TVS Apache RR 310 Beats Honda CBR250R (Sales Report): Apache RR 310 came out as the winner in comparison to the most probable rival, the Honda CBR250R. The former registered 175 units in the sales chart while CBR was good for just 54 units in May 2019.
Last month, both the motorcycles were pretty close in terms of sales numbers while this time, it seems like fans of CBR250R are shifting fast into other brands like Suzuki and TVS. The launch of Gixxer SF 250 at INR 1.71 lakh is the worst thing that could happen to the aged CBR250R as both the bikes are offering the same amount of power.
