The KTM 200 Duke has received a 2026 update. While the company has yet to make an official announcement, the motorcycle has begun arriving at dealerships and is reportedly priced at Rs 1.94 lakh (ex-showroom), marking a Rs 3,000 increase over the previous model. The engine remains unchanged, but the bike benefits from upgraded hardware and a new livery. Here’s a look at what’s new.
The 2026 model has borrowed lighter five-spoke alloy wheels from the 160 Duke and 250 Duke, which should help reduce unsprung mass and improve handling response. It has also ditched the earlier 300mm disc for a larger 320mm one. KTM has also revised the WP USD fork, switching to 37mm tubes. Rounding off the updates are tweaked rear foot pegs, redesigned grab rails for the pillion, and a new USB Type-C charging port.
Cosmetically, the new 200 Duke stands out with an Atlantic Blue colour scheme. The fuel tank and headlamp cowl sport an orange base, contrasted with blue highlights. This look is further enhanced with blue front fender and rear panels. While the silhouette remains the same, the graphics look are reminiscent of the 250 Duke.
The 2026 KTM 200 Duke has the same 199cc single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine that churns out a maximum power output of 25bhp and 19.3Nm, and is paired with a 6-speed gearbox.
