MY26 Kawasaki KLX230 launched at ₹1.99 lakh, gets a price cut of ₹1.30 lakh

In a bold move to ignite demand for its first locally produced dual-sport offering, Kawasaki India has dropped the ex-showroom price of the KLX 230 by a staggering ₹1.30 lakh. The motorcycle, originally launched at ₹3.30 lakh, is now available for just ₹1.99 lakh across Delhi showrooms. What's Changed—and What Hasn't While the sticker shock may be the headline, the mechanics remain largely familiar. The KLX 230 still houses its dependable 233 cc air-cooled, single-cylinder engine, delivering approximately 18.7 bhp at 8,000 rpm and 19 Nm of torque at 6,000 rpm, paired with a six-speed gearbox. That said, Kawasaki has tweaked a couple of components. The updated MY26 model includes revised suspension geometry—resulting in marginally reduced wheel travel—and swaps the earlier dual-channel ABS setup for a single-channel ABS system. This should be fine as customers usually prefer a single-channel system when they are out on the trails.

The KLX 230 is now produced in India, which has helped Kawasaki absorb costs and pass savings on to consumers. Kawasaki KLX 230 gets an LCD instrument cluster. Color Palette and Design Highlights Visual differentiation accompanies the pricing update. Kawasaki is offering the bike in two distinct shades—striking Lime Green and understated Battle Grey. The minimalist dual-sport aesthetic remains intact, featuring a lean frame, single-piece seat, LED lighting, and a digital LCD cluster that includes Bluetooth connectivity. Competition Heats Up With the new price tag, the KLX 230 is now in direct contention with the Hero Xpulse 210, a popular budget dual-sport in the Indian market. Presently, the Xpulse 210 hovers around the same price bracket, setting the stage for a neck-and-neck contest in the sub- ₹2 lakh segment.
