From Aprilia, Ducati, and Hero – Here’s what’s coming this month
February of 2025 is set to be an exciting month for motorcycle enthusiasts, with several exciting bike launches expected this month. We have compiled a list of bikes which are likely to launch this February including naked bikes, sportbikes and ADVs. Let’s have a closer look at these bikes:
Aprilia Tuono 457
The highly awaited Aprilia Tuono 457 is expected to launch on February 17, 2025 as the brand has sent us an invite for two days – February 17th and 18th. We think that the Tuono 457 will be launched on the 17th and we will get to ride it the next day.
The Tuono 457 is powered by the same 457cc, liquid-cooled, parallel-twin cylinder engine as the Aprilia RS 457. The engine delivers a peak output of 47.55PS and 43.5Nm. It is mated to a 6-speed gearbox with a slip-and-assist clutch as standard. The Tuono 457 features the same 5-inch TFT instrument console with smartphone connectivity. It offers turn-by-turn navigation with call and SMS alerts. It also gets switchable traction control, switchable rear ABS and 3 riding modes (Eco, Sport and Rain).
Karizma XMR 210 Combat Edition
Hero MotoCorp is expected to launch the Karizma XMR 210 Combat Edition in India this month. The bike features a Nardo Grey paint scheme and a gold-finished inverted fork. The Hero Karizma XMR Combat Edition was also showcased at the Auto Expo 2025 in January 2025. The upcoming Hero Karizma XMR Combat Edition gets the same 210cc, liquid-cooled, single-cylinder engine as the standard variant that makes 25.5PS and 20.4Nm, paired with a 6-speed transmission and a slip-and-assist clutch.
Karizma XMR 250
Hero may also launch the bigger Karizma XMR 250 in India very soon. The bike was also showcased at the Auto Expo last month. The new Hero Karizma XMR 250 has a similar design language as the smaller Karizma XMR, but has a bulkier bodywork and different graphics which make it stand out. It even has the same instrument console as the Karizma XMR. The Karizma XMR 250 is powered by a bigger 250cc, liquid-cooled, single-cylinder engine producing 30PS and 25Nm.
2025 Ducati Panigale V4
Ducati India is expected to launch the 2025 Panigale V4 in India this February. The Italian manufacturer also teased the bike a few days back. The new Ducati Panigale V4 features a refreshed front-end design making it even more aerodynamic and aggressive than before. The bike also gets new fairings and winglets which provide enhanced airflow and better cooling.
The 2025 Panigale V4 is powered by a 1,103cc Desmosedici Stradale V4 engine that makes a maximum output of 216PS and 120.9Nm. It is paired with a slip-and-assist clutch and a bidirectional quickshifter as standard. It also gets a 6.9-inch TFT instrument console with a 1280x480 resolution. It also offers smartphone connectivity features via Bluetooth.
2025 Ducati DesertX Discovery
The Ducati DesertX Discovery is a more capable tourer variant of the DesertX and is likely to be launched this month. It features a similar design as the DesertX, and is equipped with a taller visor, crash guards and aluminium panniers that make it look like a proper Adventure bike. It also gets heated grips to keep your hands warm while riding in winter or through cold places. The DesertX Discovery has a 937cc, liquid-cooled, V-twin engine which produces a peak output of 110PS and 92Nm. This engine is mated to a 6-speed gearbox.
User Reviews
- tuono 457 ( personal opinion)Stance and appearance. it was expensive but the test ride felt awesome, the engine was punchy but i had concerns about mileage, but the thrill it gives way above all the expenses that occur. I personally use it as daily but my dad uses it sometimes, says he gets little scared due to acceleration. It's a punchy engine making it fun for rides with friends and also a tractable engine for daily runs. It has 2 downsides which, i think must be fixed, the suspension does not feel good (prolly due to Bangalore roads). and brake works good but does not feel good. yes, i would recommend this bike, especially for enthusiasts. its a good daily (except low mileage) and a fun highway bike. I just love to ride it. It fills you with spirit and if there is a feeling i would like others to have its this.Read More
