BMW Motorrad recently launched the BMW-TVS collaboration product, the BMW G310 RR sports bike, in the Indian two-wheeler market. However, since the motorcycle was based entirely on the TVS Apache RR 310, it got mixed reviews from Indian bike lovers. Nonetheless, it got a bumper booking, which could be thanks to the brand value of BMW all around the world. Now the question is if BMW can offer a rebadged bike, why can't TVS?
The TVS Apache 310 Street based on the BMW G310R could be a good idea, and rendering artist Pratyush Raut has given life to this thought, and the result came out to be outstanding. There are plenty of products that can be developed on the 310cc platform. For this render, the artist took colour scheme inspiration from the other models by the brand in our country. Hence, an impeccable blend of white, red, and black shades has been used.
The rendering artist named this sketch bike the TVS Apache 310 street concept. The artist thought this bike would have a reverse-inclined 312.2cc, single-cylinder engine, which is designed to belt out 33.52 bhp of power at 9,700 rpm and 27.3 Nm of torque at 7,700 rpm. This engine is combined with a smooth-shifting 6-speed gearbox. Apart from that, it is fitted with sophisticated tech like ride-by-wire throttle, which helps in crawl mode.
The imagined TVS Apache 310 Street is built on the trellis frame and gets some new design cues on the fuel tank and tank shrouds. However, some design hints are added, but the golden-coloured USD front forks are retained in the rendering. The red-finished Apache looks more amazing than the BMW G310RR.
As far as the bike’s launch and price are concerned, it could be around Rs 20,000 less than the BMW bike. But it needs to be mentioned here that it’s completely imagination and it’s not clear whether this bike will come or not.
