Tata Tiago EV Records 10,000 Unit Sales Milestone in Under 4 Months

With the delivery of the 10,000th Tiago EV in less than 4 months, Tata Motors has set a new sales record, making it the fastest electric vehicle to do so. It is said to have traveled to 491 cities across India, covering 11.2 million kilometre, and claimed to prevent 1.6 million gm of CO2 emissions. 

<p>The Tata Tiago EV is the official partner of the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL), which started on 31st March. It marks the sixth year of the carmaker's relationship with the BCCI, the Board of Control for Cricket in India. The carmaker has taken a surprising shift by introducing the EV model as an official partner for the IPL 2023 edition. Previously, <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/tata/">Tata Motors</a> displayed its lineup of SUVs in the series. Rising awareness of <a href="https://www.autox.com/electric-cars/">electric vehicles</a> using this medium is the major reason cited by the manufacturer for this move.&nbsp;Tata Motors, the official partner of the IPL, will showcase the Tiago EV in each of the 12 stadiums while also interacting with the public through a variety of events. One such effort is the "100 reasons to go. ev with Tiago.ev" campaign, which aims to identify the biggest obstacles to EV adoption among consumers. The campaign also seeks to highlight the Tiago EV's USPS and dispel common EV myths.</p>

<h2>Tata Motors's Association With IPL: A Quick Rundown&nbsp;</h2>

<p>In 2018, Tata Motors began sponsoring the IPL series and took over as the title sponsor in 2022. The carmaker displayed the <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/tata/nexon/">Nexon</a> at that time. The <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/tata/harrier/">Harrier</a>, <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/tata/altroz/">Altroz</a>, and <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/tata/safari/">Safari</a> all came after it in the following years: 2019, 2020, and 2021. The <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/tata/punch/">Punch</a> SUV was the official partner for the previous year's season, and the Kaziranga edition was on display only during some matches.</p>

<h2>Tata Tiago EV: The New Official Partner of IPL 2023</h2>

<p>As mentioned, Tata Motors has chosen the electric car as the official partner to raise awareness of EVs and dispel misconceptions about them.&nbsp;Mechanically, the Tata Tiago EV is available with two battery choices: 19.2kWh and 24kWh. In our market, the EV version costs between Rs 8.69 lakh and Rs 11.99 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi).</p>

<p>Aside from the EV promotion, the automaker will give the "Tiago EV Electric Striker" award and a cash reward of Rs. 1 lakh to the player with the highest strike rate of each match. The automaker will also provide tickets to some matches as a prize for early EV adopters. Owners of Tata EVs will also be able to participate in some engagement events on-site, and a select few will even have the opportunity to award some cricketers.</p>


Tata Tiago EV is the Official Partner of Indian Premiere League 2023

The Tata Tiago EV is the current official partner of the IPL 2023. The Tata Nexon, the Harrier, the Altroz, the Safari, and the Punch are some of the Tata models that have served as official partners of the series over the years.

<p><a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/tata/">Tata Motors</a> has commenced customer deliveries of the Tata Tiago EV. According to the firm, the electric car accumulated 10,000 orders on the day when its bookings started in India.

The carmaker announced at the time of the electric hatchback's launch that the introductory prices would only be available for the first 10,000 bookings. Interestingly, Tata has extended introductory prices for more additional 10,000 clients, considering the market response.&nbsp;The manufacturer claims that the electric hatchback is the first in its segment to come with connected features as standard across all the variants.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Sharing his viewpoint on the love and faith of clients for the electric hatchback,&nbsp;Vivek Srivatsa, Head of Marketing, Sales and Service Strategy at Tata Passenger Electric Mobility Ltd., said,&nbsp;"The launch of the Tiago.ev was aimed at accelerating the adoption of EVs by democratising the Indian EV market and we are happy to announce that we are on the right path with this product, with cars retailed across 133 cities on the back of a robust sales network.''</p>

<p>He further added ''The sheer trust in this brand has led to the success we are celebrating today. With a 38.6% growth YoY in EVs (as of January 2023), we remain committed to our vision of providing customers with the best, helping make EVs accessible to all.''</p>

<p>The Tiago EV comes equipped with two battery packs - a 12.2 kWh and a 24 kWh. Its larger battery produces 73bhp and 114Nm, while the smaller battery generates 60bhp and 110Nm. The entry-level Tiago EV models have a lower battery pack, which gives them an MIDC range of 250 kilometre, whereas the higher trims have a bigger battery pack, which offers them a 315 kilometre MIDC range. Both battery packs can be charged from 10% to 80% in 57 minutes by using a 50kW fast charger.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Furthermore, Tata Motors is gearing up to launch the Punch CNG and the Altroz CNG in India by June 2023. The firm will reportedly offer the CNG kit on the mid and higher-spec&nbsp;variants of these models. The prices of the upcoming CNG variants haven't been revealed, but we expect them to cost more than their petrol siblings. &nbsp;</p>


Tata Tiago EV Deliveries Commence in India

Tata Tiago EV deliveries have finally started in India. The firm has delivered the first batch of 2000 EVs to customers across 133 cities. It has been reported that 20,000 pre-orders for the Tata Tiago EV have been received by the company.

<p><em><strong>Tata Motors has confirmed that&nbsp;Tiago EV, the most affordable&nbsp;electric vehicle in the manufacturer's lineup, will see a three to four percent price hike from January onwards.&nbsp;Although the exact amount of the raise has&nbsp;not yet&nbsp;been disclosed, it is anticipated to be between Rs 30,000-35,000.</strong></em><strong> </strong></p>

<p><a href="https://www.autox.com/videos/tata-tiago-ev-review-there-is-just-one-deal-breaker-for-this-electric-car-first-drive-autox-112071/">The Tiago&nbsp;EV</a> was launched by Tata as India's most affordable&nbsp;EV in September 2022. With a price tag of Rs&nbsp;8.49 lakh (ex-showroom), the hatchback&nbsp;continued to hold its status. However, the company has recently announced that there will be a three&nbsp;to four&nbsp;percent&nbsp;price hike for the electric vehicle&nbsp;in January 2023.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The price increase was expected&nbsp;as&nbsp;Tata Motors had stated at the time of the EV's&nbsp;launch that the introductory cost of the car&nbsp;would&nbsp;only be valid for the first 10,000 customers. Later, due to an overwhelming demand for the <a href="https://www.autox.com/reviews/car-reviews/tata-tiago-ev-review-first-drive-112062/">Tiago EV</a>, which also caused some early buyers&nbsp;to be unable to finish their online bookings, the offer&nbsp;was extended to the first 20,000 customers.</p>

<p>According to Shailesh Chandra, Managing Director of <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/tata/">Tata</a> Motors Passenger Vehicles and Tata Passengers Electric Mobility,&nbsp;the hike is not solely a result of the introductory prices. Another aspect is that "battery prices have&nbsp;increased by 30-35 percent, and it is not fully passed on to the buyers.” Recently, the automaker also announced a price hike across its entire model&nbsp;lineup citing reasons like&nbsp;rising input costs, and the same&nbsp;is likely to hold for the price increase of&nbsp;the Tata Tiago EV as well.</p>

<p>In India, the <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/tata/tiago-ev/">Tata Tiago EV</a>&nbsp;is available with two battery pack configurations. The smaller of the two has a 19.2kWh battery and comes with a 3.3kW AC charger. Similarly, the bigger&nbsp;options&nbsp;include a 24kWh battery pack with 3.3kW or 7.2kW AC charger options. The XE and XT variants&nbsp;comprise&nbsp;a 19.2kWh battery pack, while the XT, XZ+, and XZ+ Tech Lux variants include&nbsp;a 24kWh battery pack.</p>

Tata Tiago EV Prices to Increase by up to Four Percent in January; Here's Why

Tata Motors has announced that the price of its entry-level electric vehicle, the Tiago EV, will be hiked in January 2023. The price increase will most likely be in the range of Rs 30,000-35,000.

<p><em><strong>Bookings for the Tata Tiago EV will open at 12 noon for an amount of ₹21,000. It can either be made at any Tata dealership or online at the model website.</strong></em></p>

<p>Tiago EV, the newest addition to Tata's EV family, was&nbsp;launched at an introductory price, starting at ₹8.49 Lakh (ex-showroom). Presently, the Tiago EV&nbsp;is India's most affordable passenger&nbsp;electric car. The company is now strengthening its EV network across 165 cities and entering 80 new ones with the arrival of the&nbsp;<a href="http://www.autox.com/new-cars/tata/tiago-ev/">Tiago&nbsp;EV</a>.</p>

<p>The 19.2kWh&nbsp;and 24kWh&nbsp;battery pack options of&nbsp;the Tiago EV are combined with an electric motor, offering 60bhp and 110Nm and 74bhp and 114Nm, respectively. The former can cover 250km, compared to the latter's 315km of range (MIDC figures). Additionally, the Tiago EV has two drive modes – City and Sport – and four levels of regenerative braking. According to the Indian carmaker, production preference will be given to the long-range 24kWh variants based on customer demands.</p>

<p>While the customer deliveries of the Tiago EV are slated to begin in January 2023, customer test drives will be available from late December 2022 onwards. The car will also be on display at leading shopping malls in major Indian cities, starting this month.</p>

Kia Carens Clavis Fuel Efficiency Figures Revealed Ahead of Upcoming India Launch

Apple CarPlay Ultra is the Next-Gen Infotainment System, Marks Debut with Aston Martin

<p>The Kia Carens has been selling well and has even surpassed the 2 lakh units sales mark since its launch. However, this three-row offering was due for an update. But rather than replacing the old model with a new one, Kia has instead decided to bring a new vehicle based on the Carens, but made to be more premium and feature-rich. This new vehicle is the Carens Clavis. While the Carens name points to its lineage, the term Clavis is Latin for key. Specifically, it has been taken from a Latin phrase that means the golden key. So, what key changes have been made to make the Carens Clavis that make it a step up from the Carens?</p>
<p><a href="https://youtu.be/27HvUcTn6qQ?si=Rn8DHNTWonbOXWbo"><iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/27HvUcTn6qQ?si=c4gMRiIYkvpsPRgY" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></a></p>
<h2>Kia Carens Clavis Design &amp; Styling <br></h2>
<p>Despite being the same vehicle underneath the skin, the Clavis looks different from the Carens. This is largely thanks to the digital tiger nose grille and the new Star Map LED DRLs and headlamp cluster. The front is largely closed off, much like EVs and resembles Kia’s more recent offerings like the Syros and EV9. There is a prominent sliver chrome skid plate and both ends at either end of the vehicle to give it a butch SUV-like appeal. In fact, the raised bonnet adds to this bolder appeal at the front and side. What also helps elevate the look of the Clavis are the 17-inch alloy wheels, which are an inch bigger than the ones on the Carens. In terms of dimensions, the Clavis is 10mm longer but shares the rest of its figures with the Carens. This also means that the 216-litre boot remains the same.</p>
<h2>More gadgets! <br></h2>
<p>When you step inside, you are greeted by a much more premium and modern cabin. Not only is there more tech on display, but the materials used on the dashboard are great to look at, too. New additions include a connected island housing twin 10.25-inch displays, a four-way power adjustable driver’s seat, a new steering wheel and a bigger dual-pane panoramic sunroof. There is also a new hybrid touch panel which can switch from media to AC controls. While it saves space on the dashboard, I am not completely sold on its usability. If you are driving and want to make any changes, you will have to take your eyes off the road.</p>
<p><img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/05/KIA-Carens-clavis-6-1747369221418.webp" alt="KIA Carens clavis interior .jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;"></p>
<p>The second row has not seen many changes and you can get the Clavis in 6- and 7-seater variants, just like the Carens. The 7-seater option does come with a three-point seatbelt for the middle passenger this time around. Also, there is a walk-in feature that allows you to adjust the front passenger seat from the second row by using a lever on the side of the seat. Similarly, there is a one-touch tumble function for the left-side second row seat, which makes getting into the third row easier. Since the bigger sunroof extends till the second row, the roof-mounted AC vents have been moved to the sides. It was a bit disappointing to see that the underthigh support in the second row has not improved.</p>
<div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">
    <img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/05/KIA-Carens-clavis-10-1747369599171.webp" alt="KIA Carens clavis 3rd row seats.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;">
</div>
<p>The third row is also rather decent for shorter journeys. It is much more suited for children than adults, considering the lack of underthigh support and legroom. I do, however, like that Kia has given AC vents, reading lights, two USB-C ports and cupholders even in the last row. <br></p>
<h2>Kia Carens Clavis: Powertrain Options</h2>
<p>The drivetrain options remain the same as the Carens — a 1.5-litre NA petrol, 1.5-litre turbo-charged petrol and 1.5-litre diesel. The power and torque figures remain unchanged, too, but the Clavis also gets a 6-speed manual transmission along with the 1.5 turbo-petrol. </p>
<div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">
    <img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/05/KIA-Carens-clavis-8-1747369643631.webp" alt="KIA Carens clavis turbo petrol engine.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;">
</div>
<p>The Clavis is a comfort-oriented vehicle and that is apparent in the quiet cabin, light steering wheel and absorbent suspension. Ground clearance is not a problem either, as I did not bottom out even while clearing tall speedbreakers. Unlike the Carens, the Clavis does get 20 Level 2 ADAS features that make your driving experience safer. The additional cameras fitted onto the car also enable a surround view feature which makes parking the vehicle easier. <br></p>
<h2>Kia Carens Clavis: Verdict<br></h2>
<p>The Carens Clavis is definitely a step up from the Carens. It looks more modern, has more features, while retaining a plush ride experience and the versatility of multiple powertrain options. While pricing is not out yet, we know that it will be more expensive than the Carens. As long as Kia manages to have a modest increase of around Rs 1-1.5 lakh over the Carens, the Clavis will be an easy recommendation for families.<br></p>

Skoda Kylaq vs Hyundai i20 N Line vs Maruti Suzuki Fronx Turbo: Best Budget Hot Hatch?

The Kylaq, i20 N Line, & Fronx Turbo have all the ingredients to classify as a ‘hot hatch’ for the masses, but which one can truly be called the best?

<p>
I’m sure I don’t have to tell you that I’ve been waiting for this moment for a long time!</p>

<p>Well, since July 2013 to be exact – that’s the last time I drove a Ferrari V12 convertible. And it just so happens that the Ferrari 12Cilindri is the spiritual successor of this very machine – a 1971 365 GTS, the Daytona Spider, which directly inspired the styling of the front-end of this machine.
      
    <br></p>
  
<p>At the time, even in my wildest dreams I couldn’t have possibly imagined that over a decade later, on the 16th of April 2024, Ferrari would ensure that the lineage of the front-engined V12 GT would endure, thanks to the 12Cilindri.</p><p><img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/03/1741785060147-1jvd-Ferrari-12Cilindri-Spider-Front.webp" alt="Ferrari 12Cilindri Spider-Front.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;"></p>

<p>And I certainly couldn’t have predicted that I would be at Maranello on that fateful day, when both the Berlinetta and Spider would be unveiled to an unsuspecting bunch of motoring journalists from across the globe. But that was just the unveil. This would finally be my chance to get behind the wheel – here in Cascais in Portugal, on the western most tip of the European continent.</p><p><img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/03/1741784879542-zhk3-Ferrari-12Cilindri-Spider-infotainment-screen.webp" alt="Ferrari 12Cilindri Spider-infotainment-screen.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;"></p><p>The 12Cilindri Spider was kitted out in its launch livery of Verde Toscana, which was offset perfectly by the black contrasting trim. And, to my eyes, it’s an absolutely stunning machine – a design that, for some reason, the pictures simply do no justice! It’s clean and elegant, while being muscular and curvaceous at the same time. There’s a timelessness to the design, and I personally think it’ll age very well indeed.</p>

    
  
    
  


<h2>So, what’s all the fuss about?</h2>

<p>Well, the name is a dead giveaway – the car is pronounced Dodici Cilindri, which literally translates to 12 cylinders in Italian. The engine was so important to this machine – so central to Ferrari in fact – that they decided to name this car after its engine configuration. You see, across the industry, engines are either being downsized and turbocharged or hybridised, or both, so the idea of a naturally aspirated V12 is not just truly alluring but also incredibly courageous from the Prancing Horse. </p><p><img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/03/1741784948629-7w76-Ferrari-12Cilindri-Spider-Rear-View.webp" alt="Ferrari 12Cilindri Spider-Rear-View.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;"></p><p>Now that’s not to say that Ferrari hasn’t also gone down the turbo and hybrid route already – in fact, with its performance flagship, the SF90, it’s attached a pair of turbos to a V8, not to mention added a battery pack and a set of motors to give it 1,000 horsepower and all-wheel drive. Meanwhile, in the achingly beautiful and spectacularly fast 296, it’s even gone down the V6 route (which is also turbocharged and hybridised) for the first time since the Dino in the 60s. And, of course, it’s also heading down the EV route, with its first all-electric supercar that will be revealed later this year.</p><p>But Ferrari also wants to retain the essence of its GT cars from the 50s and 60s, which is where the 12Cilindri comes in. And so, this successor to the 812 Superfast gave up its ultimate performance throne to the SF90 and instead embraced its GT roots to make the most of the V12 under the bonnet – which can be both incredibly refined but also insanely explosive, depending on what you do with your right foot.</p>

    
  
    
  


<h2>So, what’s under the hood?</h2>

<p>Now, we’ve been over the specs before, but it bears repeating – it’s a 6.5-litre V12 that produces a scarcely believable 128bhp per litre for a total power output of 818bhp at 9,250rpm and 678Nm at 7,250rpm. It redlines at, brace yourself, 9,500rpm, and it’s so incredibly smooth, plus it revs so fast thanks to its titanium conrods, that you can get up to the redline and not even know it unless you’re looking at the digital tach on the instrument cluster.</p><p><img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/03/1741784971851-vk7o-Ferrari-12Cilindri-Spider-1.webp" alt="Ferrari 12Cilindri Spider-1.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;"></p><p>Yes, it reaches 100km/h in 2.9 seconds and 200km/h in 7.9 seconds from a standstill, but it also has a cabin outfitted with the finest handstitched Italian leather and all the tech you can possibly imagine. It gets three displays – one for the instrument cluster, one for the central screen, where you can connect your phone, and the third is a passenger screen integrated into the dash, so your unsuspecting co-driver can keep an eye on the revs as he or she hangs on for dear life.</p>
  
    
  


<p>Of course, in true Ferrari fashion, it’s got massive gear shift paddles mounted to the steering column – as opposed to onto the steering wheel – which is just how I like them because you always know where they are. The steering wheel has wiper controls and indicator buttons, as well the famous Manettino switch, which you use to control the driving modes. But it also has a very innocuous button on a panel off to one side of the steering wheel that’s marked HELE, which stands for ‘High Emotion, Low Emission.’ That’s Ferrari-speak for the Auto Start-Stop button. Most cars would have an ‘A’ inside a circle, but that just wouldn’t do on a Ferrari. But the thing is that it’s not contrived in the cabin of this car. It’s simply a result of the Ferrari mindset of passion and precision. Of course, they strive for absolute performance and aim for perfection, but at the heart of every decision is emotion – the emotion it evokes when you interact with the machine. And you get a sense of that ethos from everyone who works at Maranello, regardless of whether that person is in his or her first week or a veteran who’s been there for decades.
      
<br></p>
  
<h2>So, what’s it like from behind the wheel?</h2>

<p>Well, I would love to tell you that I spent my time in the 12Cilindri Spider bouncing off the 9,500rpm rev limiter, but in fact we were met with a torrential downpour that felt less like Southern Europe and more like South Mumbai in the monsoon. But what these conditions did was usher in a complete revelation in terms of just what this Ferrari GT is capable of.</p>

<p>You would imagine that an 800+ horsepower rear drive beast would be a terrifying experience in the pouring rain – especially on the tight and twisting coastal roads of Portugal, but in in truth, with the Manettino set to ‘Wet,’ it was almost as docile as a Fiat Panda. But the minute you bury your right foot into the carpet, it quickly turns into a thoroughbred stallion – but never a bucking Bronco. You can see the traction control button flashing away on the dash as you try and overwhelm the rear tyres, but the electronics are so well calibrated that it modulates the power perfectly to match the prevailing levels of grip. Sure, you can always get in over your head with that much power on tap but show a little restraint and the 12Cilindri will humour and entertain you in equal measure.</p><p><img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/03/1741785017763-ioei-Ferrari-12Cilindri-Spider-Rear-Three-Quarter.webp" alt="Ferrari 12Cilindri Spider-Rear-Three-Quarter.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;"></p><p>Of course, any opportunity I got between the near incessant showers, I dropped the top to hear that V12 howl. Sure, it’s slightly muted because of a pair of catalytic convertors and petrol particulate filters, but in ‘Race’ mode, with the flaps in the exhaust open, it’s enough to make your hair stand on end and send chills down your spine. But, really, what stands out in this car is its sheer poise and balance. No one does cohesion quite like Ferrari. Sure, a lot of manufacturers do power and speed quite well, but no one does it with this much style and finesse.</p><p><img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/03/1741785044538-hxid-Ferrari-12Cilindri-Spider-Side-Profile.webp" alt="Ferrari 12Cilindri Spider-Side-Profile.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;"></p>

    
  


<p>So, what you’re getting in the 12Cilindri is a level of performance &amp; style mated to a versatility &amp; usability that’s simply unmatched. You get bragging rights and the ultimate tech of course, but what really sets this machine apart is its breadth of capability, which is in a league of one. This really is a car that you can drive cross-country to your favourite racetrack, have a blast at the limit, and then drive home again at breakneck speed – in true GT fashion.</p>

<p>Job well done Ferrari! Thank you for flying the V12 flag – may you continue to do so for a long time to come…</p>

Ferrari 12Cilindri Spider First Drive Review: Versatility in Verde

We drove a naturally-aspirated V12, convertible Ferrari offering maximum involvement but a torrential downpour threatened to spoil the party.

<p>We were quite eager to&nbsp;get our hands on this bike since it was first teased at&nbsp;<a href="https://www.autox.com/news/bike-news/eicma-2024-top-india-bound-motorcycles-to-watch-out-for-118832/">EICMA</a>. The <a href="https://www.autox.com/reviews/bike-reviews/ktm-390-adventure-review-first-ride-107195/">old 390 Adventure</a> was a blast, don't get me wrong, but it had its quirks, especially when pushed off-road. After spending six months commuting on the Royal Enfield Himalayan, I was curious to see how this new KTM stacked up. Well, we recently had the opportunity to thoroughly ride and test it, and let me tell you that it's a significant leap forward. This isn't just a refresh; it's a full-fledged evolution.</p><div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">
      <img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/02/1740405360146-iso3-KTM-390-Adventure-Web-5.webp" alt="KTM 390 Adventure Web 5.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;">
    </div>
  <p><br></p><h2>KTM 390 Adventure First Ride Review: Design and Quality<br></h2><p>Let's talk about the design first. It's definitely going to spark debate, but personally, I like it. That rugged rally-inspired Dakar vibe works in its favour. The tall windscreen and short front fender look the part, though I did notice a bit of wind noise from the Indian-spec number plate mount while riding, but it's a minor niggle.</p><p><strong>Also Read:&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://www.autox.com/reviews/bike-reviews/kawasaki-klx-230-review-more-capable-than-hero-xpulse-200-and-re-himalayan-450-118831/">Kawasaki KLX 230 Review: More Capable Than Hero Xpulse 200 and RE Himalayan 450?</a></p><p>KTM has tackled some key issues. The 21-inch front and
17-inch rear spoke wheels with tubeless Apollo Tramplr tyres are a huge plus.
The WP Apex suspension is another standout upgrade, offering a noticeably more
compliant and capable ride. An India-specific tweak – the offset rear monoshock
– lowers the seat height to 830mm in the Adventure variant and 825mm in the
Adventure X. On top of that, ground clearance has been increased to a solid
237mm, addressing a major concern from the previous model.</p><p><img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/02/1740405472650-uxpi-KTM-390-Adventure-Web-13.webp" alt="KTM 390 Adventure Web 13.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;"></p>
  <p>The pigmented body panels are a nice touch, promising better scratch resistance since they're painted during the moulding process itself. And the standard kit – knuckle guards, engine guard, and bash plate – is quite useful for off-road scrapes. The forged foot levers feel solid, and you can remove the rubber inserts for better grip while riding&nbsp;in the dirt. My only gripe? The flimsy all-plastic knuckle guards&nbsp;–&nbsp;they would have been much better with metal reinforcements.&nbsp;</p><p><img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/02/1740405792534-0shu-KTM-390-Adventure-Web-7.webp" alt="KTM 390 Adventure Web 7.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;"></p><p>The new bespoke ADV tubular trellis subframe – KTM claims
that it’s 10% more rigid – feels solid and enhances the bike’s overall
stability. Despite the weight dropping to 183kgs, the 14.5-litre fuel tank
remains unchanged. The overall fit and finish are excellent, offering a premium
feel throughout. The 5-inch bonded TFT screen, borrowed from the new 390 Duke,
is crisp, clear, and easily readable even in bright sunlight.<br></p><h2>KTM 390 Adventure First Ride Review: Ergonomics and Features<br></h2><p>The riding position is comfortable and upright – perfect for
long days in the saddle. The new KTM 390 Adventure feels large when you're off
it but seems to shrink around you once you get on and start moving. The
controls are intuitive, and the switchgear is easy to reach. Cruise control is
a welcome addition for highway stints, and the ride modes – Rain, Street, and
Off-Road – are simple to toggle through. A big plus is that ride mode settings
remain unchanged even after switching off the ignition – a thoughtful touch
indeed!</p>
<p>Phone connectivity and navigation feel slick, and the
voice-activated calling is a nice convenience. Unlike the Duke 390, which can
only receive calls, the 390 Adventure allows you to make calls directly from
the bike. Finally, the electronics suite – which includes cornering ABS,
switchable cornering traction control, Quickshifter+, and customizable ride
modes – works seamlessly to enhance both safety and performance.</p><p><strong>Also Read:</strong>&nbsp;<a href="https://www.autox.com/reviews/bike-reviews/royal-enfield-himalayan-in-depth-review-the-flying-sherpa-115536/">Royal Enfield Himalayan Review: The Flying Sherpa!</a></p><p><img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/02/1740405914040-dchb-KTM-390-Adventure-Web-1.webp" alt="KTM 390 Adventure Web 1.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;"></p><h2>KTM 390 Adventure First Ride Review: Performance and Handling<br></h2><p>Now, let’s get to the good stuff – how it rides. The LC4c
399cc single-cylinder liquid-cooled engine is noticeably smoother, thanks to
the 5mm offset crank. It delivers better low-end grunt than the previous model
but still loves to be revved. Peak power kicks in 1,000rpm sooner, making it
more accessible.</p>
<p>That said, there’s still a noticeable lag before the bike
starts moving. I noticed that it stalled a couple of times when
setting off from a standstill off-road, but far less frequently than the old
bike.</p><p><img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/02/1740405943424-ag92-KTM-390-Adventure-Web-15.webp" alt="KTM 390 Adventure Web 15.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;"></p><p>Acceleration is brisk, with 0 – 60 km/h achieved in 2.6
seconds and 0 – 100 km/h in 6.2 seconds – both quicker than the previous
generation model. The improved mid-range power is quite evident, delivering
faster 30 – 70 km/h roll-on acceleration.
Cruise control, which activates above 20 km/h, performs well
on the highway, especially when paired with Quickshifter+, making for a smooth
and hassle-free touring experience.</p><p><strong>Also Read:</strong>&nbsp;<a href="https://www.autox.com/reviews/bike-reviews/2024-yezdi-adventure-first-ride-review-better-than-the-himalayan-117960/">2024 Yezdi Adventure First Ride Review: Better Than The Himalayan?</a></p><p>The bike’s heat management has improved, thanks to the
curved radiator and reprofiled shrouds that divert hot air away from the rider
– a definite and noticeable upgrade. The underbelly exhaust, with its claimed
400mm water-wading capacity, handles water crossings with ease, even when the
water level reaches the engine guards.</p><p><img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/02/1740406032170-z2yg-KTM-390-Adventure-Web-3.webp" alt="KTM 390 Adventure Web 3.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;"></p><p>The WP Apex suspension has received a significant upgrade,
offering a much more compliant ride, as it effortlessly absorbs bumps and rough
terrain. The adjustable open-cartridge system provides 30 steps of compression
and rebound adjustment at the front, 20 steps at the rear, and 10 steps of
preload adjustment at the rear, allowing for fine-tuning across various riding
conditions.
While the increased suspension travel is a welcome
improvement, I did notice the front forks bottoming out a couple of times
during intense off-road testing – enough to throw me off the line slightly. That
said, it’s a fair trade-off for the bike’s sharp on-road dynamics and a huge
improvement over the previous model’s overly stiff setup, which was a common
complaint.</p><p><img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/02/1740406059851-vvw3-KTM-390-Adventure-Web-4.webp" alt="KTM 390 Adventure Web 4.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;"></p><p>
    Off-road, the bike feels light, balanced, and predictable in
technical sections. Compared to the Himalayan, it’s noticeably sharper and more
responsive. The Apollo Tramplr tyres performed decently across varied on- and
off-road conditions. However, since we didn’t lower the tyre pressure when
going off-road, the front end lacked a bit of bite.
The brakes – a 320mm floating disc with a twin-piston calliper
up front and a 240mm rear disc with a single-piston calliper – are strong and
provide good feedback.</p><p><strong>Also Read:</strong>&nbsp;<a href="https://www.autox.com/reviews/bike-reviews/royal-enfield-himalayan-vs-triumph-scrambler-400x-115920/">2024 Royal Enfield Himalayan vs Triumph Scrambler 400X: Which is Better for Everyday Adventure?</a></p><h2>KTM 390 Adventure First Ride Review: Verdict<br></h2><p>So, is the new KTM 390 Adventure worth the hype? Absolutely.
It’s a complete and far more refined package. The improvements in engine
smoothness, suspension compliance, and overall capability are substantial. It
still retains the fun, hooligan character we love, but now it’s more versatile
and capable than ever.</p><p><img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/02/1740406224156-l0fz-KTM-390-Adventure-Web-6.webp" alt="KTM 390 Adventure Web 6.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;"></p><p>For
someone like me, who loves venturing off the beaten path, this bike is a
serious contender. It’s fun, capable, and feels right. While I’m still eager to
do a proper back-to-back comparison with its rivals, my initial impressions are
overwhelmingly positive. This is a true adventure bike that delivers on its
promises.<br></p>

KTM 390 Adventure First Ride Review: It's Everything You Wanted, And More!

The wait is over. The 2025 KTM 390 Adventure is here, and it's a game-changer. We rode it, pushing it to its limits, and here's our honest take.

<p>Ather introduced their revolutionary Magic Twist regenerative braking system with the 450 Apex, a limited edition model. Then they brought traction control with the Rizta and now, you get the best of both worlds with the updated 450X…and also the new Apex. I got a chance to test out the Magic Twist and the updated traction control system on the new scooter at a go-kart track and even on some off-road patches. So, how good is the 450X now?</p>

<p><iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/n1zqFDNCeAE?si=8D0u5vi9QkL4qFhH" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe></p>

<h2>2025 Ather 450X Review: New Modes and Regen</h2>

<p>The first thing I want to highlight is the multi-level traction control system. While the Rizta had a simpler on-and-off toggle, the new 450 scooters get multiple levels — Rain, Road and Rally. You can also completely switch it off if you want. As one would expect, the traction control system is the most active when you select Rain while Road is meant for daily usage.</p>

<p>In the Rally mode, the traction control is a lot more lenient and it allows you to kick up some dirt. We tested the modes on some loose sand and it worked really well. There is an appreciable difference when testing the scooter in extreme conditions. While the 450X, does not really need a traction control system, it is good to see it nonetheless.</p>

<p><img alt="2025 Ather 450X Off Road" src="/uploads/2025/01/2025-Ather-450X-off-road.jpg" style="width: 1280px; height: 720px;" /></p>

<p>The 450X still gets the same 8.4bhp motor that is capable of producing 26Nm. It is still just as fun to ride and just as responsive too. Ather has introduced a new set of tyres from MRF&nbsp;with the updated scooters. These tyres have been developed specially for the 450 and are meant to offer more range while not compromising grip. And I must say, that I hardly noticed any issue with the grip from the new rubber. Combined with the new regen braking, this setup is claimed to substantially increase the real-world range of the scooter. As per Ather, the TruRange of the 3.7kWh model has gone up from 105km to 130km. That is a healthy boost and we will be eager to test it out when we have the scooter for a longer time.</p>

<p><img alt="2025 Ather 450X Tyres" src="/uploads/2025/01/2025-Ather-450X-tyres.jpg" style="width: 1280px; height: 720px;" /></p>

<p>What I do feel is a missed opportunity is that there is still no ABS. I think adding ABS over traction control would have been more useful. I did find myself locking the brakes a couple of times when on the track. While you may argue that people ride more gently on the road, let me remind you that the conditions out there can be rather unpredictable. Also, now that the 450X supports traction control modes and regen levels along with ride modes, I think that Ather should display them on the screen as well. This would help the rider in knowing what levels of various settings the scooter is in, rather than having to dig deep into menus.</p>

<h2>2025 Ather 450X Review: Colour Options and UI Updates</h2>

<p>Ather has not changed any aspect of the scooter’s design so it remains the same as before. There are, however, two new colour options available now - Hyper Sand and Stealth Blue. I particularly like the Hyper Sand colour options as it has a nice finish and looks rather refreshing. As a bonus, if you get this colour option, you will not have to worry about the scooter looking dirty because of the shade.</p>

<p><img alt="2025 Ather 450X Screen" src="/uploads/2025/01/2025-Ather-450X-screen.jpg" style="width: 1280px; height: 720px;" /></p>

<p>The new 450 scooters also get Atherstack 6 as part of the software suite. The instrument cluster is the same touch unit and is packed with features. However, the response is still lethargic when you use the map screen. There are noticeable stutters while you pan around. I also noticed that while most of the interface operation is smooth, there are the occasional hiccups and moments when the screen does not react as quickly.</p>

<h2>2025 Ather 450X Review: Is it better?</h2>

<p>Altogether, the 450X remains a smart and fast scooter that is more feature-rich than ever before. I feel the Magic Twist is a great addition and one that will find a lot of daily use. The traction control might be less useful but is a good safety feature still.</p>

<p><img alt="2025 Ather 450X Riding" src="/uploads/2025/01/2025-Ather-450X-riding.jpg" style="width: 1280px; height: 720px;" /></p>

<p>As for the pricing, it has gone up ever so slightly by Rs 6,400 for the base 450X and Rs 2,000 for the 450X with the bigger 3.7kWh battery pack.</p>

<p>Similarly, the 450 Apex has also seen a mere increase of Rs 5,001 on the effective ex-showroom price in Bengaluru. And Ather is throwing in the Halo helmet with the Apex to make it more lucrative. Altogether, despite the price hike, the scooters remain smart and safe options to pick if you are looking for an EV in this segment.<br />
