KTM 390 Enduro R officially teased

The 390 Enduro R will run on a 21/18-inch (F/R) wheels with off-road biased tyres

The KTM 390 Enduro R made its global debut at EICMA 2024 and was subsequently showcased at the 2024 edition of India Bike Week (IBW). Now, KTM is ready to launch the 390 Enduro R in India and it has officially teased this dual-sport motorcycle on its social media handle.



For starters, KTM 390 Enduro R has the same 399cc, single-cylinder, LC4c engine as the 390 Adventure duo and the 390 Duke, producing 46hp and 39Nm, mated to a six-speed gearbox. This engine is nestled within a steel-trellis frame. Suspending this frame is a USD fork and a monoshock with 230mm of travel at both ends. This bike has a massive ground clearance of 272mm with an equally tall seat height of 890mm.



In typical off-road fashion, it runs on a 21/18-inch (F/R) wheel setup with off-road biased tyres. Braking duties are handled by an axially mounted caliper with a 285mm front disc and a 240mm rear disc with switchable dual-channel ABS. The Enduro R sports minimal bodywork and it tips the scales at 159kg— which is 7kg lower than the KTM 390 Adventure X (wet weight, no fuel).

The KTM 390 Enduro R is expected to launch soon while our review for it will go live on April 12 at 10am IST.

Auto Expo 2023: 9 new Tata Motors car, SUV launches by 2025

Tata Motors had a blockbuster showing at Auto Expo 2023, with several models on display in various states of production readiness. However, while Tata’s announcement was quite scant on details, we’ve received a bit more information from company sources, specifically around when these cars will be launched. The products are an even mix of EV and ICE products, but while the latter includes petrol and CNG models, there has been no word on further diesel development, which means the present 1.5-litre engine in the Nexon , and the Fiat-sourced 2.0 in the Harrier and Safari , will soldier on for some time. New Tata Sierra launch in 2025 with new 1.5 petrol engine Undoubtedly the biggest star at the Tata Motors stall, the second iteration of the Sierra EV concept has inched ever closer to production-ready guise. Now with four doors and an interior with conventional controls and switchgear, it’s clear this model is in its final stages of development. However, while the concept is an EV b...

Gaping air intakes round off the new-look nose. These are joined by a host of items that enhance aerodynamics, such as a wide front splitter and a lipped rear spoiler. It gets special V-spoke gold wheels – 19-inch at the front and 20-inch at the rear – shod with track-focused tyres. The M compound brakes come with red calipers, while carbon-ceramic brakes are also available. The interior broadly matches that of the M3 Compe...

Honda Amaze diesel discontinued ahead of RDE norms implementation

Honda  has officially delisted the Amaze  diesel model from its website. The compact sedan was the final diesel model in its segment that currently comprises of the Hyundai Aura , Tata Tigor and the Maruti Suzuki Dzire . Amaze diesel was available in three trims Was the only diesel automatic model in its segment Honda Amaze diesel: reason for discontinuation As we've reported before, the upcoming implementation of the Real Driving Emissions (RDE) norms in India from April 2023 is the key reason for the Amaze's diesel engine being dropped.  Upgrading diesel engines to meet the new stringent emissions regulations is expensive. This, combined with the low demand for diesel in this segment, meant that there was little business case for the Amaze diesel. Currently, Honda has only two diesel-powered models on sale in India – the  WR-V  and  5th gen City .  However, these cars, too, are slated to be axed as the brand  will cease producing diese...
