TVS RTR 125 LC Debuts at EICMA 2026

TVS Motor Company has unveiled the new RTR 125 LC at EICMA 2026 in Milan, introducing a sporty 125cc motorcycle aimed at younger riders and everyday urban commuters.

The production-ready model features a liquid-cooled engine, aggressive streetfighter styling and a range of modern features, including a 5-inch TFT display with navigation.

Designed for European A1 licence holders, the RTR 125 LC is developed for everyday commuting as well as weekend rides. It features a sharp, mass-forward design with sculpted bodywork, an exposed trellis frame and distinctive LED lighting.

The motorcycle is powered by a 125cc, liquid-cooled, four-valve, DOHC engine producing 14.9 PS at 9,000 rpm and 12 Nm of torque at 7,000 rpm. The engine is paired with a six-speed gearbox and a multiplate assist and slipper clutch. It also gets multiple riding modes to adapt to different riding conditions.

The RTR 125 LC is built around TVS' Synchro Stiff chassis, featuring a trellis frame and cast swingarm. Suspension duties are handled by a 41mm KYB USD front fork and an adjustable rear monoshock. The motorcycle rides on 17-inch alloy wheels, wrapped in 100/80-17 front and 140/70-R17 rear tyres.

Braking is handled by a 300mm front disc with a radially mounted Bybre caliper and a 240mm rear disc with a Bybre caliper. It also gets dual-channel ABS and riding modes.

In terms of design, the RTR 125 LC features a rectangular LED projector headlamp with a distinctive DRL, a tri-split LED tail lamp and LED turn indicators. Its exposed trellis frame and sharply sculpted fuel tank further emphasise its streetfighter character.

The motorcycle also gets a 5-inch TFT instrument console with multiway Bluetooth connectivity. The display supports full-screen map mirroring and turn-by-turn navigation, while a hazard lamp adds to its convenience features.

With the RTR 125 LC, TVS is expanding its international motorcycle portfolio with a more premium offering in the entry-level performance segment. However, TVS has not yet announced its launch timeline or availability in India or other international markets.
