The TVS Apache RTR 160 comes with a pair of LED DRLs that enhances its front appearance by adding an aggressive look. We also have an LED taillamp. The motorcycle also gets a semi-digital instrument cluster with lap timer, 0-60 and top speed recorder.
Some of the other TVS Apache RTR 160 features include:

Interestingly, Hero MotoCorp has carried out a similar initiative. The company has recently delivered 751 units of the Hero Glamour to the Karnataka Police Department. The 125cc motorcycles do not feature any specific visual changes and thus are expected to be used for patrolling purposes by the Police personnel.
