Aprilia has unveiled the 2025 Aprilia Tuareg Rally, a production version of the bike that won the Africa Eco Race and the Italian Motorally Championship. This model features a new engine map for quicker throttle response, linear-rate springs for better off-road control, and a dedicated SC Project exhaust system. It also includes heavy-duty spoked wheels, a high front fender, and a thicker aluminum skid plate. I think this bike is a game-changer for off-road enthusiasts.

The 2025 Aprilia Tuareg Rally benefits from technical collaboration with the Guareschi brothers GCorse and input from Aprilia rider Jacopo Cerutti. The bike features Kayaba suspension with linear-rate springs, a titanium silencer, and a new chain guide. The Tuareg Rally is lighter than the standard model, weighing 439 lb, and has a distinct Rally race replica color scheme. I believe the attention to detail here will make it a favorite among rally fans.

Alongside the Tuareg Rally, Aprilia has updated the standard Tuareg 660 for 2025. The updates include larger 52mm throttle bodies, a new rare-earth generator for better acceleration, and a revised headlight cluster design. The standard model will be available in new colors, Tornado Green and Hailstorm White, both with a red-painted frame. I think these updates will keep the Tuareg competitive in the midsize adventure bike market.

Aprilias accessories catalog for the Tuareg has been expanded to include features from the Tuareg Rally, such as heavy-duty spoked wheels, a reinforced skid plate, and a chain guide. Other new accessories include a tire-pressure monitoring system and a heated comfort seat available in three different heights. This is great news for owners looking to customize their bikes.

The 2024 Aprilia Tuareg 660 is priced at $12,299, with the Dakar Podium and Indaco Tagelmust liveries costing $400 more. The bike features a DOHC, liquid-cooled 659cc parallel-twin engine producing 80 hp and 51.6 lb-ft of torque. It also has fully adjustable Kayaba suspension and Brembo brakes. I think the performance justifies the premium price.

The Aprilia Tuareg 660 has been praised for its off-road capabilities, thanks to its modified engine powerband and APRC rider electronics package. The bike includes an off-road mode with less traction control and engine-braking, and the option to disable rear brake ABS. This makes it a strong contender in the midsize adventure bike category.

Aprilia started as an off-road powerhouse in the mid-70s, and the Tuareg 660 continues this legacy. The bikes chassis combines steel tubing with cast swingarm pivot sections, and it features a 43mm Kayaba fork and a single rear Kayaba shock. I believe this heritage and design make the Tuareg 660 a reliable choice for off-road enthusiasts.

The Aprilia Tuareg 660 is available in several liveries, including Atreides Black, Canyon Sand, Acid Gold, and Martian Red. The bikes design includes a distinctive horizontally arranged triple headlamp and a robust aluminum swingarm. I think the design is both functional and visually appealing.

The Tuareg 660 features a wet, multiplate slipper clutch and a six-speed transmission with chain final drive. The bike also includes dual 300mm discs with Brembo two-piston slider calipers at the front and a 260mm disc with a single-piston slider caliper at the rear. This setup provides strong braking performance.

Aprilia has emphasized the Tuareg 660s on-road manners, despite its strong off-road capabilities. The bikes suspension travel and ground clearance make it versatile for both on-road and off-road use. I think this balance is a key selling point for adventure bike enthusiasts.
