KTM has launched its updated 250 Duke in India with upgrades on the mechanical & cosmetic front. The 2023 KTM Duke costs Rs. 2.39 Lakhs, available for booking in India starting at Rs. 4,499.
The 2023 KTM Duke 250 lies in the quarter-litre segment. This segment has been witnessing a huge demand in India over the last few years. The surging demand has stimulated competition among top manufacturers in the Indian market. Therefore, several top two-wheeler manufacturers have introduced their products in this segment.
As the 2023 KTM Duke 250 will compete with bikes like the Suzuki Gixxer 250 & Husqvarna Svartpilen, it won’t be easy for the KTM to avail Indian customers.
So, let’s have a detailed comparison between the top two 250 CC bikes, the 2023 KTM Duke 250 & Suzuki Gixxer 250.
The 2023 KTM Duke 250 costs Rs. 2.39 Lakhs in India. Whereas the price for the Suzuki Gixxer 250 ranges between Rs. 1.82 Lakhs and Rs. 1.98 Lakhs, making it less expensive than the 2023 KTM Duke 250.
The 2023 KTM Duke 250 is powered by a 249.07 cc single-cooled, DOHC engine paired with a six-speed transmission with a quick-shifter. The engine delivers 30.5 bhp of max power @ 9,250 rpm & 25 NM of max torque at 7,250 rpm. The KTM also promises the best-ever power-to-weight ratio.
On the contrary, a 249 cc single-cylinder, oil-cooled engine, paired with a six-speed gearbox, powers the Suzuki Gixxer 250. The engine delivers 26.13 bhp of max power at 9,300 rpm & 22.2 NM of max torque at 7,300 rpm.
The comparison between these key specifications makes the 2023 KTM Duke 250 slightly better than the Suzuki Gixxer 250. However, when it comes to price, Suzuki Gixxer 250 wins the deal. This analysis makes it a win-win situation for Indian customers.
