Among the
fastest growing premium motorcycle brands with global presence
TVS Motor Company, a reputed manufacturer of
two-wheelers and three-wheelers in the world, today announced that its
premium motorcycle brand, TVS Apache has crossed a key sales milestone of 3
million units. Launched in 2005, the TVS Apache series of motorcycles is
considered to be the fastest growing premium motorcycle brands in the
country with presence across the globe.
Commenting on the milestone, Mr. K.N. Radhakrishnan, President & Chief
Executive Officer, TVS Motor Company, said “We are truly humbled to
achieve this milestone and I want to express my gratitude to all our valued
customers both in India and across the globe. Through the years, TVS Apache
has stood for providing an unrivalled experience backed by its rich racing
pedigree, technological firsts and stylish design. The brand has, over a
decade, developed a host of premium offerings, ranging from 160cc to 310cc,
creating aspiration along every step of evolution. The 3 million milestone
is special as it confirms that our ever-growing customer base of racing
enthusiasts has taken warmly to our two new offerings, namely the TVS Apache
RTR 160 4V and TVS Apache RR 310. This also presents me with an opportunity
to express gratitude to the team behind TVS Apache whose tireless work on
the products has ensured that the brand has created an international
appeal.”
The TVS Apache series is born on the race track, incorporating learnings
from TVS Racing – the factory racing arm of TVS Motor Company, with a
history of 36 years in motorsports. TVS Apache, the premium brand, spans
across two categories – Naked and Super Sports. The RTR (Race Throttle
Response) series, encompassing TVS Apache RTR 160, TVS Apache RTR 180, TVS Apache RTR 200 4V Race Edition 2.0, and the recently launched TVS Apache RTR
160 4V are the existing offerings in the Naked motorcycles category. On
the Super Sport front, the brand introduced TVS Apache RR 310 as their first
entrant into the RR (Race Replica) category. The motorcycle boasts of
superior performance and riding dynamics, combined with a powerful,
expressive design.
The TVS Apache series has created a series of experiential initiatives to
connect with their customer base. Apache Racing Experience (ARE) is a
platform where Apache owners get an exclusive first-hand experience of
leveraging the racing DNA in their motorcycles under the guidance of
National Road Racing Champions from TVS Racing. The TVS Apache Owners Group
(AOG) has been created to become a common platform for customers to share
their enthusiasm for motorcycling. Today, AOG rides have been conducted in
over 33 cities, witnessing participation of over 3000 customers. Further,
the brand also engages in performance shows such as Apache Pro Performance
(APP) which create widespread customer engagement and taps potential
customers.
TVS Apache is an award-winning series, which has consistently won
recognition in the prestigious J.D. Power survey four years in a row (from
2015 to 2018). Recently, the TVS Apache RTR 180 was awarded as the Most
Appealing Premium Motorcycle by J.D. Power Asia Pacific Awards for 2018.
