With the KTM 390 Duke now retailing at Rs 2,94,082, the Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 is Rs 5,267 cheaper, with a price tag of Rs 2,88,815 (ex-showroom, Delhi). This now robs the KTM 390 Duke of its superior value proposition, which has traditionally been one of its key selling points. Moreover, the Interceptor offers you a proper big-bike experience, thanks to its bigger and more powerful twin-cylinder engine.

KTM finally launched the 2022 390 Adventure last week and the new 2022 KTM RC390 should follow suit soon. Although the updated RC390 is yet to be officially launched, KTM had the model listed on its website for a brief period before taking it down. We managed to catch the 2022 RC390’s new price and features, coming your way.
