  • TVS Tormax 150 "Liquid Cooled/Monoshock" Step thru for Indonesia launched

    TVS has recently launched its flagship step thru model in Indonesia. Named the "Tormax 150", the Step thru features a 3-Valve, Liquid cooled engine, Monoshock suspension, front and rear disc brakes, LED tail light and turn indicators and a Full Digital console.

    Priced at 14.5 million rupiahs (around Rs. 70k-75K), the 150 cc Tormax makes 13.2 Ps of peak power at 8,000 rpm and weighs 112 Kgs.

    Kudos TVS. The base seems to be ready. How about a similar treatment for our "desi" motorcycles as well..??

                This doesn't seem like the RTR block (for obvious reasons :P)

                But its great to see a fwd sloping 150cc engine, and a multi valved LC one!

                First Indian auto company to deploy ABS, LC now! Good going!

                    interesting to note that the RTR 160 over there has 15.7 bhp while we in india get the 15.2 bhp power figures guess they have easier emission laws

                      They gotta need to work on their currency. car must be costing in billions, super cars in trillions, houses in, wait what's bigger than trillion?
                      you can't use ordinary calculator with such currency. Even computers must be having tough time as they must be using BIG variables.
