Husqvarna Svartpilen 401 has a fuel tank capacity of 18 litres litres. Compare the fuel tank capacity of Svartpilen 401 with other similar bikes at autoX.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">The Husqvarna Svartpilen 401 is a stylish scrambler
        bike boasting modern classic design. It features full LED lighting, a five-inch
        TFT display, traction control, ABS, and a bi-directional quickshifter. The
        Svartpilen 401 competes with the KTM 390 Duke and the Yezdi Scrambler in the
        bold, powerful scrambler segment.</p>

<p>Husqvarna has revealed a concept version of the Vitpilen 801 naked bike, featuring weight reduction through carbon fibre components and custom parts focused on aerodynamics and performance. The bike likely retains the 799cc parallel-twin engine from the KTM 790, delivering 104bhp and 88Nm, with the performance expected to match the standard Vitpilen model. Designed for riders prioritising functionality and innovation, the Vitpilen 801 concept emphasises Husqvarna's commitment to high-performance naked bikes with advanced engineering.</p>

<h2>Husqvarna Vitpilen 801 Aero Concept: Details</h2>

<p>This street bike introduces upgrades that increase its speed, power, and functionality. Stock parts, including the wheels and paint scheme, have been replaced with custom components. Carbon fibre elements reduce kerb weight, and a new exhaust system enhances performance.</p>

<p><img alt="Husqvarna Vitpilen 801 Aero Concept 1 " height="720" src="/uploads/2024/12/Husqvarna-Vitpilen-801-Aero-Concept-1-.jpg" width="1280" /></p>

<p>A custom full system replaces the original exhaust with white-painted header pipes routed differently from the standard model. This setup aims to increase top-end horsepower while adjusting low-end torque. The pipes end in a centrally mounted under-seat silencer integrated into the rear cowl, replacing the rear light cluster.</p>

<p>The braking system includes a Brembo GP4 unit for enhanced performance. The rear brake uses a disc plate typically seen in racing bikes to reduce drag.</p>

<p>Husqvarna is expected to reveal the production version of this bike in 2025.</p>

Husqvarna Vitpilen 801 Aero Concept Revealed with Bespoke Aerodynamic Upgrades

A custom full system replaces the original exhaust of the Husqvarna Vitpilen 801 with white-painted header pipes routed differently from the standard model.

<p><strong>autoX Awards 2024: </strong><a href="https://www.autox.com/new-bikes/husqvarna/">Husqvarna motorcycles</a> are known for their Swedish minimalism and stunning design, and I’ll admit, I was a big fan of the smaller Svartpilen 250. While it was a beauty, it wasn’t without its flaws. The new Svartpilen 401, however, seems to address many of those issues, starting with, perhaps, one of the most significant ones – road presence. The 401 is larger in every dimension, offering much more space and a more substantial look on the road.</p>

<p>In terms of design, the rear of the bike has shifted from the custom-styled tail to a more conventional look. Although the taillight design remains the same, the indicators and number plate housing have moved to a standard mounting point, rather than being attached to the tyre hugger as before. The 401 now also features larger grab rails, and the fuel tank panel no longer extends as dramatically under the rider’s seat. The uniquely shaped fuel tank is also wider, enhancing its visual impact. While the road presence has certainly improved, I’m not entirely convinced that it is as stylish as the original.</p>

<p><img alt="Husqvarna Svartpilen 401 Wheelie" src="/uploads/2024/11/Husqvarna-Svartpilen-401-2.jpg" /></p>

<p>Despite its knobby-looking tyres, the Svartpilen is unmistakably a street bike with the flair of a scrambler. It is powered by KTM 390 Duke’s renowned 399cc liquid-cooled engine. We’ve long held that this motor is the most thrilling in its class, and that engaging drivetrain continues to be the highlight here, even if the mid-range exhibits a bit of vibration. Husqvarna has also upgraded the previous round instrument cluster for the square-shaped TFT display from the Duke but with a custom graphic design that looks excellent. It comes equipped with features like traction control and SuperMoto ABS, though it misses out on the IMU found on the <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-bikes/ktm/">KTM</a>.</p>

<p>With India’s 400cc segment becoming increasingly competitive, the Husqvarna Svartpilen 401 still manages to stand out. It doesn’t even feel like it is competing in the same space – in fact, it seems to be in a league of its own, with a unique character that’s sure to resonate with riders.</p>

autoX Awards 2024: Husqvarna Svartpilen 401 Performance, Quality and Value for Money Ranked

autoX Awards 2024: With India’s 400cc segment becoming increasingly competitive, the Husqvarna Svartpilen 401 still manages to stand out. It doesn’t even feel like it is competing in the same space – in fact, it seems to be in a league of its own, with a unique character.

<p><a href="https://www.autox.com/new-bikes/husqvarna/">Husqvarna</a> has taken the wraps off the all-new Vitpilen 801, which is the company's second motorcycle to be based on the KTM 790 Duke platform after the&nbsp;Husqvarna Svartpilen 801. Offered in two colour options (yellow and silver), the Husqvarna Vitpilen 801 is built to provide what Husqvarna says is an&nbsp;engaging riding experience, made possible by a&nbsp;799cc parallel-twin liquid-cooled engine and state-of-the-art electronic rider aids.</p>

<p>The parallel-twin engine makes&nbsp;103.5bhp at 9,250rpm and&nbsp;87Nm of peak torque at 8,000rpm, the same as the&nbsp;Svartpilen 801. It is mated to a 6-speed gearbox, and a&nbsp;bidirectional 'Easy Shift'&nbsp;quickshifter is available as an option. The chassis is a&nbsp;tubular steel unit,&nbsp;suspended by upside-down front forks (with 140mm travel) and a rear monoshock (with 150mm travel). Both are adjustable WP units. Braking duties are taken care of by dual 300mm discs with&nbsp;radially-mounted four-piston callipers at the front, and a single 240mm disc with a&nbsp;two-piston calliper at the rear. J.Juan has supplied the brake system, while the anti-lock braking system (ABS) is Bosch's.&nbsp;</p>

<h2>Husqvarna Vitpilen 801: Design</h2>

<p>The&nbsp;Husqvarna Vitpilen 801 gets a roadster-inspired design. It has a new bi-LED projector headlight with an oval-shaped LED daytime running lamp. While the side panels and the tail section appear to be influenced by the Svartpilen 801, the front fenders and radiator shrouds look different. The bike comes&nbsp;with 17-inch cast alloy wheels fitted with Michelin Road 6 tyres. While the new bike's handlebars are positioned lower, the footpegs are in the same position as the&nbsp;Svartpilen 801.&nbsp;</p>

<h2>Husqvarna Vitpilen 801: Features, Electronic Aids</h2>

<p>The design is complemented by a 5.0-inch TFT display with Bluetooth connectivity and turn-by-turn navigation. Electronic aids include&nbsp;cornering-sensitive traction control, cornering ABS, ride-by-wire, and three ride modes (Street, Rain, Sport). The Dynamic mode is offered as an optional extra, along with a 10-level&nbsp;adjustable rear wheel slip and&nbsp;a switchable Supermoto ABS mode. Other optional bits include cruise control and anti-wheelie control.</p>

<h2>Husqvarna Vitpilen 801: Dimensions, Weight</h2>

<p>The&nbsp;Husqvarna Vitpilen 801 sits 820mm above the ground and has a ground clearance of 170mm. The weight (without fuel) is 180kg, while the fuel tank capacity is rated for 14 litres.</p>

<p>In the international market, the vehicle takes on the Triumph Street Triple R and the KTM 890 Duke.&nbsp;</p>


Husqvarna Vitpilen 801 Unveiled Globally, Gets KTM 790 Duke Engine, Bi-LED projector headlamp and More

The Husqvarna Vitpilen 801 uses a 799cc parallel-twin liquid-cooled engine rated for 103.5bhp at 9,250rpm and 87Nm of peak torque at 8,000rpm, the same as the Svartpilen 801.

<p><a href="https://www.autox.com/new-bikes/husqvarna/">Husqvarna</a> has released a teaser video of its new Vitpilen 801. It took to Meta's Instagram platform to give us an idea of what to expect from the upcoming Vitpilen 801, which will debut&nbsp;globally in a production-spec guise on October 2, 2024. This will be Husqvarna's second model to be based on&nbsp;the KTM 790 Duke platform after the&nbsp;2024&nbsp;Svartpilen 801. The latter made its global debut in March 2024,&nbsp;taking&nbsp;the place of the single-cylinder Svartpilen 701.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Coming back to the&nbsp;Vitpilen 801, the model is expected to follow a cafe racer-like design while sharing some elements with its sibling, the&nbsp;Svartpilen 801. The teaser video reveals a new LED projector headlamp with an oval-shaped LED daytime running lamp around it. The tank extensions are quite sharp, while the side panels and the tail section appear to be influenced by the Svartpilen 801. Also, we expect the upcoming bike to feature lower handlebars and a lower-set headlamp&nbsp;compared to its sibling.&nbsp;</p>

<h2>Husqvarna Vitpilen 801: Powertrain</h2>

<p>Built on the KTM 790 Duke platform, the&nbsp;Husqvarna Vitpilen 801 will get the same&nbsp;799cc, parallel-twin, liquid-cooled engine as the 2024&nbsp;Husqvarna Svartpilen 801. Mated to a 6-speed gearbox, the engine develops&nbsp;103.5bhp at 9,250rpm and&nbsp;87Nm of peak torque at 8,000rpm in the Svartpilen 801.</p>

<h2>Husqvarna Vitpilen 801: Hardware</h2>

<p>The&nbsp;Husqvarna Vitpilen 801 will likely employ a&nbsp;tubular chassis, suspended by&nbsp;upside-down front forks and a rear monoshock, both adjustable WP units. While the&nbsp;Svartpilen 801 comes with&nbsp;dual-purpose Pirelli MT60RS rubber wrapped around 17-inch wheels,&nbsp;we expect the Vitpilen 801 to offer more street-focused tyres.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Other expected bits include all-LED lighting, traction control, cornering ABS, ride modes, a quickshifter, and a 5.0-inch TFT display with turn-by-turn navigation. While yet to be made official, the&nbsp;chances&nbsp;of the Husqvarna&nbsp;Vitpilen 801 arriving on the Indian market&nbsp;seem slim.</p>


Husqvarna Vitpilen 801 to Debut Globally on October 2, Teased with New Headlamp Design and More

Husqvarna has released a teaser video of its new Vitpilen 801 ahead of its global debut on October 2, 2024. The upcoming Husqvarna Vitpilen 801 will get the same 799cc, parallel-twin, liquid-cooled engine as the 2024 Husqvarna Svartpilen 801.

<p>The <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-bikes/royal-enfield/guerrilla-450/">Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450</a> is new in the 400cc segment, challenging the Triumph Speed 400, Harley-Davidson X440, Hero Mavrick 440, and the Husqvarna Svartpilen 401. It is a retro-styled roadster, which offers a modern, liquid-cooled motor and a dynamic chassis. It is positioned as a reasonable and city-friendly alternative to the Himalayan 450, with which it shares the powertrain. Priced from&nbsp;Rs 2.39 lakh to Rs 2.54 lakh (introductory prices, ex-showroom), the&nbsp;Guerrilla 450 is available in three variants&nbsp;–&nbsp;Analogue, Dash, and Flash. Royal Enfield allows potential buyers to choose from a variety of exciting colours: Playa Black,&nbsp;Smoke Silver,&nbsp;Gold Dip, Brava Blue, and Yellow Ribbon.&nbsp;</p>

<p>However,&nbsp;for those seeking something with the ingredients of both a roadster and an adventure tourer, the new Svartpilen 401 from Husqvarna could be an option to go for. Positioned as a scrambler, the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.autox.com/new-bikes/husqvarna/svartpilen-401/">Husqvarna&nbsp;Svartpilen 401</a> is a neo-retro product with a rugged build. Based on the Gen 3 KTM 390 Duke, the 2024&nbsp;Svartpilen 401 carries a price tag of Rs 2.92 lakh (ex-showroom), making it about Rs 38,000 more expensive than the top-spec variant of the Guerrilla 450. To help you understand which option is right for you, here is a comparison between the&nbsp;Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 and the&nbsp;Husqvarna Svartpilen 401.&nbsp;</p>

<p><img alt="Husqvarna Svartpilen 401 Stand View" height="720" src="/uploads/2024/02/Husqvarna-Svartpilen-401-Stand-View.jpg" width="1280" /></p>

<h2>Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 vs Husqvarna Svartpilen 401: Engine</h2>

<p>The&nbsp;Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 offers customers a&nbsp;452cc&nbsp;single-cylinder&nbsp;liquid-cooled engine paired with a 6-speed gearbox. The setup is good for&nbsp;39.5bhp at 8,000rpm and 40Nm of peak torque at 5,500rpm. The engine in the&nbsp;Husqvarna Svartpilen 401 is a&nbsp;399cc single-cylinder liquid-cooled unit sourced from the 390 Duke. Despite&nbsp;being a smaller-displacement motorcycle, the Svartpilen 401&nbsp;develops more power than the Guerrilla 450. The 399cc engine is rated for 45bhp at 9,000rpm and 39Nm at 7,000rpm. This bike also employs a 6-speed gearbox.&nbsp;</p>

<h2>Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 vs Husqvarna Svartpilen 401: Suspension, Brakes, Wheels</h2>

<p><img alt="Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 Flash " src="/uploads/2024/07/Royal-Enfield-Guerrilla-450-Flash-res-.jpg" style="width: 1280px; height: 720px;" /></p>

<p>The Guerrilla 450&nbsp;roadster uses a steel tubular&nbsp;twin-spar frame, whereas&nbsp;the&nbsp;Svartpilen 401 features a steel trellis frame. Though&nbsp;the Guerrilla uses a simpler telescopic fork at the front, the telescopic unit&nbsp;is on par with an upside-down fork on the Svartpilen 401. The rear suspension is the same for both bikes&nbsp;–&nbsp;mono-shock.&nbsp;The&nbsp;Svartpilen 401 offers adjustability at both ends, whereas the Guerrilla 450 comes with a preload-adjustable rear suspension system.</p>

<p>The braking setup on the&nbsp;Guerrilla 450 includes a 270mm rear disc, which is bigger than the&nbsp;240mm disc used by the Svartpilen 401. Nevertheless,&nbsp;the latter has a bigger 320mm front disc with a radial calliper compared to&nbsp;a 310mm front disc with an axial calliper offered on the Guerrilla 450.&nbsp;Both bikes have dual-channel ABS.&nbsp;</p>

<p><img alt="Husqvarna Svartpilen 401 " src="/uploads/2024/02/Husqvarna-Svartpilen-401-Motion.jpg" style="width: 1280px; height: 720px;" /></p>

<p>The&nbsp;Guerrilla 450 rolls on 120/70 front and 160/60 rear tubeless CEAT tyres with 17-inch alloy wheels at both ends, whereas the&nbsp;Husqvarna Svartpilen 401 sports 17-inch spoked wheels&nbsp;wrapped in&nbsp;110/70 front and 150/60 rear tubed&nbsp;tyres.</p>

<h2>Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 vs Husqvarna Svartpilen 401: Dimensions</h2>

<p>Tipping the scale&nbsp;at 185kg, the&nbsp;Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 weighs&nbsp;more than the Svartpilen 401 (171.2kg). It even has a longer wheelbase, standing at 1,440mm. In comparison, the&nbsp;Svartpilen 401 gets a 1,368mm long wheelbase.</p>

<p>As for the seat height, the new Royal Enfield should be more accessible for shorter riders, thanks to its&nbsp;lower&nbsp;seat height, measuring 780mm. Though the Svartpilen 401 has a taller ground clearance of 177mm, its seat height of 820mm might be a concern for some.&nbsp;</p>

<h2>Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 vs Husqvarna Svartpilen 401: Features</h2>

<p><img alt="Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 Speedometer" src="/uploads/2024/07/Royal-Enfield-Guerrilla-450-IC.jpg" style="width: 1280px; height: 720px;" /></p>

<p>As far as features are concerned, the&nbsp;Guerrilla 450 gets two kinds of instrumentation&nbsp;– a&nbsp;digi-analogue display with a Tripper navigation pod for the&nbsp;lower-spec variants, and a&nbsp;TFT&nbsp;instrument console with turn-by-turn navigation, SMS and call alerts for the higher-spec variants. On the other hand, the&nbsp;Svartpilen 401 boasts of a&nbsp;TFT display borrowed from the 390 Duke.&nbsp;</p>

Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 vs Husqvarna Svartpilen 401 Spec Comparison: Which One Should You Buy?

We draw a comparison between the Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 and the Husqvarna Svartpilen 401 to help you understand which option is right for you.

<p>If you are looking to buy&nbsp;a KTM or a Husqvarna, we have&nbsp;some good news for you. A&nbsp;five-year warranty is now available for all KTM and Husqvarna motorcycles bought starting on April 1, 2024, according to KTM India. The package&nbsp;includes a two-year standard warranty for up to 30,000 kilometres and an additional three-year extended warranty for up to 45,000 kilometres, whichever is first. For the uninitiated, a&nbsp;standard warranty&nbsp;of two years was originally provided by the bikemaker. It is important to note that all this will be available for no additional cost.&nbsp;A wide range of&nbsp;parts, labour charges, and replacements related to warranty-eligible repairs are covered under the extended warranty. A&nbsp;complimentary one-year RSA (roadside assistance) package is being provided&nbsp;by KTM and Husqvarna in addition to the extended warranty. The benefits&nbsp;of this package come in the form of&nbsp;on-site maintenance, safe towing, round-the-clock help, and assistance with flat tyres.</p>

<h2>The New 5-Year Warranty Package</h2>

<p>When a part or component fails, having a long warranty coverage comes in handy. There may be a mechanical or electrical fault with the motorcycle. Leaky gaskets, radiator fans, and other issues have existed in the past. The owner may rest easy knowing that their warranty will take care of this and replace any damaged parts with new ones at no cost to them. This warranty package even covers the labour charges necessary to complete the repairs. Owners must make&nbsp;sure that their motorcycles are serviced at the prescribed intervals, regardless of the number of days or kilometers covered, to receive warranty coverage. In the owner's manual, the same information is always mentioned.</p>

<h2>KTM and Husqvarna India Lineup</h2>

<p><img alt="Husqvarna Svartpilen 401 Stand View" height="720" src="/uploads/2024/04/Husqvarna-Svartpilen-401-Stand-View.jpg" width="1280" /></p>

<p>The model lineup of KTM India includes the Duke series, which spans from 125 Duke to 390 Duke, the Adventure lineup, which spans from 250 Adventure to <a href="https://www.autox.com/news/bike-news/2025-ktm-390-adventure-spied-testing-in-india-to-get-dakar-inspired-rally-appearance-116137/">390 Adventure</a>, and the Sports lineup, which spans from <a href="https://www.autox.com/news/bike-news/2024-ktm-rc-adventure-range-launched-in-india-with-new-colour-options-116373/">RC 125</a> to RC GP. On the other hand,&nbsp;Husqvarna offers the Vitpilen 250 and <a href="https://www.autox.com/reviews/bike-reviews/2024-husqvarna-svartpilen-401-review-ktm-390-duke-in-swedes-clothing-116083/">Svartpilen 401</a> motorcycles in India.</p>

<h2>2024 KTM 390 Adventure Variants Spotted</h2>

<p>In other news, the standard 2025 <a href="https://www.autox.com/news/bike-news/2024-ktm-390-adventure-variants-spotted-together-ahead-of-india-launch-116677/">KTM 390 Adventure was recently&nbsp;spied&nbsp;testing</a> alongside an Enduro variant.&nbsp;The latter&nbsp;is a&nbsp;more affordable and off-road-oriented version of the regular ADV. Based on the spy&nbsp;images, the 390 Enduro will have a single-piece LED headlamp setup without a windscreen, while the standard&nbsp;model seen next to the Enduro model will have dual projectors stacked vertically with signature LED daytime running lights, sleek LED turn indicators, and sharp tank extensions. In addition, the standard ADV&nbsp;will probably have a taller transparent windscreen than the outgoing version.</p>

<p>The next-generation KTM 390 Adventure will be powered by a 399cc single-cylinder liquid-cooled engine that is additionally employed in the <a href="https://www.autox.com/reviews/bike-reviews/ktm-390-duke-first-ride-review-great-balls-of-fire-114619/">KTM 390 Duke</a>. The motor produces 45bhp&nbsp;and 39Nm of peak torque when paired with a six-speed transmission.&nbsp;</p>


KTM, Husqvarna Bikes in India to Get 5-Year Extended Warranty For Free

KTM is offering a complimentary one-year RSA (roadside assistance) package in addition to the extended warranty. The benefits of this scheme come in the form of on-site maintenance, safe towing, round-the-clock help, and assistance with flat tyres.

<p>Husqvarna launched&nbsp;the Svartpilen 401 in India this January for Rs 2.92 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi). At that&nbsp;time, the bike's premium Pirelli Scorpion Rally STR dual-purpose tyres were one of its main selling points. Sadly, the bike has now swapped its high-end Pirelli STRs for local Apollo tyres. While Husqvarna is yet to make a formal announcement, the units of the Svartpilen 401 reaching approved KTM/Husqvarna outlets with Apollo tyres give the nod to the change. According to market reports, Husqvarna's current move is prompted by a recent government rule that bans OEMs from importing tyres when a locally manufactured substitute in the same size is available. This action aims to help the local tyre&nbsp;makers and support the Make-in-India campaign. However, it is important to note that the current ban on importing tyres only applies to bike manufacturers, not dealers. Customers can buy Pirelli Scorpion Rally STR tyres from tyre dealers, which will incur additional costs. Let's take a quick look at other details of Husqvarna's street bike in more detail.</p>

<h2>Husqvarna Svartpilen 401: Engine and Hardware</h2>

<p>The <a href="https://www.autox.com/reviews/bike-reviews/2024-husqvarna-svartpilen-401-review-ktm-390-duke-in-swedes-clothing-116083/">Svartpilen 401</a> features a 399cc liquid-cooled DOHC single-cylinder engine, similar to the KTM 390 Duke. The setup produces 44bhp peak power at 9000rpm and 39Nm peak torque at 7000rpm, 500rpm more than the 390 Duke. The motorcycle incorporates a six-speed transmission, a slip-and-assist clutch, and a quickshifter.</p>

<p>The bike's hardware is made up of 320mm front and 240mm dual-channel ABS rear discs, adjustable WP Apex USD front forks, and an adjustable WP Apex monoshock. The Svartpilen 401 boasts a 1368mm wheelbase, 177mm ground clearance, and an 820mm seat height. It weighs&nbsp;171.2 kg and boasts a 13-litre&nbsp;fuel tank.</p>

<h2>Husqvarna Svartpilen 401: Features Onboard&nbsp;</h2>

<p>The motorcycle has traction control, a SuperMoto ABS mode that disables the ABS on the back wheel, and a <a href="https://www.autox.com/exclusive-stories/volkswagen-24-hour-endurance-run-full-throttle-116517/">ride-by-wire throttle</a>, among other features. Additionally, the bike includes a 4-way switch to regulate electronic operations through a 5-inch TFT panel with Bluetooth capability, a Type-C charging port, and a Hazard Blinker.</p>

<h2>Husqvarna Svartpilen 401: Price&nbsp;</h2>

<p>Priced at Rs 2.92 lakh ex-showroom, the <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-bikes/husqvarna/svartpilen-401/">Husqvarna Svartpilen 401</a> is less expensive than the <a href="https://www.autox.com/reviews/bike-reviews/ktm-390-duke-first-ride-review-great-balls-of-fire-114619/">KTM 390 Duke</a>, which has a retail price of Rs 3.10 lakh. There has been no word on a price change for the Husqvarna bike after the most recent <a href="https://www.autox.com/news/industry-news/yokohama-geolander-xtreme-off-road-series-unveiled-in-india-includes-all-terrain-mud-terrain-tyres-116228/">tyre</a> replacement.</p>


Husqvarna Svartpilen 401 to be Sold with Apollo Tyres and Not Pirelli Scorpion Rally STR, Here's Why

The Husqvarna Svartpilen 401 competes with several models in the segment, including the Triumph Speed 400, the Scrambler 400X, and the Bajaj Dominar 400.

<p>The brand-new Svartpilen 801 has been revealed for&nbsp;international markets by Husqvarna Motorcycles. A larger sibling to the smaller 125 and 401 models, the 2024 model&nbsp;takes the place of the single-cylinder Svartpilen 701. The motorcycle's fairly modern scrambler look&nbsp;seems&nbsp;to take major styling inspirations from the Svartpilen 401 and the Vitpilen series, which are being manufactured in India. The bike&nbsp;boasts&nbsp;a&nbsp;crisp&nbsp;and&nbsp;neo-retro design that is more subdued and elegant than the aggressive and&nbsp;sharp lines of the KTM 790 Duke, on which it is based.&nbsp;Though it's unclear if or when the Svartpilen 801 will arrive&nbsp;in India, it is anticipated to be on sale in Europe in June 2024.&nbsp;</p>

<p><img alt="Husqvarna Svartpilen 801" height="720" src="/uploads/2024/03/Husqvarna-Svartpilen-801.jpg" width="1280" /></p>

<h2>2024 Husqvarna Svartpilen 801: Mechanical Details</h2>

<p>As mentioned, the&nbsp;801 supersedes the Svartpilen 701, bringing a twin-cylinder engine instead of a single-cylinder unit. A peak torque of 87Nm at 8,000rpm and 103.5bhp of maximum power&nbsp;at 9,250rpm are churned out&nbsp;by the 799cc, parallel-twin, liquid-cooled motor taken from <a href="https://www.autox.com/news/bike-news/2024-ktm-790-duke-globally-unveiled-with-new-colours-and-graphics-114908/">the KTM 790 Duke</a>. A six-speed gearbox handles the&nbsp;transmission duties.&nbsp;</p>

<h2>2024 Husqvarna Svartpilen 801: Hardware Components</h2>

<p>On the hardware front, the Premium WP Apex suspension is on offer, comprising a rear shock with adjustable preload and rebound with 150mm of travel and an adjustable fork with 140mm of travel for compression and rebound damping. Furthermore, to maximise traction during acceleration and provide stability during heavy braking, a Power Assist Slipper Clutch (PASC) is mated to the&nbsp;gearbox. Clutchless up and downshifts are also possible with Husqvarna's Easy Shift.</p>

<h2>2024 Husqvarna Svartpilen 801: Rider Aids</h2>

<p><img alt="Husqvarna Svartpilen 801 2024 1 " height="720" src="/uploads/2024/03/Husqvarna-Svartpilen-801-2024-1-.jpg" width="1280" /></p>

<p>Three adjustable riding modes—Street, Rain, and Sport—traction control, cornering ABS, and more are included in the electronics package. Moreover, a Dynamic Pack with an optional feature that balances the throttle to counteract excessive engine braking is available. For added safety, there is also an anti-wheelie option that lowers the maximum wheelie angle.&nbsp;More seasoned&nbsp;riders can also use the Supermoto ABS mode. Other amenities include a ride-by-wire throttle with adjustable response, a quickshifter, and a five-inch TFT display featuring&nbsp;turn-by-turn&nbsp;navigation, phone call alerts, and smartphone connectivity.&nbsp;</p>

<h2>2024 Husqvarna Svartpilen 801: Will it Come to India?</h2>

<p>KTM introduced the 790 Duke in India, but it was later discontinued without an updated version. Consequently, the chances&nbsp;of the Husqvarna Svartpilen 801 (derived from the KTM 790 Duke) arriving here seem slim. The upcoming model will be a fierce competitor to the Triumph Scrambler 900, the Kawasaki Z900RS, and the Ducati Scrambler Icon if it ever makes it to our market. Meanwhile, the&nbsp;801 costs USD 10,899 (about Rs 9.06 lakh) in the US.&nbsp;For the uninitiated, the latest Husqvarna launch in India comes in the form of <a href="https://www.autox.com/reviews/bike-reviews/2024-husqvarna-svartpilen-401-review-ktm-390-duke-in-swedes-clothing-116083/">the&nbsp;Svartpilen 401</a> which is&nbsp;modelled after the well-liked KTM 390 Duke.</p>


2024 Husqvarna Svartpilen 801 Marks Global Debut with 799cc Twin-cylinder Engine, to Go on Sale in April

When it comes to the feature set of the Husqvarna Svartpilen 801, there is a ride-by-wire throttle with an adjustable response, a quickshifter, and a five-inch TFT display, among other rider aids.

<p>Husqvarna is set to pull the wraps off the Svartpilen 801 for the global market on March 19, i.e., tomorrow.&nbsp;The Swedish manufacturer teased the new middleweight bike earlier this month, providing prospective purchasers a preview of its appearance. The prototype resembled the Svartpilen 401, with integrated tank shrouds, a circular LED headlight with an integrated DRL ring, an upswept exhaust muffler, a single-piece tubular handlebar, a chopped-off tail part, and dual-purpose tyres. In addition, the teaser revealed a headlight grille, a flyscreen, and a bash plate, which have not yet been confirmed as standard or optional features. As of now, the Swedish manufacturer has no plans to release the Svartpilen 801 in India soon. It only provides the <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-bikes/husqvarna/svartpilen-401/">Svartpilen 401</a> here, which retails for Rs 2.92 lakh (ex-showroom). For more information about the upcoming Svartpilen 801, read on.</p>

<h2>Husqvarna Svartpilen 801: Engine and Hardware</h2>

<p>The&nbsp;Husqvarna Svartpilen 801 is expected to be based on the KTM 790 Duke, with a 799cc liquid-cooled parallel-twin engine that is capable of producing 103.5bhp at 9,000rpm and 87Nm at 8,000rpm. This unit includes a six-speed transmission and a bidirectional quickshifter.&nbsp;The same tubular chassis as the Austrian bike will most likely be found on the upcoming Svartpilen 801.&nbsp;Its suspension components may include a rear monoshock and upside-down front forks from WP-Apex. The new middleweight two-wheeler from&nbsp;Husqvarna is likely&nbsp;to come with single-disc brakes on both ends, as well as dual-channel ABS. Furthermore, the bike is expected to feature a distinctive alloy wheel design with five spokes and multipurpose rubber tyres.</p>

<h2>Husqvarna Svartpilen 801: Features&nbsp;</h2>

<p>The Swedish automaker hasn't disclosed any specifics, but the <a href="https://www.autox.com/news/bike-news/husqvarna-svartpilen-801-to-be-globally-revealed-on-march-11-to-use-104bhp-parallel-twin-engine-116388/">Husqvarna Svartpilen 801</a> is anticipated to have a long list of impressive features, like Bluetooth connectivity, a bi-directional quickshifter, a TFT dash with a Husqvarna-specific graphic, and a variety of electronic rider aids like cruise control, traction control, switchable rear ABS, ride modes, and more.</p>

<h2>Husqvarna Svartpilen 801: India Launch</h2>

<p>At this time, KTM does not provide any multi-cylinder, large-capacity models for sale in India, nor does it have any plans to do so in future. Given that the Husqvarna Svartpilen 801 is built on the large-capacity KTM 790 Duke, as previously mentioned, it is unlikely to be sold in our market. However, as the bike is set to be unveiled tomorrow, Indian bike fans can stay tuned with us for more information.</p>


Husqvarna Svartpilen 801 Global Debut Tomorrow, Here's What You Need to Know

The Husqvarna Svartpilen 801 is expected to be powered by the same 799cc parallel-twin engine used in the KTM 790 Duke. The Swedish manufacturer is currently selling only the Svartpilen 401 in India, which is priced at Rs 2.92 lakh (ex-showroom).

<p>Husqvarna is preparing to unveil its all-new middleweight motorcycle, the Svartpilen 801, on March 19 this year. However, prior to this, the Swedish brand has teased the pre-production model on social media, revealing a few design details. These include a circular LED headlamp with an integrated DRL ring, single-piece tubular handlebars, and an upswept exhaust system. Then, there is a headlight grille, likely to be offered as an accessory on the production-spec Svartpilen 801.&nbsp;</p>

<h2>Husqvarna Svartpilen 801: Powertrain</h2>

<p>As with other Husqvarna motorcycles, the upcoming&nbsp;Svartpilen 801 will likely be KTM-based. This means that the biggest displacement bike could get the same&nbsp;799cc, parallel-twin, liquid-cooled engine as the KTM 790 Duke. While the torque figure is yet to be revealed, the engine in the Svartpilen 801 will churn out 103.5bhp (105hp), slightly higher than the <a href="https://www.autox.com/news/bike-news/2024-ktm-790-duke-globally-unveiled-with-new-colours-and-graphics-114908/">2024 KTM 790 Duke&nbsp;– unveiled last year with two new colour options.</a>&nbsp;The transmission duties will be taken care of by a six-speed gearbox, assisted by a bi-directional quick-shifter.</p>

<h2>Husqvarna Svartpilen 801: Hardware</h2>

<p>The new Husqvarna motorcycle is expected to feature the same tubular chassis as the 790 Duke. Meanwhile, the suspension setup will comprise upside-down front&nbsp;forks and a rear monoshock, both sourced from WP-Apex. With dual-channel ABS, expect the braking hardware to include&nbsp;a single disc on either end, mounted on 5-spoke alloy wheels wrapped in block pattern tyres.&nbsp;</p>

<h2>Husqvarna Svartpilen 801: Electronic Aids</h2>

<p><img alt="Husqvarna Svartpilen 801 IC" height="720" src="/uploads/2024/03/Husqvarna-Svartpilen-801-IC.jpg" width="1280" /></p>

<p>Husqvarna says the&nbsp;Svartpilen 801 will come with&nbsp;state-of-the-art electronic rider aids, while also noting that the 'class-leading technology package maximises the riding experience and safety throughout every ride'.&nbsp;Apart from Easy Shift as standard, the bike will likely offer&nbsp;traction control, a Supermoto ABS mode,&nbsp;ride modes,&nbsp;and a TFT console with smartphone connectivity. The motorcycle tips the scales at 181 kilograms; however, it remains to be seen whether this is dry or kerb weight.&nbsp;</p>

<h2>Husqvarna Svartpilen 801: India Launch on Cards?</h2>

<p>The bike on which the&nbsp;Husqvarna Svartpilen 801 is based is not sold in our market as yet. So, it is highly unlikely the Swedish bikemaker would bring its&nbsp;bike here.&nbsp;</p>

<h2>Husqvarna Svartpilen Lineup in India</h2>

<p>Currently, Husqvarna only offers the&nbsp;Svartpilen 401 in the Indian market. <a href="https://www.autox.com/news/bike-news/husqvarna-vitpilen-250-svartpilen-401-launched-in-india-starting-at-rs-219-lakh-115880/">Launched in January 2024</a>, the bike is priced at Rs 2.92 lakh (ex-showroom). As for the smaller capacity&nbsp;Svartpilen 250, the 2024 iteration is anticipated to launch soon in the country. Late last month, the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.autox.com/news/bike-news/2024-husqvarna-svartpilen-250-homologated-india-launch-soon-116292/">Svartpilen 250 was homologated</a>, revealing its gross weight, wheelbase, and more.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The Husqvarna&nbsp;Svartpilen 250&nbsp;will be based on the current KTM 250 Duke&nbsp;– meaning the 2024 Husqvarna Svartpilen 250 will come powered by&nbsp;a new-generation 249cc, single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine, dubbed&nbsp;the LC4c.</p>
