TVS Radeon gets a 110cc Duralife engine. The engine churns out 8.4 BHP of power and 8.7 Nm of torque.

It comes with a fuel tank capacity of 10 Litres, taking the total riding range to 600 kms on a full tank. The bike records 0-60 km/hr in 8.34 seconds.
It looks a bit refreshed than the usual Splendor. It gets knee pads on the uniquely styled fuel tank. In the front, it gets LED DRLs integrated into its headlamps. Moreover, the bike looks boxy and plain. But at this price, you have to choose mileage over the looks. The engine and gearbox get light golden highlights and heavy chrome inserts are seen on the carrier, exhaust, crash guard, kick starter and rear shock absorbers.
