Quick Review by Maxabout Team

Winning the title of “Best Concept Bike”, the TVS Akula 310 concept was first shown at Delhi Auto Expo 2016 and the company launched the same concept as TVS Apache RR 310 in 2017 based on the Akula concept. With a 310 cc engine at its heart, the race machine gives a tough competition to its rivals such as Kawasaki Ninja 300, Benelli 302R and Yamaha YZF-R3 in the market.

Coming to the engine specifications, the TVS Akula 310/ TVS Apache RR 310 is powered by 310cc 4-Valve [DOHC] engine capable of churning a maximum power of 33.6 BHP @ 9500 rpm and an utmost torque of 33.6 BHP @ 9500 rpm. The engine is mated to a 6-speed transmission. The suspension duties are handled by upside down forks at the front and the rear tyre gets a Cast alloy swing arm suspension. The sports bike gets a Single disc brake with a diameter of 300 mm and a 4-piston fixed caliper and the rear gets a single disc brake with a diameter of 240 mm with a single-piston floating caliper. It is equipped with dual channel ABS for additional safety while braking. The bike complies with the EU-4 emission standard.

High-Ranked tail light and an aggressive riding position justify the acronym Akula with the Russian word “Shark”. The all-digital instrument console is equipped with every modern feature and the twin projector LED headlamps to give it a much more appeal in comparison to RC 390. The claimed top speed of the bike is 160 kmph and a mileage of 31 kmpl is decent for the sports machine. Judging every feature supported and the radical design, the TVS Akula 310 is a sports bike comfortable to ride on every terrain and gives a notable performance on the track.
