- Gets a new Atlantic Blue paint scheme
- Mechanically unchanged
KTM has officially unveiled the 2026 390 Duke for global markets, and for the new model year, the naked streetfighter receives a fresh Atlantic Blue colour option. This new shade now sits alongside the existing Gun Metal Grey paint scheme.
The Atlantic Blue colour variant brings a noticeably more mature and premium appeal to the motorcycle. The tank extensions get a matte blue finish, while the fuel tank also sports a matte blue tone in place of the grey finish on the earlier version. It also gets a black front fender. Even the alloy wheels now receive a black finish, a departure from the signature orange finish on the previous model.
Apart from the cosmetic changes, the 2026 KTM 390 Duke also gets an improved braking setup with WP FCR4 brake callipers. Otherwise, the bike remains mechanically unchanged. It continues to use the 399cc, liquid-cooled, single-cylinder engine producing 44.38bhp and 39Nm of peak torque. The engine is paired with a six-speed gearbox along with a bi-directional quickshifter. The feature list is identical too, with the TFT colour display with Bluetooth connectivity, ride modes, cornering ABS, Launch Control, Supermoto ABS, and an LED lighting setup.
KTM aims to keep the 390 Duke visually fresh in the face of newer competition. While this is a global unveil, we hope KTM introduces this refreshed colour option soon in India.
