rated at 34.5 BHP @ 9,000 rpm and 28.5 Nm @ 7,000 rpm. It will be paired with a 6-speed gearbox via a slipper clutch.
