TVS RTX 300 Launch: 300cc Adventure Bike, Price, Specs

Big news for bike lovers in India! The wait seems almost over. TVS Motor Company, famous for bikes like the Apache, is getting ready to launch its very first adventure motorcycle, the TVS RTX 300. After lots of rumors and spy photos, it looks like this exciting new bike could hit showrooms as soon as next month (August 2025). It's better late than never, and this launch is a big deal!

The heart of the RTX 300 is a brand-new engine, the RT-XD4. This is a fresh 300cc platform that TVS first showed off at their MotoSoul event back in 2024. Don't let the "300cc" fool you – this little engine packs a punch! It makes a healthy 35PS of power and a strong 28.5Nm of torque. That means it should have enough grunt for fun rides and comfortable cruising.

Built for the Long Haul, Not Just the Rough Stuff

From the pictures and information leaked so far, the RTS 300 seems designed more for long-distance touring and exploring paved roads than for super tough, rocky off-road trails. How can we tell? It comes with 19-inch front wheels and 17-inch rear wheels, both made of alloy. This setup is usually better for smooth roads than for deep mud or rocks. So, think of it as your perfect partner for weekend getaways and highway adventures.

A Whole New Look for TVS

Get ready for a surprise! The RTX 300's styling is completely different from anything else TVS has ever made. That makes sense because this is their first-ever road-legal adventure bike. Some people think the front, especially the cool twin LED headlights, looks a little bit like the Triumph Tiger – a famous adventure bike. That's a good thing! It has a strong trellis frame (like a metal cage) with a bolt-on rear section. For handling bumps, it uses an upside-down front fork and a monoshock at the back. Both should give it decent wheel travel for a comfy ride.

Will It Be Packed with Cool Gadgets?

Absolutely! If TVS's other 310cc bikes (the Apache RTR 310 and RR 310) are anything to go by, the RTX 300 could set a whole new standard for features in a small adventure bike. Those bikes offer things even bigger, more expensive motorcycles sometimes miss. So, what can we realistically hope for on the new TVS ADV?

• A bright, clear TFT console (like a fancy digital dashboard)

• Multiple riding modes (so you can change how the bike behaves for rain, sport, or touring)

• Switchable traction control (helps stop the rear wheel from spinning wildly, especially on wet roads)

• Cruise control (to rest your hand on long highway stretches)

• A bi-directional quickshifter (letting you change gears up and down without the clutch!)

These features alone would make the RTX 300 incredibly well-equipped for its size and price.

Where Does the TVS RTX 300 Fit In? Who Will Buy It?

TVS is playing it smart. Since this is their first adventure bike, they aren't jumping straight into the super-tough, expensive 450cc class. Instead, with the new 300cc engine, they're aiming to create an accessible, touring-focused motorcycle that's still comfortable and stable on highways.

Price-wise, experts expect it to land somewhere between the KTM 250 Adventure and the Royal Enfield Himalayan 450. A smart guess is around ₹ 2.5 lakh (ex-showroom). This puts it right in the same ballpark as the KTM 250 Adventure.

Think of the TVS RTX 300 as the perfect entry-level adventure bike. It's ideal for riders who are ready to move up from bikes like the Hero XPulse 200 but don't want to spend a huge amount of money or miss out on modern features. It promises adventure styling and touring comfort without breaking the bank.
