2023 KTM Adventure 250 is now available in Nepal. KTM finally revealed an all-new motorcycle after the recent uplift on the import ban above 150cc 2-wheelers.
This smallest ADV from the Austrian brand initially entered the Nepalese market back in 2021. After the official launch, it became an instant success in the adventure tourer category before being out of stock.
Now, Hansraj Hulaschand & Co. Pvt. Ltd, the sole authorized distributor of KTM bikes in Nepal brought it back with new updates. Interestingly, the company also has set the pricing aggressively.
At the moment, KTM 250 Adventure price in Nepal is Rs. 7,49,900. It is much cheaper when compared with the previous iteration.
KTM Nepal has already opened bookings which we will talk about later in this post.
With that said, let's dive into a detailed overview of the latest KTM Adventure 250 along with highlight features and complete specifications.
KTM 250 Adventure Overview
The KTM 250 Adventure is a lightweight travel enduro motorcycle that is ideal for commuting and off-road riding. Furthermore, this sleek, powerful, and quick all-rounder will keep running for a long time even when the terrain becomes a little rougher.
Looks
The looks of the KTM Adventure 250 remain unchanged from the previous version. It gets the same bigger fuel tank, a larger seat for the rider and pillion, and a more comfortable, touring-friendly riding configuration.
The bike still features a halogen headlamp with LED DRL instead of a full-LED setup. You will also get a similar side appearance in this adventure motorcycle.
The major difference is in the paint scheme. KTM is now offering 250 Adventure in new two color options: The Factory Racing Blue and Electric Orange.
Performance
KTM 250 Adventure continues to be powered by the 250cc, liquid-cooled, single-cylinder, FI engine. As a result, there are no changes in power figures and delivers a peak power of 29.91PS at 9000rpm and max torque of 24Nm at 7500rpm.
This BS6-compliant motor is identical to its street-naked sibling, Duke 250.
