Some significant electrical features, like the traction control system (TCS), a quickshifter, and cornering ABS, have been removed from the recently released 390 Adventure X. The manufacturer still provides a dual-channel ABS system, a digital LCD instrument cluster, and other amenities. The new 390 Adventure X has the same bodywork, LED headlamp, USD forks, alloy wheels, and other components as its normal variant. The braking duties are done by 320 mm disc at front and a 280 mm disc at the rear.
The brand has not changed the engine specifications; it still comes with a 373.27cc engine that has a maximum output of 37 Nm and 43 bhp. A 6-speed gearbox with a slipper clutch is included with the engine. With the latest variation, the KTM 390's price tag now is under Rs 3 lakh, making it a more appealing option for those wishing to get a quality ADV for less than Rs 3 lakh.
