It seems that the design concept of the TVS Apache RTR 160 4V (particularly the fuel tank, tank extensions and the exhaust) was inspired by the TVS RTR 200 4V, which is its elder sibling and was rolled out in the market on March 7, 2018. Its styling is inspired by the Darken Concept, which was showcased at the 2014 Auto Expo. 

The tank shrouds, LED lights, new instrument panel and the updated Showa suspension along with chassis talks about the sharp design language of the bike.
