Details
Raider is India's first commuter bike with a TFT screen
Raider 125 stands out as India's first commuter motorcycle with a TFT instrument console, typically found on premium bikes. It boasts SmartXonnect technology, connecting riders to the motorcycle via a mobile app. The two-wheeler uses a 124.8cc, single-cylinder engine, delivering 11.22hp of power at 7,500rpm and 11.2Nm of torque at 6,000rpm.

What Next?
Sales are expected to boost with superhero-themed bikes
The Raider 125 Marvel Super Squad edition is expected to boost sales and enhance TVS' image. The Marvel editions of the NTorq 125 scooter, were well received by customers. Pricing the upcoming special edition variant at a premium compared to regular models may pose a challenge. Despite this, the move is likely to attract superhero fans/enthusiasts, further increasing the Raider 125's popularity in India.
