KTM has confirmed its presence at EICMA 2024 and has teased a bunch of new motorcycles it will be unveiling at the event. EICMA 2024 will be held from November 5 - 10, 2024 in Milan, Italy.
The Austrian manufacturer has confirmed that it will be unveiling the 2025 KTM 390 Adventure R and the 390 Enduro R at the event. Both bikes have been spotted testing in India several times now and are two of the hotly anticipated upcoming motorcycles in India. The KTM 390 SMC R will also be unveiled but it is a supermoto bike and is unlikely to come to our shores anytime soon. KTM has also confirmed that it will be unveiling the 990 Duke R, 2025 1390 Super Duke GT ,and the 2025 1390 Super Adventure R and S Evo. The bike maker took the wraps off the 2025 KTM 990 RC R recently, its first fully-faired, street legal, large capacity superbike in 15 years and has now confirmed that the bike will be showcased at the event.

The 2025 KTM 390 Adventure has a vertically stacked dual-LED projector headlight setup, a new trellis frame (similar to the new KTM 390 Duke), a sleeker looking tail section, and an underbelly exhaust. It gets an inverted fork with a longer wheel travel (compared to the current model) and a monoshock which is likely to be adjustable as well. The ADV is likely to get a 19-inch front and 17-inch rear wheel setup, judging by the recent spy shots.
The upcoming 390 Adventure will be powered by the new 390 Duke’s 398.63cc, single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine producing 46PS at 8,500rpm and 39Nm at 6,500rpm with a different engine tuning to better suit the ADV’s character. It is most likely to get the same TFT instrument console with Bluetooth connectivity and navigation as well. The ADV is expected to be launched by the end of 2024 or early 2025 and the price tag is expected to be around the Rs 3.80 lakh (ex-showroom) mark. It will rival the Royal Enfield Himalayan 450 and the upcoming Hero Xpulse 400.
