Aprilia Tuono 457 design patent filed, will launch soon
- Aprilia Tuono 457 will share its underpinnings with the RS 457.
Piaggio India has filed a design patent for the Tuono 457 in the Indian market. The motorcycle made its global debut at EICMA 2024 and is the street-naked version of the RS 457. Aprilia India has listed the new Tuono 457 on its website and with the design patent filed, the launch is expected to happen later this month. This model is set to be the most affordable option within the 'Tuono' lineup available for purchase. Currently, Aprilia offers the Tuono 1100 and Tuono 660 in the Indian market.
Just like the RS 457, the Tuono 457 will also be made at the brand’s Baramati plant in Maharashtra for domestic and global markets. The Aprilia Tuono 457 is built on the same platform as the Aprilia RS457. This motorcycle forgoes the fairing to achieve a lighter weight and offers a more upright and comfortable riding posture compared to the RS457. Its design is notably distinct from the larger Tuono models, featuring L-shaped LED daytime running lights and an LED headlight. The motorcycle will be offered in two colour options: red and black.
