TVS Raider First-in-Segment Features That Redefine 125cc Riding


The TVS Raider has come a long way since its launch in 2021. With over 1.6 million units sold as of September 2025, it is not just a popular 125cc bike but a benchmark.

However, what truly sets the Raider apart is not just its numbers. It is the sheer depth of features it brings to a segment where most bikes stick to the basics. From segment-first dual disc brakes with ABS and GTT (Glide Through Traffic) technology to a 5-inch TFT display with 99+ connected features, the Raider truly offers a wicked ride – one that no other 125cc motorcycle can match today.

Here are some of the TVS Raider 125 features that are redefining the 125cc riding experience:

  1. 1. GTT – Glide Through Traffic Technology 

    Urban commuting often means slow, stop-and-go riding. The TVS Raider’s GTT (Glide Through Traffic) technology is a segment-first feature that lets the bike crawl forward at low speeds without constant modulation of the clutch and throttle. It makes navigating traffic not just easier, but also more fuel-efficient. 

  2. 2. Dual Disc Brakes with ABS 

    Safety is another area where the TVS Raider raises the benchmark. The motorcycle offers a 240mm front disc and a 200mm rear disc (on TFT DD and SXC DD variants), a segment-first dual disc setup, paired with Single-channel ABS for confident braking in all conditions.

    The Dual Disc ABS combo ensures the TVS Raider is not just the fastest in the block, but also the safest one to bring to a halt.

  3. 3. iGO Assist with Boost Mode 

    City riding demands two things: fuel efficiency at slow speeds and quick bursts of power when needed. The iGO Assist system on the TVS Raider 125 delivers both. 

    It works in two ways: 
    • IntelliGO (Auto Start-Stop): Automatically shuts the engine off at idle and restarts it instantly, cutting fuel wastage in stop-and-go traffic. 
    • Boost Mode: The Raider is powered by a refined 125cc, 3-valve engine that produces 11.75 Nm of torque at 6,000 rpm. With Boost Mode, riders get an instant power surge for quicker acceleration, allowing them to sprint from 0–60 km/h in just 5.8 seconds. 

  4. 4. Follow-Me-Headlamp 

    Another segment-first feature in the 125cc category, the Follow-Me-Headlamp keeps the headlamp switched on for a short duration after the engine and ignition are turned off. This feature allows riders to safely navigate dimly lit areas or parking zones. 

  5. 5. 5-Inch TFT Display  

    The top-spec TVS Raider TFT variant gets a full-colour 5-inch TFT display, the same kind used on premium motorcycles, with SmartXonnect offering 99+ connected features. Lower variants come with a Reverse Multicolour LCD cluster with 85+ connected features.
