If you are interested in this segment and are eyeing the RR 300, here is a detailed breakdown of how it fares against its rivals. Keeway RR 300 vs KTM RC 390 vs TVS Apache RR 310 vs BMW G 310 RR: Price The Keeway RR 300 undercuts its rivals with an introductory price of ₹ 1.99 lakh, making it the most affordable in this list.

Priced at ₹ 3.22 lakh, the KTM RC 390 offers the highest feature-to-performance balance, while the BMW G 310 RR is positioned at ₹ 3.05 lakh (ex-showroom), offering similar underpinnings to the Apache but with BMW branding and minor design tweaks. All prices mentioned are the ex-showroom rates in Delhi. Keeway RR 300 vs Rivals: Performance The KTM RC 390 leads in performance figures, with its 373.27 cc liquid-cooled single-cylinder making 42.9 bhp and 37 Nm of torque All four bikes use single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engines paired with six-speed gearboxes.

The TVS BTO program offers you the option of kitting the bike out with fully-adjustable front suspension.

The Apache RR 310 and BMW G 310 RR both offer full LED lighting, multiple riding modes (Track, Sport, Urban, Rain), and a digital display with ride analytics and telemetry.

The RC 390 is sold in a single fully loaded spec with two colour options. The BMW G 310 RR is available in two variants set apart by cosmetic features and elements. The Keeway RR 300 makes a strong case as a beginner-friendly faired sportbike, but the RC 390 and Apache RR 310 stand out for buyers prioritising outright performance and a premium tech suite. The G 310 RR delivers a nearly identical experience to the Apache with BMW's brand appeal and cosmetic tweaks. Check out Upcoming Bikes In India. First Published Date: 18 Jul 2025, 17:00 pm IST
