TVS Teases New Motorcycle Launch On 6th July
TVS might launch its maiden cruiser Zepplin R on 6th July, the company might also introduce its rebadged BMW G 310 R
TVS Motors might launch its maiden cruiser bike, Zepplin R, on 6th July as the Hosur-based bike maker has sent a teaser informing about a new launch on the said date. The image, which has a T-like design, says ‘new way of life’ further hinting that it could be the cruiser.
But, as TVS hasn’t mentioned the name Zepplin R, it could also launch some other motorcycle or scooter. The Apache maker is working on its own version of the BMW G310 R to take on the Bajaj Dominar 400, Honda CB 300R, and KTM Duke 390.
For almost 4 years, TVS was tight-lipped about the Zepplin R. As per the specifications available so far, the cruiser bike features a mild hybrid engine with a belt final drive combination for the first time in India.
The mild hybrid tech is embedded on to an all-new 220 cc single cylinder engine that exerts 20 HP and 18.5 Nm. But, we don’t know if these figures are the combined output of the engine and motor or not.
At the front, the flat LED headlight looks radical with brushed silver surrounds that hold the front LED indicators. The head lamp gets a split setup like the Bajaj Dominar 400. The triple T looks chunky and shows up a lot of muscle.
The tank is split by a matte black element at the centre which also houses the key slot. The single piece seat gets a step up design while the rear cowls taper on to the small rectangular LED tail lamp. The cruiser features a small plastic tail tidy that houses the indicators.
The upcoming Zepplin R gets Ducati Diavel-like rear tyre hugger with large brushed silver clamps. The TVS lettering is also embossed on them which looks cool from the rear. The belt drive system is securely guarded by a full plastic cover.
The side panels get extensive detailing with brushed silver inserts on matte black finish. The chiseled tank sports TVS’ horse logo finished in black. The Zepplin R gets spoke wheels with disc brakes, 300 mm at the front and 240 mm at the rear.
The front gets huge rake USD forks finished in gold while the rear gets a regular monoshock suspension. The engine is, most probably, air cooled although a radiator guard could be seen. The rear tyre looks fat and beautiful.
When launched the TVS Zeppelin R will compete against the likes of the Bajaj Avenger 220 Cruise. It’s likely to command a premium price tag of Rs. 2.5 lakhs (ex-showroom) owing to the segment first tech on offer.
