      2025 KTM 390 Adventure Enduro Spotted Again – New Details Emerge

      by

      2025 KTM 390 Adventure Enduro SpiedPowering the upcoming KTM 390 Adventure Enduro will be the same 399cc engine that does duty on the new KTM 390 Duke
      For off-road enthusiasts in India, KTM currently offers the 390 Adventure and 390 Adventure X. To facilitate more thrilling rides, KTM will soon bring the 390 Adventure Enduro model to India. Launch is expected later this year or in early 2025.
      2025 KTM 390 Adventure Enduro – What to expect?
      Earlier this year in March, KTM 390 Adventure Enduro was spotted testing for the first time in India. It was spotted alongside the new 390 Adventure that is also expected to be launched in the coming months.
      2025 KTM 390 Adventure Enduro Spied
      Latest spy shots reveal that 390 Adventure Enduro is undergoing some heavy testing during the monsoon season. With the amount of dust and debris on the test mule, it seems like the bike has been on a long, arduous journey. While spy shots are from an on-road environment, some off-road trails could have been on the bike’s travel plans.
      Even a quick glance is enough to conclude that KTM 390 Adventure Enduro is primed to conquer the most challenging trails. The Enduro is essentially a stripped-down version of the 390 Adventure. It has minimal fairing, no windscreen and a short tail section. Being lightweight, KTM 390 Enduro will have a higher power-to-weight ratio. The bike’s agile characteristics and overall control and handling are also improved with a lower weight profile.
      2025 KTM 390 Adventure Enduro Spied
      Some of the key features include a raised front fender, sleek LED headlight and LED turn signals and polygonal rear-view mirrors. The bike has a sculpted fuel tank, raised handlebar, flat seat design, toothed foot pegs and underbelly exhaust. Riding stance looks fairly comfortable, making the bike suitable for longer rides. Tech kit will include a simple LCD instrument display with Bluetooth connectivity. However, more advanced features such as turn-by-turn navigation may not be available.

      Both the new 390 Adventure and Adventure Enduro will be getting the 399cc, single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine. It is the same as in use with the KTM 390 Duke. Delivering 45 PS and 39 Nm, the engine is mated to a 6-speed gearbox. The engine could be tweaked to suit the bike’s ADV credentials.

      Talking about the core hardware, KTM 390 Adventure Enduro will borrow most of the components from the 390 Adventure. Front inverted forks have a long suspension travel, whereas a WP offset monoshock does duty at the rear. The test mule appears to be riding on 21-inch and 18-inch wheels at front and rear, respectively. Braking setup could comprise 320 mm front and 230 mm rear disc brakes. The brake lever will be an adjustable unit and the same could be true for the clutch lever as well.

      2025 Bajaj Pulsar N125 Spotted – Could Get New Improved Engine

      by

      2025 Bajaj Pulsar N125 SpiedUpon launch, Bajaj Pulsar N125 will take on rivals such as Hero Xtreme 125R, TVS Raider 125 and Honda SP 125
      Since the start of this year, Bajaj has been busy updating its bestselling Pulsar range. Enthusiasts were also delighted to witness the launch of the biggest Pulsar – NS400Z. Next upcoming product is the Pulsar N125.
      Bajaj Pulsar N125 – Key features
      Upcoming Pulsar N125 has been spotted on road tests multiple times in recent months. The 125cc commuter segment has been registering strong growth and can accommodate new products like Pulsar N125. Bajaj Pulsar 125cc range currently includes the Pulsar 125 and Pulsar NS125. Based on test mule sightings, it appears that Pulsar N125 borrows signature features seen with its larger sibling, the Pulsar N150.
      2025 Bajaj Pulsar N125 Spied
      Similarities are evident across features such as the sculpted fuel tank and tank shrouds, alloy wheel design and slim tail section. The bike has split seat format and gets a robust single-piece grab rail. Just like N150, Pulsar N125 gets an underbelly exhaust. The rear tyre hugger also seems to be a shared component.
      Features that are unique to Pulsar N125 include a new headlight design. The headlight and tail light appear to be LED units, whereas standard halogen bulbs have been used for the turn signals. Riding stance is fairly comfortable with centrally mounted footpegs and a wide, easy to reach handlebar.
      2025 Bajaj Pulsar N125 Spied
      Other key features noticed with the test mule include a leg guard and polygonal rear-view mirrors. The latter has a different design in comparison to that of the Pulsar N150. Tech pack will include a negative LCD instrument console. It could be the same unit as seen with the Pulsar N150. A range of information is displayed such as speedometer, odometer and distance to empty.
      2025 Bajaj Pulsar N125 Spied
      The digital console has Bluetooth connectivity, allowing users to access calls and text. Users can also access other connected features via the Bajaj Ride Connect app. However, Pulsar N125 is unlikely to get features like turn-by-turn navigation.
      Bajaj Pulsar N125 – Performance, specs
      It is expected that Pulsar N125 will be getting a new 125cc engine. While the existing 125cc engine in use with Pulsar 125 and Pulsar NS125 delivers good performance, there is definitely scope for some improvement. Especially considering that the existing 125cc engine hasn’t received any major updates in recent years. It seems a bit outdated when compared to 125cc engines in use with rival 125cc bikes.
      2025 Bajaj Pulsar N125 Spied
      Bajaj can introduce an entirely new 125cc engine or use a tweaked version of the 150cc engine in use with Pulsar N150. The new 125cc engine is expected to offer improved performance and possibly higher fuel efficiency as well.
      2025 Bajaj Pulsar N125 Spied
      As evident with the test mule, Pulsar N125 has telescopic forks at front and a monoshock rear suspension. Braking setup comprises a disc-drum combo. Upcoming Bajaj Pulsar N125 could be launched at a starting price of Rs 1 lakh. It is expected to go on sale during the upcoming festive season.

      Mahindra BE.05 Top Model Interiors, Exteriors Spied – Detailed Walkaround Video

      by

      Mahindra BE.05 Top Model SpiedWhen launched, Mahindra BE.05 will directly take on the just-launched Tata Curvv EV coupe SUV and we can expect similar pricing as well
      If there is one car brand in India that is known to radicalise new products, it has to be Mahindra. With a new global ambition, Mahindra is spawning a new born-electric range of vehicles. One of these vehicles is BE.05, which has been spied in a detailed walkaround video ahead of launch. Let’s take a look.
      Mahindra BE.05 Top Model
      Previous spy shots have already established that Mahindra BE.05 will get two distinct faces. One less premium, but more appealing, face for base model and then a striking fascia for top model with all the bells and whistles. Base model gets a circular LED projector headlight along with an eyebrow-like LED DRL above.
      Mahindra BE.05 Top Model
      Higher-spec models, on the other hand, get a more pronounced fascia with massive C-shaped LED DRLs and a sleeker LED headlight setup. The new spy video by Automobile With Bruce shows the top-spec model in all its glory. In this detailed walkaround video, we can see this car’s exteriors and a bit of its interiors.
      For starters, we have to get the size quotient out of the equation. Previous spy shots of BE.05 showed it alongside a Maruti Suzuki Dzire and it appeared to be a smaller sub 4m vehicle. Even the height looked like it was in line with Dzire. But in the new spy video, BE.05 appears to be taller than Hyundai Ioniq 5, charging beside it.
      Mahindra BE.05 Top Model
      Speculations point out that Mahindra BE.05 could be a compact-sized SUV with around 4.3m to 4.4m in length. It has an exaggerated and edgy version of a coupe roofline, ending in a radical-looking twin spoiler. Overall silhouette is extremely edgy and wild, something which will attract a lot of eyeballs.
      Notable exterior highlights include flush door handles at the front, C-pillar mounted door handles for rear, large aero wheels, low-profile tyres, all-four disc brakes, charging socket on rear left quarter panel, massive C-shaped LED DRLs and tail light signatures, Mahindra BE.05 has a lot of road presence too.
      Mahindra BE.05 Top Model Interiors
      Interiors spied
      The recent spy video also reveals a glimpse of the interiors. On the inside, Mahindra BE.05 packs a pronounced split between the two front occupants. This creates a sense of sportiness and lends a cockpit-like feel to drivers. Unlike the triple screens seen on XUV.e8 and XUV.e9, BE.05 only gets two screens.
      [embedded content]
      We can see both those screens operational in the video. These screens seem to be running an EV-specific UI. There is a new steering wheel too, which gets a backlit BE logo. Future iterations of test mules might get a HUD as well. Powertrains-wise, up to 60 kWh battery pack, single or dual motor layouts and up to 500 km of claimed range can be expected. It will rival the just launched Tata Curvv EV. More

      Mahindra BE.05 LED DRL In New Spy Shots – Their Smallest BEV SUV

      by

      Mahindra BE.05 LED DRLWhile Mahindra BE.05 might appear small, but it will still rival MG ZS EV, Tata Curvv EV and upcoming Maruti eVX and Hyundai Creta EV
      Among the five born electric vehicles showcased by Mahindra a couple of years back, three of them have been testing rigorously. The ones launching first are XUV.e8, XUV.e9 and BE.05. Recent spy shots from automotive enthusiast Yuvaraj shows production-spec lighting of top-spec BE.05 variant, fully lit-up. Let’s take a look.
      Mahindra BE.05 Production-Spec Lighting
      On the verge of introducing a global electric vehicle portfolio, Mahindra has formulated two new born-electric lineups – XUV.e and BE. There will be more lineups like this in the future like Thar.e, Scorpio.e and Bolero.e. Thar.e Concept was showcased recently in a recent Mahindra event in South Africa.
      Mahindra BE.05 LED DRL
      Sticking with BE.05, there have been two versions of it spied with unique design attributes. These are highly likely to be base and top models with equipment installed according to their respective price brackets. The one spied recently with its production-spec lighting on display, is the top model with outlandish LED signatures.
      As seen in the recent spy shots, Mahindra BE.05 gets large C-shaped LED DRLs at the front. These are so large that they cover almost all the vertical real estate of BE.05’s fascia. The design of BE.05 is flashy and futuristic and will feature an aerodynamic profile as well.
      Mahindra BE.05 LED DRL
      We can see a massive aero scoop in the bonnet which is likely to channel air efficiently. There are aerodynamic wheels too, which should reduce air drag. Side profile shows a stylish coupe-style roof line but with an edgy twist. This trend seems to be catching up in the Indian market.
      Mahindra BE.05 – Smallest BEV SUV from Mahindra
      From the rear, we can see a similar C-shaped LED signature around the tail lights which lends an aggressive appeal. Mahindra seems to be porting the twin roof spoiler design from concept to production as seen in these new spy shots.
      What to expect?
      On the inside, spy shots have confirmed that BE.05 will feature a similar interior layout as seen with its concept. There is a pronounced separation between the two front occupants, lending a cockpit-like feel to the driver. This ideology has never been implemented in a mainstream car in India. Ever! So, kudos to Mahindra.
      Mahindra BE.05 Charging Port?
      BE.05 will get just two 10.2-inch screens (one for infotainment and other for instrumentation), unlike the XUV.e8 and XUV.e9. Not that we need a third screen, anyway. Many of the interior elements will be shared with other Mahindra cars.
      Previous set of spy shots captured in front of a Maruti Suzuki Dzire suggests that BE.05 might be smaller than we expect it to be. More details will be revealed in the future. It will be positioned on the INGLO platform with around 60 kWh of battery. Launch might happen in 2025. More

      Royal Enfield Classic 350 Bobber Spied With Long U-Handlebar, Removable Pillion Seat

      by

      Royal Enfield Classic 350 BobberExcept for a few changes, Royal Enfield Classic 350 Bobber looks a lot like a standard Classic 350, without any wheelbase extensionIndia’s leading classic bike manufacturer, Royal Enfield, is testing its fifth motorcycle based on the tried and tested 350cc J platform. We’re talking about Classic 350 Bobber that will soon join Classic 350, Bullet 350, Meteor 350 and Hunter 350. Recent spy shots show more details. Let’s take a look.Royal Enfield Classic 350 Bobber SpiedThe iconic motorcycle manufacturer, Royal Enfield, has been on the verge of solidifying its 350cc lineup. In that regard, Royal Enfield just updated its best-selling bike, Classic 350, to MY24. The company will soon expand its 350cc portfolio to include a Bobber style motorcycle.Recent spy shots of this vehicle credited to Bullet Guru shows the upcoming motorcycle in a new angle. Seen from up top, these recent spy shots show upcoming Classic 350 Bobber’s rider and pillion seating arrangement. Fitting into Bobber style genre, upcoming Classic 350 Bobber will get a removable pillion seat.For starters, we can see a new rider’s seat on Classic 350 Bobber. It has greater contouring which should emerge as a more comfortable proposition than what is seen on Classic 350. Pillion seat, however, seems to be shorter in length, but wider than the one seen in Classic 350.Royal Enfield Classic 350 Bobber Patent Image LeakedThere is an incline with pillion seat on upcoming Bobber too, which could lend a sportier feeling. This pillion seat will be removable. We can see an indent in rider’s seat where the key hole might be positioned. A similar setup is seen on Royal Enfield Shotgun 650 too. But the keyhole on Shotgun is in pillion seat.New additions seen with 2024 Classic 350 will make their way into Classic 350 Bobber. Where pricing is concerned, Classic 350 Bobber will be positioned on top of Classic 350. New componentry includes a taller handlebar along with white-walled tyres that could be specifically made for this motorcycle.Removable pillion seatRoyal Enfield has explained the procedure of removing and adding pillion seat and rear subframe in a 9 minute video. The process is slightly tedious and requires playing with crucial bolts on the chassis and requiring certain prescribed torque for tightening these bolts.Royal Enfield Goan 350 – Likely to be name of Classic 350 BobberGoing by recent developments with Royal Enfield motorcycles, this seat changing process is better to get done at Royal Enfield service station. Powertrains-wise, Classic 350 Bobber will continue to offer the same J-Series 349cc single-cylinder air-cooled engine with 20.2 bhp and 27 Nm, mated to a 5-speed gearbox.Except for the white-walled tyres, removable pillion seat and the taller handlebar, there are no major differentiating factors when compared to a Classic 350. Even though it doesn’t look like it, we hope there is a longer wheelbase with Classic 350 Bobber. Launch is likely to happen by 2024 end or in 2025.Source More

      Mahindra BE.05 Spied Next To Dzire – Could Be A Sub-4m-SUV

      by

      Mahindra BE.05 Electric SUVAmong Mahindra’s BE range of electric cars, the BE.05 will be the smallest in size and have the lowest pricingMahindra has revealed 5 new electric SUVs, based on the born-electric INGLO platform. These are broadly classified into XUV and BE range. Test mules have been spotted frequently in recent months.Mahindra BE.05 spotted next to DzireLatest spy shots reveal interesting details about the size of BE.05. In its concept form, BE.05 was presented as a 4,370 mm long SUV. With that size, BE.05 is slotted into the compact SUV segment. But in this recent sighting, BE.05 can be seen alongside a Maruti Dzire sedan that is 3,995 mm in length. While BE.05 appears taller and has larger alloy wheels, the length seems to be almost the same as Dzire.Mahindra BE.05 Electric SUVIt’s difficult to arrive at a definitive conclusion, since images are known to trick the mind via optical illusion. A difference of 37 cm can be tough to identify, especially when the image has been taken from a distance. Camera angle can easily alter the perception of size. If one car is slightly angled or positioned in a way that affects visual comparison, it could skew the apparent size difference.Dimensional details of the production-spec BE.05 are not available at this point of time. In other aspects such as design and styling and equipment list, Mahindra has closely matched the features seen with the concept model.Mahindra BE.05 Electric SUVTop-spec variants of BE.05 have quirky C-shaped LED DRLs, sculpted body panelling, squared-off wheel arches and a coupe-like sloping roofline. The design at the rear also focuses on C-shaped light signatures.Mahindra BE.05 Electric SUVMahindra BE.05 interiorsWith the cockpit space clearly segmented in the middle, BE.05 promises a distinct cabin experience for the driver and front passenger. Most of the features seen with the concept are available with the production version. Some of the key highlights include a hexagonal steering wheel and integrated infotainment and instrument screens. Fabric upholstery has been used, most likely made from recyclable materials.Centre console has a circular dial that is likely for terrain modes or drive modes. A big gear selector and electronic parking brake will also be there on the centre console. Digital sliders will be available to control volume, brightness and sunroof. Test mules have confirmed the presence of ventilated seats. Bronze highlights have been used liberally all across the cockpit section.Mahindra BE.05 Electric SUVMahindra BE.05 – Specs, rangeBE.05 is expected to get a battery pack of around 60 kWh capacity. While base variants will have RWD, top-spec variants could deliver a more exhilarating performance with an all-wheel drive setup. Mahindra had revealed that SUVs based on the INGLO platform will be able to achieve 0 to 100 km/h in just around 5-6 seconds. INGLO-based SUVs will also offer class-leading range. Top-variants of BE.05 could have a range of around 450 km. Enhanced aerodynamics and advanced regen system will help optimize range. More

      2025 Mahindra XUV400 EV Spied With XUV3XO Design – Is It Getting Smaller Sub 4m Size?

      by

      2025 Mahindra XUV400 EV SpiedFacelifted Mahindra XUV400 EV will primarily rival Tata Nexon EV – It will also take on upcoming EVs from Maruti and HyundaiBeing at the top of India’s SUV game, Mahindra knows that it has to continually evolve with changing times and buyer trends. The company recently updated its aging XUV300 in a major overhaul inside and out. This very treatment is also incoming with XUV400. Will it be called XUV400 facelift? Or XUV4XO EV? That isn’t known yet.2025 Mahindra XUV400 EV SpiedGiven Mahindra’s strategies with XUV300 and XUV400, there is a very good chance that the company will carry over XUV3XO’s fascia to XUV4XO EV or XUV400 facelift (name not confirmed). Spy video by PowerStrokePS shows the same approach. The fascia, however, will continue to split opinions.2025 Mahindra XUV400 EV SpiedSaid test mule is fully covered in camouflage, and we could see identical front design on this vehicle as an XUV3XO. There are three grill openings on this particular test mule, just like XUV3XO. Final production version of XUV400 EV facelift might feature unique bumpers and closed-off grill designs.The main attribute that establishes this test mule as an electric offering is a charging port on front left quarter panel. Similar positioning as seen on current XUV400. Alloy wheels look like they are identical to the ones on XUV3XO. These are 17-inchers and have twin 5-spoke design pattern.2025 Mahindra XUV400 EV SpiedThe big surprise?There is, however, a major revelation seen on this test mule that we weren’t expecting at all. If we took XUV300 and XUV400, there would be a size difference between those two vehicles. XUV3XO is a hair under 4 meters in length, while XUV400 is 4.2 meters in length, as it didn’t have to meet B Segment length constraints.2025 Mahindra XUV400 EV SpiedIt seems that is not the case with upcoming XUV400 facelift. This one is looking like a sub 4m in length, just like XUV3XO. The only real benefit of XUV400 over XUV300 was boot space. But XUV3XO has a larger boot space (on paper) that is enough to rival Nexon EV. Thus negating the need of making a longer vehicle.This step will also ensure manufacturing efficiency and cost effectiveness in production. Every single body panel of XUV3XO can be used on XUV4XO. Safety features like 360-camera, Level-2 camera based ADAS, 5 Stars crash rating structure 6 airbags, TCS, ESP, all-four disc brakes along with LED lighting all around, will be identical to XUV3XO.2025 Mahindra XUV400 EV SpiedWhat to expect?On the inside, upcoming Mahindra XUV4XO EV will pack all the features as XUV3XO. We’re talking about soft touch materials, LED interior lights, 10.2-inch infotainment and instrument screens, wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, panoramic sunroof, dual-zone climate control, push button start, leatherette seats and others.[embedded content]Powertrains-wise, Mahindra XUV4XO EV might come equipped with the same 34.5 kWh (375 km range) and 39.4 kWh (456 km range) battery options as XUV400. The same 148 bhp and 310 Nm single electric motor as XUV400 is likely too. Launch might happen later this year or in 2025.Also read – Mahindra Thar Roxx teaser confirms new features More
