A lot of the big Indian motorcycle manufacturers have enjoyed a pretty solid 2024. Big names like Bajaj, Royal Enfield, and TVS all made headlines on multiple occasions thanks to the new models and tech innovations they brought to the market.
But just as 2024 is about to draw to a close, TVS has managed to yet again make headlines, and it’s thanks to a bike that just might be the biggest thing to come out of the Indian brand’s portfolio.
We’ve been raving on and on about how small-displacement adventure bikes have been all the rage lately. Executive Editor Jonathon Klein had some huge praises for Royal Enfield’s Himalayan 450. In a similar manner, I had quite a lot of good things to say about the CFMoto Ibex 450. And while these two bikes are well and truly global models, there are a lot of Indian-market bikes that we wish would make their way to the global stage. And one of them just has to be this new ADV bike from TVS.
Although not quite unveiled in all its glory just yet, the new ADV machine is speculated to be the RTX 300. It was recently spotted testing on India’s busy streets by someone who goes by the Instagram handle Domi_Raptor, and judging from the way it looks, as well as the supposedly new engine that’s powering it, well, it just might be the perfect recipe for a capable beginner ADV bike.
