New KTM RC 200 and RC 390 Unofficial Bookings Open: According to a recent media report, some of the KTM dealerships across India have started accepting unofficial bookings for the new models of RC 200 and RC 390. As per the details available, the booking amount ranges between INR 1,000 to INR 10,000. The next-gen KTM RC 200 and RC 390 recently got leaked and they have got mixed reviews because of the not-so-proportionate design. Here are the leaked images of the new RC 200 and RC 390:
Talking about the design, the next-gen RC models feature an all-new front fascia, fuel tank, and side fairings. In terms of the hardware components, the tyres, suspension, and exhaust look more or less similar to the current-gen models.
Mechanically, the new KTM RC 200 would be equipped with the same 199.5cc, liquid-cooled, fuel-injected, single-cylinder engine, which would come mated to a 6-speed gearbox. It is expected that KTM may also tweak the engine to generate slightly more power and torque. The current-gen model is good for a maximum power of 25 HP along with a peak torque of 19.2 Nm. In terms of pricing, the new model of RC 200 is expected to get an ex-showroom price tag of around INR 2.15 lakhs.
The current-gen model of the KTM RC 390 is powered by a 373cc, liquid-cooled, fuel-injected, single-cylinder engine, which is good for 43.5 HP of maximum power and 36 Nm of peak torque. The next-gen model will come equipped with an updated engine and the torque figure may get a bump in performance as Duke 390 is good for 37Nm of torque. In terms of pricing, the new model of the RC 390 is expected to get a price tag of around INR 2.80 lakhs (ex-showroom).
