New Delhi, January 8:
KTM has expanded its motorcycle portfolio in India with the launch of the RC 160, priced at ₹1.85 lakh (ex-showroom), aiming to strengthen its presence in the entry-level supersport segment. The new RC 160 carries KTM’s signature aggressive design language, featuring sharp bodywork, a full-fairing setup and a sporty riding posture that targets young enthusiasts. With this launch, KTM directly takes on established rivals such as the Yamaha R15, which has long dominated the segment.
The RC 160 is expected to offer a refined balance of performance and everyday usability, appealing to riders looking for a sporty yet practical motorcycle. Industry experts believe the pricing and brand appeal could help KTM attract customers seeking an alternative to existing models in the segment. The launch further intensifies competition in the 150–160cc category, as manufacturers continue to introduce feature-rich motorcycles to capture the growing demand among performance-focused commuters.
