TVS is cooking up something big – and fast. A new 450cc twin-cylinder bike is on the horizon, and it might just be the most exciting launch from the brand yet. Here’s everything we know so far.
TVS Is Taking the Next Big Leap
TVS Motor Company has officially confirmed they’re working on a new 450cc motorcycle for India. But this isn’t just another commuter—it’s going to be a performance-focused, fully-faired sportbike. Think of it as a bigger, meaner sibling to the Apache RR 310.
And guess what? It’s being built on a fresh 450cc parallel-twin platform co-developed with BMW Motorrad. That’s right—the same folks behind the BMW F 450 GS. So yes, expectations are sky-high.

A New Chapter in the TVS-BMW Partnership
The new 450cc platform was first seen at EICMA 2024 and features a liquid-cooled parallel-twin engine delivering 48 PS and 45 Nm of torque. It’s also the world’s first engine with a 125-degree firing order—seriously cool tech.
TVS will likely tweak this engine a bit to match the supersport nature of their upcoming machine. While the name hasn’t been confirmed, fans are already calling it the Apache RR 450.
More Than Just One New Bike
It’s not just one motorcycle in the pipeline. TVS is also expected to launch a 450cc neo-retro roadster under the Norton brand, which it owns. That version will likely have the same engine but tuned down for relaxed riding.
And if you’re into electric rides, there’s good news there too. TVS is developing a new high-performance electric scooter that’s nothing like the current iQube. This one’s aimed at enthusiasts and could shake up the e-scooter segment when it launches later this year.

When’s the Big Reveal?
If everything goes to plan, TVS will unveil the Apache RR 450 at MotoSoul 2025, scheduled for December. The Norton 450 could debut internationally at the EICMA 2025 in November.
Final Thoughts
TVS is clearly shifting gears and aiming for premium performance. With BMW tech under the hood and bold ambitions across both petrol and electric segments, the company seems ready to play with the big boys.
Whether you’re a hardcore sportbike lover or just curious about what’s next in the Indian two-wheeler market, the upcoming 450cc lineup from TVS is something to keep an eye on.
