The company also announced launch of 7 high performance models across the performance and sport, commuter and utility and urban mobility categories. The models include TVS Apache RR 310 and TVS Apache RTR 200, TVS Raider 125, Trak 150, HLX 125 4G, and HLX 150X and TVS NTORQ 125.

With this launch, TVS Motor said it becomes the only two-wheeler brand in South Africa to operate across multiple product forms and segments simultaneously.

This expansion is a cornerstone of the company’s international growth strategy; as of 2025, international business accounts for 25 per cent of total sales, with the African continent representing over half of global operational revenue and nearly 70 per cent of export unit volumes.

“Our immediate priority is to ensure strong retail expansion, seamless after-sales support, and consistent brand visibility. We look forward to building a strong, sustainable presence in the market,” Rahul Nayak, Continent Head – Africa, said.
