There is no hiding the fact that KTM is working on a new generation of motorcycles. The new generation of the 390 Adventure is the motorcycle that most people are waiting eagerly. Test mules of the new motorcycles are being tested on our Indian roads. It is expected that the 2025 390 Adventure will make its way to the Indian market before the year ends. Now, KTM has showcased the motorcycle at their 2024 KTM Adventure Rally in South Dakota. The motorcycle will be officially unveiled at EICMA.

The new 390 Adventure will come with comprehensive upgrades. The current 373 cc engine will be replaced with a new 399 cc unit that is already doing duty on the 390 Duke. The power figures are expected to be around 45 bhp and 39 Nm. The gearbox will be a 6-speed unit along with a slip and assist clutch and a bi-directional quickshifter. It can be expected that the gearing will be a bit tweaked.

In terms of design, the new 390 Adventure takes inspiration from the larger ADVs that KTM sells in the global market.

From the image, we can see that there would be an all-new design in place that is inspired by the larger KTM adventure motorcycles. There is a vertically stacked projector headlamp along with a boomerang LED Daytime Running Lamp and a half fairing. There is also a beak-like mudguard that is found on most adventure motorcycles. Along with it, there is a windscreen to protect the rider from windblast.

As of now, it is not confirmed what tyre sizes will the new 390 Adventure use. However, there could be multiple models on offer with different tyre sizes to cater to different customers. For instance, there could be an offroad version with a 21-inch front wheel and a 19-inch front wheel that could be for highway touring.

The model will get dual-channel ABS with the supermoto feature. The TFT display with smartphone connectivity is likely to be carried over on the new 390 Adventure. There would also be traction control and launch control on offer.
