Breaking: Prices For Zontes Motorcycles Announced

Impressive hardware and features at a reasonable sticker: sounds exciting!

Prices for the Zontes range of motorcycles will begin at Rs 3,15,000 for its 350R streetfighter and go up to Rs 3,67,000 (ex-showroom) for the 350T ADV. This is surely exciting because these motorcycles post (at least on paper) exciting performance figures and segment-first hardware and features, while commanding a slight premium over the competition. So here’s a quick glance at the prices for each of the five motorcycles in the Zontes stable.

The KTM 390 Duke is arguably the leader of the sub-400cc segment thanks to its unmatched performance, exhaustive electronics package, styling and most importantly, pricing… or at least it was, since at Rs 2.96 lakh (ex-showroom), it’s no longer as accessible.

For Rs 19,000 more you can get your hands on the Zontes 350R. Sure, its 348cc engine makes a bit less power than the 390 Duke (39.35PS and 32.8Nm) but in exchange, you get an uncommon design and cool features like keyless access, tyre pressure monitoring system, electrically operated fuel filler and seat lock, and screen mirroring on its 5-inch colour TFT screen.

It’s the same when you look at the 350T ADV, it costs Rs 30,000 more than the KTM 390 Adventure but gets unheard-of bits like tubeless wire-spoke rims, electrically adjustable windscreen at this price range.

It is for these reasons why we feel Zontes has managed to price its motorcycles rather well, especially considering these aren’t as localised as the KTM which is manufactured in India.
