Both models carry forward the full performance character of the range with 41.5 PS of power, 33.5 Nm of torque, and identical wheelbase, ground clearance, technology and riding ergonomics. The KTM 390 Duke remains the sharp, aggressive, precision instrument built for spirited city riding. The KTM 390 Adventure continues to blend touring capability with genuine off-road ability.

By bringing the 390 Duke and 390 Adventure within reach of a broader customer base, KTM aims to meaningfully expand the segment and grow the community of riders who know what it truly means to be Ready to Race.
Speaking on the expansion, Manik Nangia, President, Probiking, Bajaj Auto Ltd., said: "The KTM 390 Duke and KTM 390 Adventure are among the most aspirational motorcycles in India, and this expansion is about making that aspiration a reality for more riders. The new 350cc engine variants allow us to pass on the 18% GST benefit directly to our customers, lowering the entry price to the range while preserving everything that makes these motorcycles exceptional. This is about growing the 390 community and bringing genuine KTM performance within reach of a much larger audience."
