TVS is one of India’s biggest and most popular motorcycle manufacturers. The company, through its racing subsidiary TVS Racing, has just announced the launch of India’s first-ever electric two-wheeler racing series. The popularity of electric motorcycles has been skyrocketing in India and other neighboring countries, and it’s interesting to see more and more motorsports initiatives surrounding electric two-wheelers.
As for TVS’ initiative, it’s called the TVS Racing Electric One Make Championship, or e-OMC. The racing series will center around a new electric motorcycle platform developed by TVS exclusively for the racing series. Dubbed the Apache RTE, the fully electric sportbikes will all be equally specced, which means that eking out a victory will be more about rider skill than anything else.
