KTM Duke 250 Updates

Tuesday, 24 January 2023 12:30 AM KTM India has just added a new paint choice for the 250 Duke, named Ebony Black, to its lineup. The Dark Galvano trim is still available, and the pricing remains unchanged. 

Saturday, 19 October 2024 06:26 AM KTM has introduced a new Ebony Black color for the 2024 250 Duke, adding to its existing color palette that includes Ceramic White, Electric Orange, and Atlantic Blue. The Ebony Black version features all blacked-out components, including the headlight, fuel tank, fenders, underbelly exhaust, and frame, with the signature orange color only visible on the tank extensions. This new color scheme is priced at Rs. 2.45 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi). I think this new color gives the bike a sleek and aggressive look that will appeal to many riders.

Sunday, 13 October 2024 07:38 PM The 2024 KTM 250 Duke now comes with two selectable ride modes - Street and Track - which can be toggled via the new TFT display. In Track mode, the displays graphics change to a more race-focused layout, showing an enlarged rev counter, lap timer, and preferred rider aid settings. This addition, along with other updates like the new switchgear and LED DRLs, makes the bike more versatile for different riding conditions. I think this feature will be a hit among riders who enjoy both street and track riding.

Saturday, 12 October 2024 03:26 PM The 2024 KTM 250 Duke has been launched in India with several significant updates, including a 5-inch TFT display with app support, Bluetooth connectivity, and navigation. The bike also features new switchgear with a 4-way menu control and boomerang-shaped LED DRLs, similar to the 390 Duke. Mechanically, the bike remains unchanged with a 248cc, single-cylinder engine producing 30.5 hp and 25 Nm of torque. I believe these updates make the 250 Duke a more competitive and feature-rich option in its segment.

Saturday, 12 October 2024 01:46 PM Honda Motorcycles and Scooters India has overtaken Hero MotoCorp in sales for the month of September, with KTM also making significant moves in the market. However, KTMs recent focus has been on updating its models, such as the 250 Duke, which suggests the company is committed to offering advanced features and technology to its customers. I believe this competitive landscape will drive innovation and better options for bike enthusiasts in India.

Thursday, 10 October 2024 02:16 PM KTM has unveiled the updated 2024 250 Duke, which now includes features inspired by the 390 Duke, such as a new 5-inch color TFT display, updated switchgear, and two ride modes - Street and Track. The bike also features a new LED headlamp and retains its 248cc, single-cylinder engine with a six-speed gearbox and bi-directional quickshifter. The price has been bumped up to Rs. 2.41 lakh (ex-showroom) due to these upgrades. I think these changes enhance the riding experience and make the bike more appealing to enthusiasts.
