- GPR250R's India launch is highly unlikely.
Aprilia has introduced the new 2021 GPR250R fully-faired motorcycle at the Xi’an Auto Expo in China. The motorcycle has been updated with a slew of major changes inside out. It continues to rival the likes of KTM RC 390, and the Yamaha YZF-R3 supersport bikes.
On the outside, the motorcycle features a fairly sharper body with revamped panels for refreshed looks. From some angles, the bike appears to have taken inspiration from the bigger RSV4 sibling.

It sports a sharper three-piece headlamp with air intakes and winglet-like panels. Among the revamped features list include its semi-digital instrument cluster with a new colour TFT display.
At the heart of the motorcycle sits a 250cc, single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine that delivers 27.5bhp of power and 21.5Nm of torque. The engine comes fitted with a six-speed transmission. It also gets a slipper clutch. With the latest change, the overall power output has been upped marginally.
The bike features a perimeter frame and rolls on 17-inch alloy wheels on both ends. For suspension, the motorcycle uses an upside-down front fork paired with a monoshock at the rear. The safety kit on the motorcycle includes a dual-channel ABS setup.
