Looking for a stylish commuter motorcycle that delivers impressive fuel efficiency without stretching your budget? The TVS Raider 125 has emerged as one of the most popular choices in the 125cc segment, thanks to its sporty design, feature-rich package, and claimed mileage of up to 60 kmpl.

With a starting ex-showroom price of ₹83,410, the Raider 125 is aimed at daily riders who want a balance of performance, comfort, and affordability.

Price and Variants

The TVS Raider 125 is available in multiple variants to suit different budgets and feature preferences.

Variant Ex-showroom Price (Delhi)

Drum	₹83,410
Single Seat	₹89,020
iGO	₹93,570
Split Seat	₹93,570
SSE	₹94,570
SXC DD	₹97,775
TFT DD	₹99,620

Engine and Performance

Powering the Raider 125 is a 124.8cc, air- and oil-cooled, single-cylinder engine that produces:

• 11.2 hp at 7,500 rpm

• Up to 11.75 Nm of torque at 6,000 rpm

The Drum and Single Seat variants generate slightly lower torque at 11.2 Nm because they do not feature the iGO assist system.

The engine is tuned to offer a smooth ride for everyday city commuting while providing enough performance for occasional highway trips.

Features That Stand Out

Even the base variants come equipped with a digital LCD instrument cluster, while the top-end TFT DD variant upgrades to a 5-inch TFT display.

Depending on the variant, features include:

• Voice assist

• Call and SMS management

• Turn-by-turn navigation

• Smartphone connectivity

• On-console notifications

• Ride information display

These premium features help the Raider compete with motorcycles priced well above its segment.

Safety and Riding Comfort

Higher variants such as the SXC DD and TFT DD offer:

• Front and rear disc brakes

• Single-channel ABS

• Glide Through Technology (GTT), which allows the motorcycle to move smoothly at low speeds without throttle input, making stop-and-go city traffic easier to handle.

Mileage and Dimensions

The TVS Raider 125 has an ARAI-certified fuel efficiency of 56.7 kmpl. In real-world riding conditions, owners can expect around 55–65 kmpl, depending on traffic conditions, riding style, and maintenance.

Other specifications include:

• Kerb weight: 123–125 kg

• Ground clearance: 180 mm

The lightweight design makes the motorcycle easy to handle in urban traffic.

Colours and Special Editions

The Raider 125 is available in 13 colour options, including shades of:

• Black

• Grey

• Red

• Blue

• Purple

• Yellow

TVS also offers special edition graphics inspired by popular Marvel characters, including Black Panther, Iron Man, Deadpool, and Wolverine, giving buyers more stylish options to choose from.

The Bottom Line

The TVS Raider 125 is a strong contender in the commuter motorcycle segment. With its sporty styling, modern technology, efficient 124.8cc engine, and real-world mileage of up to 60 kmpl, it offers excellent value for riders looking for an affordable and feature-packed daily commuter.
