TVS Ronin

TVS Motorcycles has launched the new Ronin for the Indian market with a price of Rs 1.49 lakh (ex-showroom). The bike has been launched in India in 3 variants. The bike was earlier expected to be a cruiser, but after the launch, it has been made clear that the bike follows a mixed design of Scrambler and a Cafe racer design language. With the TVS Ronin, this is the first time the manufacturer is stepping into a new segment of motorcycles in India. Until now, the manufacturer only had entry-level sports bikes on offer like the Apache series, which are sold in India in multiple variants.
