Customised TVS Apache RR310 Knight Auto Customizer 8

Despite receiving a low response from the buyers the flagship TVS Apache RR 310 was able to beat its rivals by a fair margin

The first two months of the year 2019 were not exactly in favour of the motorcycles above the 150cc segment. The TVS Apache RR 310 too was one of the worst hit products as well. The Apache RR 310 registered 279 unit sales in March 2019. However, the good news is that the flagship TVS offering was able to beat its closest rival the Kawasaki Ninja 300 and the Yamaha YZF-R3 by a fair margin.

Kawasaki sold a total of 165 units of the Ninja 300 in March 2019. On the other hand, Yamaha sold just 42 units of the YZF-R3 during the same month. Although TVS has priced the Apache RR 310 quite aggressively in India and there is no doubt in the fact that the product has a lot of potentials.

However, TVS Motors is the third largest two-wheeler manufacturer in terms of sales figures should have kept the pricing of the Apache RR 310 under rupees two lakhs. That said, the Apache RR 310 is the most powerful and well-equipped motorcycle launched by TVS motors till date.
