KTM RC 160 Now Available in Three Striking Color Schemes

KTM India has officially expanded the visual appeal of its popular entry-level supersport, the RC 160, by introducing two vibrant new color options. While the motorcycle was originally debuted in a single understated tone, riders now have a total of three distinct palettes to choose from, matching their personal style.

The bike continues to hold its competitive edge in the market with an ex-showroom price of Rs. 1.85 Lakh.

A Fresh Palette: Choosing Your Shade

The KTM RC 160 lineup now features a mix of stealthy and flashy designs to cater to different tastes:

Ceramic White Matte (New): This is undoubtedly the most eye-catching trim. It features a bold white base accented by signature orange and black graphics, topped off with high-viz orange alloy wheels.

Electronic Orange Matte (New): A vibrant choice for KTM purists. While the bodywork screams orange energy, it stays grounded with sleek black wheels for a balanced look.

Black (Original): For those who prefer a “dark knight” aesthetic, this version uses black body panels with subtle white and orange decals, offering a more mature and understated presence.

Performance and Engine Specs

At the heart of the RC 160 is a high-revving 164.2cc liquid-cooled engine. Engineered for those who love to push the needle, this SOHC motor is paired with a smooth 6-speed gearbox.+1
