KTM 390 Adventure X Updated With Cruise Control And Riding Modes In India
KTM has introduced the updated version of the KTM 390 Adventure X with advanced features to further bolster the sale of the model launched in India in February. Kraftfahrzeuge Trunkenpolz Mattighofen, popularly known as KTM, has launched an updated version of the 390 Adventure X, packed with advanced features aimed at enhancing the riding experience. The latest iteration now comes equipped with cruise control, cornering traction control, and cornering ABS, along with three riding modes – Street, Rain, and Off-road. Although the bike's overall design remains the same as the model introduced in India in February 2025, the major upgrades lie in its functionality. The refreshed 390 Adventure X now features new switchgear, including a dedicated button for cruise control and a toggle switch to adjust the cruising speed. Under the hood, the motorcycle continues to sport the 399cc, liquid-cooled, single-cylinder engine, delivering 45 BHP and 39 Nm of torque. It is mated to a 6-speed gearbox, ensuring the same performance KTM fans have come to expect. Equipped with a telescopic fork in the front and a mono-shock in the rear, the updated 390 Adventure X rides on 19-inch front and 17-inch rear alloy wheels wrapped in dual-purpose tyres and has disc brakes at both ends in its braking system. The KTM 390 Adventure X update will maintain the on-road characteristics of the previous model while handling off-road conditions better. The addition of different riding modes offers bike riders an enhanced experience, providing various throttle maps depending on the rider's needs. The riders can expect better control in different conditions and on different types of terrains. KTM is also offering a switchgear from the standard model to switch between modes. Bike riders will get the cruise control button and can also use the toggle switch for speed control. Indian bike riders, who have been enjoying the KTM 390 Adventure X since the start of the year, can expect a pocket-friendly switch to the enhanced version of the model that is available at a starting price of Rs 3.03 lakh (ex-showroom), only Rs 12,000 higher than the previous version. When launched in February, the bike came with an initial price of Rs 2.91 lakhs (ex-showroom). Through the upgraded model, KTM India is hoping to solidify its presence in the Indian auto market scene and rival some of the other leading manufacturing brands available in the country. view comments First Published: July 10, 2025, 11:39 IST Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

KTM's ADV portfolio in India introduces two distinct variants
KTM strengthens its ADV presence in India with a feature-packed 390 Adventure X and the debut of the hardcore, global-spec Enduro R for serious off-roaders. KTM has reinforced its middleweight ADV portfolio in India with the introduction of two distinct offerings — the updated KTM 390 Adventure X and the globally-spec KTM 390 Adventure Enduro R. While the former caters to long-distance touring enthusiasts now seeking more value and tech, the latter is purpose-built for riders who demand uncompromised off-road performance, rooted in Dakar DNA. The KTM 390 Adventure X continues to be the accessible gateway into KTM's adventure series, but now gets a significant electronics upgrade. Cruise control with both cruise and speed limiter modes is now standard. The addition of multiple ride modes — Street, Rain, and Off-road — enhances adaptability in changing conditions. Also on board is cornering ABS for added braking confidence mid-lean, and Motorcycle Traction Control (MTC), which improves stability across diverse surfaces. The highlight of this launch, however, is the KTM 390 Adventure Enduro R, offered in its global-spec trim. Designed for riders seeking serious trail capability, the Enduro R features a split-trellis frame with long-travel suspension, including a 43-mm inverted telescopic fork up front and a preload-adjustable monoshock at the rear, both offering 230 mm of travel. The 21-inch front and 18-inch rear spoke wheels are shod with aggressive Karoo 4 rubber for optimum grip in technical terrain. Powering the Enduro R is a 398.63 cc, liquid-cooled, single-cylinder engine that delivers 46 PS at 8500 rpm and 39 Nm of torque at 6500 rpm. The six-speed gearbox is equipped with a quickshifter for clutchless shifts, and the electronics suite includes off-road ABS, traction control, and a minimal TFT dashboard with turn-by-turn navigation. With a dry weight of 159.2 kg and 277 mm of ground clearance, it is clear that the Enduro R prioritises capability over comfort. A high saddle height of 895 mm reinforces its hardcore focus. Both models are now available across KTM showrooms in India. The updated KTM 390 Adventure X is priced at ₹3,03,125, while the international-spec KTM 390 Adventure Enduro R commands ₹3,53,825.
