Key styling elements include MULTIPOINT projector headlamps, aerodynamic winglets, a distinctive muffler with a signature exhaust note and coloured alloy wheels. The forward-biased stance and sculpted form are intended to suggest visual speed and aerodynamic efficiency.

A major highlight is its advanced technology suite. A high-resolution TFT display, powered by TVS SmartXonnect, offers over 50 connected features. These include integration with Alexa and smartwatches, live navigation, real-time vehicle tracking and over-the-air updates. For safety, the scooter is equipped with ABS, traction control – a segment first – as well as crash alerts, theft alerts and an emergency brake warning system.

The company showcased the Aegis Rider Vision AR HUD Helmet, announced a partnership between TVS Racing and MT Helmets, and launched the TVS Racing Offroad Training Academy.

The Aegis Rider Vision Helmet uses advanced Augmented Reality (AR) Head-Up Display (HUD) technology for rider safety.

The helmet features a binocular µOLED projection system, an integrated action camera, wireless connectivity, adaptive brightness and a 7,000 mAh battery. It pairs with TVS motorcycles via a companion app for customised display information. Developed with Nexx Helmets, its carbon fibre shell meets standards including ECE 22.06 and CE certification.

TVS Racing has formed a partnership with MT Helmets, a premium helmet manufacturer, to introduce helmets engineered for superior aerodynamics, comfort, and global-standard safety, starting at INR 5,999. The collaboration merges TVS Racing’s performance ethos with MT’s protection science.

As part of its ‘Ride for Change’ initiative, TVS Motor Company also organised a children’s helmet distribution drive in Vagator, distributing 100 helmets to students to encourage early awareness of road safety.

TVS Motor Co also launched the TVS Racing ‘Offroad’ Training Academy, a specialised platform designed to help riders develop foundational off-road and adventure riding skills. Led by TVS Racing champions and international instructors, the academy focuses on Level 1 skill building, covering bike handling, terrain navigation, body control, balance, and obstacle riding for riders with limited off-road experience.
