Keeway India has finally launched its flagship 250cc cruiser, the Keeway K-Light 250V. The motorcycle is priced at Rs 2,89,000 for the Matte Blue colour variant, Rs 2,99,000 for the Matte Dark Grey and Rs 3,09,000 for the Matte Black colour variants. All prices are introductory and are ex-showroom India. Bookings were already open on the company’s official website for Rs 10,000, and the deliveries will commence from mid-July. Keeway also offers a two-year unlimited km warranty as standard.
Even though the above prices are introductory, they are still a lot expensive for what the bike offers. The K-Light 250V’s 249cc, air-cooled V-twin engine churns out a meagre 18.95PS and 19Nm. Comparatively, its closest rival, the Bajaj Avenger 220 Cruise, despite packing a single-cylinder air-oil-cooled engine, produces a healthy 19.03PS and 17.55Nm. The K-Light’s motor is paired to a 5-speed transmission linked to a belt final drive.
Notable features include an all-LED lighting system, a generous 20-litre fuel tank, and more importantly, the Keeway Connect smartphone connectivity. This integrated GPS unit with SIM card connects to the Keeway smartphone app, using which the rider can access features including bike location broadcast, remote engine cut-off, geo-fence, ride records, maximum speed limit, and sharing location information with friends. There’s also a panic button that can transmit real-time location to two preset contacts via the app, and also sets the process to avail roadside assistance.

If you’re looking for twin-cylinder alternatives, the Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 is not only less expensive at Rs 2,88,814 (ex-showroom Delhi), but is also a whole lot more powerful. Other less expensive, more powerful cruiser alternatives to the K-Light 250V include the Royal Enfield Meteor 350 and the Yezdi Roadster.
