The 2025 KTM 390 Duke has been spotted at a dealership, which revealed exciting updates. The biggest addition is cruise control, a feature first seen on the 390 Adventure. KTM is bringing this premium feature to more bikes in India. Moreover, the new Gunmetal Grey colour gives the bike a fresh, aggressive look. While the engine remains unchanged, the updated model is expected to be slightly pricier than before. Deliveries will start soon, and here’s everything you need to know!
New Cruise Control Feature & Colour Scheme
For the first time, the KTM 390 Duke gets cruise control. This feature was earlier seen only on KTM’s adventure models. The cruise control system works through a rocker switch on the left handlebar, similar to the 390 Adventure. This update makes long highway rides more comfortable and effortless.
KTM has introduced a new Gunmetal Grey colour for the 2025 390 Duke. The matte grey finish is seen on the fuel tank, fenders, and rear subframe. Meanwhile, the headlamp nacelle and tank extensions get a metallic black finish. Bright orange graphics contrast with the grey, which makes the bike look sportier than ever.
Engine & Performance
The 2025 model continues to be powered by a 399.63cc, liquid-cooled, single-cylinder engine. This engine produces 45.3 bhp and 39 Nm of torque. It is paired with a six-speed gearbox and comes with a bi-directional quickshifter. Moreover, the TFT instrument cluster, dual-channel ABS, traction control, and launch control remain unchanged.
The 2025 KTM 390 Duke has not yet been officially launched. However, since it has already reached some dealerships, the launch is expected soon. KTM recently reduced the price of the 2024 model by Rs. 18,000, bringing it down to Rs. 2.95 lakh (ex-showroom). The updated 2025 model is expected to cost around Rs. 3 lakh due to the new features.
The KTM 390 Duke has always been a performance-focused streetfighter with great hardware and electronics. However, it was missing cruise control, a feature many riders wanted. Now, with this update, the 390 Duke becomes even more feature-packed.
