In addition to the aesthetic updates, the bike will retain its advanced electronics package. This includes a 5-inch TFT instrument cluster with Bluetooth connectivity, launch control, riding modes, traction control, cornering ABS, and a bi-directional quickshifter. The addition of cruise control will be complemented by new switchgear that accommodates the feature.
Engine and Performance
Mechanically, the 2025 KTM 390 Duke remains unchanged. It continues to be powered by a 399cc, single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine that produces 44.25 bhp and 39 Nm of torque. This engine is paired with a six-speed gearbox and a bi-directional quickshifter, ensuring a thrilling riding experience.
Pricing and Availability
The current model of the KTM 390 Duke is priced at Rs 2.95 lakh (ex-showroom). While KTM has not officially announced the pricing for the updated model, it is expected that the addition of cruise control and the new color scheme may result in a slight price increase.
