The base model uses a drum brake setup at the rear wheel and a single-channel ABS. The mid and the top versions get disc brakes on both ends along with dual-channel ABS. The top-of-the-line version further benefits from SmartXonnect technology with the voice assist function. The prices vary depending on the variant selected.

This model also gets an X-ring chain and a wider 120mm rear tyre, and is 2kg lighter than its predecessor. Meanwhile, the 2022 version retains the fuel tank, engine cowl, single-piece seat, split-style grab rail, and side-slung exhaust from the previous model. The hardware comprises telescopic front forks and twin springs to handle suspension tasks.
The feature list now comprises an LED headlight with LED DRL at the front instead of a halogen headlight on the old model. At the back, the 2022 model gets a redesigned LED taillight. Other features include a Bluetooth-enabled fully-digital instrument cluster with revised user interface, slipper clutch, dual-channel ABS, and three ride modes – Rain, Urban, and Sport.
The mechanical specifications retain the 159.7cc, air-cooled, single-cylinder engine. Linked to a five-speed gearbox, the motor now makes 15.8bhp at 8,750rpm and 13.85Nm of peak torque at 7,000rpm as against 15.3bhp and 13.9Nm previously.
The TVS Apache RTR 160 rivals the Bajaj Pulsar NS160, Pulsar N160, Hero Xtreme 160R, and the likes in the Indian market.
