Design and Features of the KTM 390 Enduro R
The latest KTM 390 Enduro R takes design inspiration from the larger enduro models within KTM’s range. It features a streamlined body, eliminating excess panels in favor of a compact headlamp, an elevated beak, and a flat seat. This design choice has contributed to a kerb weight of 177 kg for the Indian variant, making it 5 kg lighter than the standard 390 Enduro R. In terms of features, the motorcycle is equipped with a 4.1-inch TFT display that includes Bluetooth connectivity, enabling functionalities such as turn-by-turn navigation and music controls. The 390 Enduro R offers two riding modes but does not include cruise control, which is available on the 390 Adventure and 390 Duke models. In KTM's lineup, the 390 Enduro R will be situated between the 390 Adventure X and the 390 Adventure S. While it does not have a direct competitor, it will face competition from the Kawasaki KLX230, which is similarly priced.Read Also: Safety First: Kia Syros Bags a Perfect Score in Bharat NCAP Crash TestsGet the latest Bollywood entertainment news, trending celebrity news, latest celebrity news, new movie reviews, latest entertainment news, latest Bollywood news, and Bollywood celebrity fashion & style updates!
