TVS launched one of the most-awaited ADVs last year, the RTX, and the demand the brand witnessed was really substantial. And now, another TVS ADV has been spotted for the second time, this time in undisguised form. So, is this the RTX 450, based on the upcoming BMW F 450 GS? Let’s discuss –Attention Readers!

TVS-Norton ADV Spotted!

First things first, the ADV that was spotted is not the RTX 450. In fact, it is not an actual TVS bike either. In 2020, TVS acquired Norton, a British motorcycle manufacturer, which was popular for producing iconic cafe racers and sporty machines. Following the acquisition, TVS and Norton together showcased 4 new bikes at the EICMA 2025, and one of those 4 bikes was the Norton Atlas GT, which was spotted in undisguised form. As part of Norton’s plans, the brand will be introducing two ADVs, wherein the Atlas is a more adventure-focused ADV with knobby tyres and spoke wheels, while the Atlas GT is more of a touring-focused motorcycle. 

From the spy shots, it is evident that the ADV is the Atlas GT, as only the GT gets alloy wheels. Having said that, the Atlas GT, being an all-new product, has a very unique and distinctive design with a twin LED projector headlight setup, fairing-integrated fog lights, a tall windscreen, a dual-disc brake setup, a muscular fuel tank, and much more. The design of the ADV is quite purposeful, while still being quite elegant and stylish. But what else does it have to offer?

Features

Like every TVS motorcycle, this Norton motorcycle is packed to the brim with features. The ADV gets a slew of features like an 8-inch TFT touchscreen, lean-sensitive ABS and traction control, launch control, hill hold assist, wheelie control, adjustable, a quickshifter, adjustable brake and clutch levers and the list goes on. All of these features combined will ensure a convenient and safer riding experience.

TVS-Norton ADV Spotted – Powertrain And Pricing!

As of now, we know that the Atlas and Atlas GT will be getting a 585cc twin-cylinder liquid-cooled engine. However, the power and torque figures are still under wraps. It is expected to produce around 65-70bhp. We believe that this ADV will be a more premium offering from Norton, which would bear a hefty price tag, too. We can expect a price tag of around Rs 7 lakh (on-road, Mumbai). However, as Norton is manufacturing its bikes in TVS’ plant in India, the brand could go aggressive with the pricing. Norton could launch the Atlas and the Atlas GT by mid-2026.
