The all-new TVS Apache ADV has been spotted in the wild for the first time. Based on the spy images, it is evident that the upcoming motorcycle has the potential to be a serious competitor to the likes of the KTM 390 Adventure and the Royal Enfield Himalayan. The Apache ADV is set to be a hugely tech-focused model for the brand, likely using TVS’s new 300cc RT-XD4 engine.

2025 TVS Apache ADV Spied: Features 300cc Engine, Rugged Design to Rival KTM 390 Adventure
Judging by the spy shots, we can expect a semi-fairing setup with a tower-design instrument cluster, almost certainly incorporating a multi-color TFT display for navigation, music controls, and a host of ride analytics like the Raider 125. It gets rid of the vertical cluster seen on other TVS and BMW motorcycles on the 310 platform. The Apache ADV gets 19-inch front and 17-inch rear alloy wheels to handle on and off-road duties. Apart from that, the bike comes with a sturdy luggage rack, upswept twin-shooter exhaust, and a scooped seat for comfort.
Other elements include handlebar-mounted ORVM stalks, auxiliary lights, and a suspension system that consists of USD telescopic front forks, as seen in gold and black, implying various trim and feature options. A full-size windscreen and side guards help with the pressurized seating arrangement, and sure would make a pretty good tourer. The TVS Apache ADV will be powered by its new RT-XD4 engine from MotoSoul 2024.
This engine might feel slight on power flooding with 35.45 PS & 28.5 Nm torque but combined with a 6-speed gearbox and a slipper clutch, it means ahead really much more than what meets the face. The engine comes with dual overhead camshafts, a dual cooling jacket, and a split chamber crankcase with a dual oil pump, aimed at enhancing fuel efficiency, cutting down oil consumption, and keeping it in line with future emission norms.
Compared to the earlier 312.12cc unit, the all-new RT-XD4 engine delivers similar performance figures, while improving on refinement, cooler engine running temperatures, and a better power-to-weight ratio, and is therefore tailor-made for adventure touring. The TVS Apache ADV is expected to launch in mid-2025, bringing cutting-edge features, a rugged design, and a powerful new engine to the premium motorcycle segment, making it an appealing choice for adventure enthusiasts.
