If you’re looking for a fun, everyday bike that’s light on the pocket but still gives you that little thrill on the throttle, the TVS Raider 125 might just be the one to watch in 2025. With its bold styling, practical mileage, and impressive features for the price, it’s not hard to see why it’s gaining popularity.
A Sporty Look That Stands Out
The TVS Raider doesn’t look like your average commuter bike—and that’s the point. It has a sharp, aggressive headlamp with LED DRLs that give it a distinct streetfighter vibe. The muscular fuel tank, split seat, and stylish grab rails add to the sporty appeal, making it look like a bike from a higher segment.
Whether you’re heading to college or commuting to work, it definitely grabs attention—without going over the top.
Smart Features for Everyday Use
TVS has packed the TVS Raider with features you usually don’t find in this segment. You get a fully digital instrument cluster that shows real-time mileage, gear position, and even a helmet reminder. There’s also a USB charging port, which comes in handy on longer rides.
In the top variant, you even get a 5-inch TFT screen with Bluetooth connectivity, turn-by-turn navigation, and voice assist. It’s not just sporty—it’s smart too.
Engine That Balances Performance and Mileage
The TVS Raider is powered by a 124.8cc air-cooled engine that produces around 11.4 PS of power and 11.2 Nm of torque. That may not sound like much on paper, but in the real world, the power delivery is smooth and quick, especially in the low to mid-range.
It also features two ride modes – Eco and Power, which you can switch depending on your mood or traffic conditions. Eco mode helps save fuel, while Power mode makes overtaking easier.
Fuel-Efficient Without Feeling Slow
TVS Raider claims a mileage of up to 67 kmpl in Eco mode, and users report real-world mileage in the 55–60 kmpl range, depending on how and where you ride. That makes the Raider one of the most fuel-efficient 125cc bikes without feeling underpowered.
Verdict: A Smart Choice for Young Riders
With prices starting at around ₹95,000 (ex-showroom), the TVS Raider 125 offers a lot for the money—stylish design, good performance, excellent mileage, and modern features. Whether you’re a student looking for your first bike or someone who wants a sporty but practical commuter, the Raider ticks most boxes.
TVS seems to have hit the sweet spot here—it’s a 125cc bike that doesn’t feel basic.
