2026 KTM 250 Duke Launched With New Colours
2 new colours, both look pretty subtle
The 2026 KTM 250 Duke has been launched, and it comes with two new colour schemes. It is priced at Rs 2,13,618 (ex-showroom, Delhi). As a part of the 2026 update, the new colours include: Silver Metallic and Slate Grey.
The newly added colours join the existing range of colours including Electronic Orange, Atlantic Blue and Ebony Black, bringing the total colours to five.
What’s Different?
The Silver Metallic colour gives a clean look to the motorcycle, with a black finish on the tank and silver finish on the tank extensions. The Slate Grey features dark grey on the tank panels and orange accent on the tank. Both the new colour has a ‘250’ sticker on the tank panel along with a tiny Duke logo at the edge of the tank extensions. This same graphic treatment can be seen with the Ebony Black version. Both colours get blacked-out wheels, so the only colour option with orange wheels continues to be Atlantic Blue.
What’s Same?
Apart from these new colour additions, the Duke 250 doesn’t see any other changes. Mechanically, it is powered by the same 249cc, single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine producing 31PS and 25Nm, paired with a 6-speed gearbox.
The Duke 250 comes with a USD fork and a monoshock, it also features dual-channel ABS (with SuperMoto mode to switch off the rear ABS), and disc brakes at both ends. Feature highlight includes a 5-inch TFT screen showing essential details like gear position indicator, trip meter, fuel range, turn-by-turn navigation with Bluetooth connectivity, ride-by-wire, bi-directional quickshifter.
While the updated Duke 250 gets two new colour options, the two-wheeler manufacturer also just launched the updated KTM 200 Duke with lots of changes apart from a new colour.

- is segment mai sabse badiya bike hai mileage is goodSmall body but power is cool and this bike design is wow and suspension is very smooth. The best part of bike is quick shifter, bike is very cool. look at the tyre size / front and back tyre size is so good. Long trip ke liya sabse best bike hai or comfort to kya he hai front tyre ka size sabse cool lga or back tyre ka size to sabse behtar hai or seat cowl wow long ride mai hip mai no pain and best part of head light wow aggressive look like a beast.

- Genuine review Duke 250 after 7 monthsDuke 250 design is what got me flabbergasted. value for money is great. Good looking bike with mischievous intent if you twist the throttle, manageable maintenance cost, best in class features like ride bidirectional quick shifter, TFT display, phone connectivity, best braking in segment. You can flick the bike with great reflex, you'll get a good average if you keep it between 60-80 at 6k -8k RPM, I'm getting around 35 kmpl and if i rev it upto 10k I'll be getting 24-26 kmpl average. My Only concerns are the headlight projection is not that good but adjustable, and the seat is stiff, not for long travel and comfort but to dominate. If your looking for a bike with stealth and road presence this is the bike, I had shortlisted duke 390 also but at last i got 250 because it's more practical with good power delivery and decent milage and look wise both are around same except for features.Read More12 6
