The underpinnings are the same as well with the addition of a new 37mm USD fork. The rear suspension continues to be a monoshock. The brakes include a 270m petal disc at the front and a 130mm drum (for the Drum variant) or a 200mm petal disc at the rear mounted on 17-inch alloy wheels at both ends. The bike has a fuel tank capacity of 12 litres and weighs in at 146kg kerb of the top variant. The ground clearance is 180mm while the seat height is an accessible 800mm.

The new USD variant will be the new top variant. Other variants will continue to get a telescopic fork. The TVS Apache RTR 160 4V is a prominent player in the 160cc segment and goes against the likes of Bajaj Pulsar N160 and the Hero Xtreme 160R 4V.
