2026 Aprilia RS 457 Launched at Rs. 4.22 Lakh

• Gets a price cut
• Was unveiled at IBW 2026

The 2026 Aprilia RS 457 has been launched in India at Rs. 4.22 lakh, ex-showroom. What’s notable is that this price is lower than the post GST 2.0 price of Rs. 4.35 lakh that the 2025 RS 457 was being sold at. This reduction makes the RS 457 more competitive again.

The RS 457 GP Replica variant, meanwhile, is priced at Rs. 4.37 lakh and gets a bi-directional quickshifter as standard.

In terms of design, the RS 457 carries Aprilia’s signature supersport styling. It features sharp bodywork, aggressive twin LED headlamps, sharp front fairing, and a sleek tail section. The overall look is inspired by Aprilia’s larger RS models, giving it a proper big-bike feel despite being positioned as an entry-level twin-cylinder sportbike.

Powering the Aprilia RS 457 is a 457cc, liquid-cooled, parallel-twin engine that produces around 47.6bhp and 43.5Nm. The engine is paired with a six-speed gearbox and comes with a slipper clutch.

On the features front, Aprilia has equipped the RS 457 with ride-by-wire throttle, multiple riding modes, traction control, dual-channel ABS, and a five-inch TFT display with Bluetooth connectivity. These features make it one of the most tech-loaded motorcycles in its class.
