- Costs Rs. 2.30 lakh, ex-showroom
- It was launched at Rs. 2.45 lakh last year
KTM India increased the price of the 250 Duke by approximately Rs. 5,000 earlier this month. The motorcycle is now pegged at Rs. 2.30 lakh, ex-showroom, Delhi. After the 2025 edition was launched in October last year with a price tag of Rs. 2.45 lakh, the company announced a year-end discount of Rs. 20,000 in December, which was supposed to be valid till the end of January 2025. However, it seems the discounted price was applicable on the bike until last month, before KTM marginally increased it.
The 250 Duke is one of the highest-selling offerings in KTM’s India portfolio. While it looks almost identical to the bigger 390 Duke, the 250 is around Rs. 67,000 more affordable. The latter offers less tech and performance but isn’t low on excitement and thrill by any means. It is powered by a new 248.7cc, liquid-cooled engine, which produces 30.57bhp and 25Nm and continues to be mated to a six-speed gearbox.
Similarly, it is underpinned by an all-new steel trellis frame that joins an offset monoshock, curved swingarm, new 17-inch alloys, and new brakes, all of which are lighter. On the feature front, there’s a ride-by-wire throttle, selectable ride modes, slipper clutch, and a quick shifter. The instrument cluster is a five-inch colour TFT screen unit which is Bluetooth-enabled and offers turn-by-turn navigation.
The KTM 250 Duke is available in four colour options – Ebony Black, Black and Blue, Ceramic White, and Electronic Orange.
