KTM is gearing up to bring its popular 890 Adventure series and 890 Duke R to India by the end of this year or early next year. With KTM enthusiasts awaiting bigger bikes in the mid-size segment, these models are set to stir up excitement among Indian riders.
KTM 890 Adventure and 890 Adventure R: The Perfect Big-Bike Upgrade
The KTM 890 Adventure and its off-road-focused sibling, the 890 Adventure R, are expected to hit Indian roads soon. Powered by an 889cc liquid-cooled parallel-twin engine delivering 105PS and 100Nm, both bikes offer an exhilarating ride. The 890 Adventure R adds off-road prowess with better suspension, off-road tires, and motocross-style seating.
KTM 890 Duke R: Streetfighter Power
For streetfighter enthusiasts, the KTM 890 Duke R will bring fierce competition to the Indian market, especially against rivals like the Kawasaki Z900. The 890 Duke R boasts the same 889cc engine but tuned to generate 121PS and 99Nm, making it an ideal upgrade for Duke 390 owners looking for more power.
KTM Enduro Series: Offroad Dreams Come True
With off-roading gaining popularity, KTM might introduce its Enduro series with 450cc 4-stroke and 250cc 2-stroke machines. These bikes will be purely off-road focused and likely not street-legal, targeting the growing motorsports scene in India.
Expected Price and Launch Timeline
All models are expected to arrive via the CBU route, making them premium offerings. The KTM 890 Adventure could start at Rs 19 lakh, while the 890 Adventure R may retail for Rs 22 lakh. The 890 Duke R is expected to be priced around Rs 15 lakh. Launch timelines point towards late 2024 or early 2025.
Conclusion: KTM’s Bold Entry into India’s Premium Segment
With the upcoming launch of the KTM 890 Adventure series, 890 Duke R, and potentially the Enduro range, KTM is making a strong statement in India’s premium motorcycle market. These bikes are set to provide Indian riders with a thrilling mix of power, performance, and versatility. Whether you’re a streetfighter enthusiast, adventure seeker, or off-road junkie, KTM’s new offerings promise something for everyone.
