Aprilia Tuono 457 Teased Ahead of its Global Unveil

Quick News Highlights:

Similar headlight as the bigger Aprilia’s
The instrument console looks similar to the Aprilia RS 457
Likely to be priced at around Rs 4 lakh (ex-showroom) mark

Aprilia Tuono 457 has been teased by the Italian manufacturer for the first time-ever. We can see a glimpse of the bike’s headlight, front design and meter console in the teaser.

The teaser starts by showcasing the headlight DRLs (daytime running lights) of the upcoming Aprilia Tuono 457, revealing its aggressive front design and the sharp headlights, inspired from the bigger Aprilia bikes. There are winglets under the headlight as well. We can also see the inverted fork. We can also see the instrument console on the top of the headlight and a few bits of the sharp fuel tank and a little bit of the front fender as well. There are also a few shots which reveal the radiator shrouds on the sides. One of the shots also reveals a blurry glimpse of the side design. But it doesn't reveal any solid info.

The teaser also features a blurry shot of the cockpit. Although the digital instrument console isn’t very clear it seems to be the same as the Aprilia RS 457 which includes smartphone connectivity via Bluetooth as optional. Similar to its faired sibling, the Tuono 457 should get a ride-by-wire throttle, 3 ride modes, 3 levels of traction control that can be switched off, and a bi-directional quickshifter. The teaser reveals its single-piece handlebar.

The Tuono 457 will share the same 457cc, liquid-cooled, parallel-twin engine from the Aprilia RS 457 that makes 46.7PS at 9,400rpm and 43.5Nm at 6,700rpm, paired with a six-speed gearbox and a slip and assist clutch.

Previously, the bike was spied but with a circular headlight on the test mule. It revealed that the Tuono 457 gets a tubular frame, with a swingarm different from the one on the RS 457. The naked Aprilia test mule featured an inverted front fork and an off-set monoshock at the back.

The Aprilia Tuono 457 is highly likely to be unveiled at the EICMA 2024, in Milan, Italy. In India, the naked 457cc bike is likely to be priced just below the Aprilia RS 457, at around the Rs 4 lakh (ex-showroom) mark.
