The 2023 KTM 390 Adventure X has been launched in India at an introductory starting price of Rs 2.80 lakh, ex-showroom. Bookings for the same are open and its deliveries will begin soon.

At this price point, the new X variant costs a whopping Rs 59,000 less than the standard 390 ADV which currently retails at Rs 3.39 lakh, ex-showroom. However, it does miss out on a host of features.
-
For instance, the 390 ADV X gets an LCD display without Bluetooth connectivity instead of the multi-colour TFT console. The other omissions include traction control, quick-shifter and cornering ABS.
-
The hardware bits, however, remain unchanged. It gets USD front forks and a mono-shock absorber at the rear. Braking duties are performed by disc brakes at either end with dual-channel ABS.

Powering the 2023 KTM 390 Adventure X is a 373.2cc, single-cylinder, liquid-cooled, fuel-injected engine that develops 43 bhp and 37 Nm of peak torque. The engine comes mated to a 6-speed gearbox and gets an assist & slipper clutch.

The new KTM 390 Adventure X is a brilliant alternative to the standard 390 ADV for someone who wants a no-frills motorcycle with good performance. It will take on the likes of the Royal Enfield Himalayan, BMW G 310 GS, etc.
