The TVS Raider 125 comes with a TFT display that includes features like SmartXonnect, which provides information such as turn-by-turn navigation, vehicle details, range, and more. Speaking of the screen, the resolution is perfect, the quality is fantastic, and over time, customers won't get bored of it - that's what makes it special.

Ride Modes

This bike offers two modes: Eco and Power. As the name suggests, Eco mode ensures maximum mileage and provides the most comfortable ride by maintaining a smooth throttle response. The second mode, Power, allows the rider to fully enjoy the 11 PS of this engine, and the top speed of 100 km/h can only be achieved in this mode.

USB Socket

To charge your smartphones on the go, TVS has provided a USB socket conveniently located in the middle. This feature has become essential in modern motorcycles, as people often use their smartphones mounted on holders. While many riders used to add this feature aftermarket, companies are now including it as standard equipment.

LED DRLs And Three Sections of Halogen Lights

The front face features a prominent headlight setup with funky, C-shaped LED DRLs. Between these DRLs, TVS has provided two sections that emit low beam light, and at the bottom, there's another section for the high beam. The design is crafted to capture attention. The blinkers are halogen, while the tail light is LED.

Modern Design

The best part about this motorcycle is that it is a good-looking commuter bike, and from any angle, it doesnt look boring, unlike many other commuter bikes. The dual-tone treatment extending to the exhaust and the cowl in body color add to its sporty nature. Another exciting feature is the range of color options, which are:

  • Fiery Yellow
  • Forza Blue
  • Wicked Black
  • Blazing Blue
  • Striking Red

Additionally, TVS has launched two special editions in the SSE variant: the Iron Man edition and the Black Panther edition. These models feature unique graphics that make the bike look even more striking.

Under Seat Storage

The rear seat can be quickly removed, providing enough space to store your smartphone, wallet, and some keys. It comes in handy during rainy weather or when youre wearing trousers without pockets. In these cases, this storage will be your savior. Moreover, the Raider offers two seat options: a split seat and a single long seat.
