Inspired by its racing heritage of four decades, TVS Racing, the factory racing team of TVS Motor Company, makes a historic announcement with the first-ever TVS Asia One Make Championship on Thursday. This marks a significant milestone in TVS Racing’s global roadmap, making it the first-ever Asia One Make Championship by an Indian manufacturer.

The championship will kicks-off in Malaysia this year, alongside the coveted Asian Road Racing Championship (ARRC).

TVS Racing has been pivotal in engineering the TVS Apache series through the company’s “Track to Road” strategy. This has resulted in TVS Apache becoming the fastest growing brand in the >150cc segment. The brand has redefined the sports segment with a focus on race performance, making it a highly desirable product for sports enthusiasts.

TVS Racing is also the pioneer of the One Make Championship in the country, the first Indian manufacturer to introduce the series in India. Divided into the Open and Novice categories, the races run alongside categories including Rookie, Novice, RR 310, Women’s, and Media.

Commenting on the development, Vimal Sumbly, Head - Premium Business, TVS Motor Company, said, “The engineering and performance prowess in our race machines has been derived from TVS Racing’s race-bred pedigree on the track, proving its mettle across a host of racing formats and has put us on the global map. We are excited about carving our success story internationally. The TVS Asia One Make Championship will play a pivotal role as a milestone in our global journey for TVS Racing.

We take this as an opportunity to take our learnings from the Indian tracks and demonstrate our capabilities internationally. We also look forward to having international racers atop our TVS Asia One Make Apache RR 310 motorcycles competing in the future championships.”

At around 2:49 PM, TVS Motor Company was trading at Rs644.95 apiece down by Rs13.15 or 2% on the BSE.
