How It Stacks Up Against Rivals
KTM’s 2025 Adventure series will compete with Royal Enfield Himalayan 450, BMW G 310 GS, and the Yezdi Adventure. While the Himalayan offers a torque-rich 450cc engine, the BMW G 310 GS brings premium German engineering. KTM, however, leads with advanced electronics, lighter weight, and off-road-ready components.
The tubeless spoke wheels on the 390 Adventure set it apart, reducing the risk of punctures on rough terrains. The introduction of Cruise Control in this segment is also a first, making long-distance touring more comfortable.
Final Thoughts
The 2025 KTM Adventure range brings meaningful upgrades while keeping its aggressive pricing competitive. With better off-road capability, improved electronics, and a new 399cc engine in the 390 Adventure, KTM has upped its game in the ADV segment. However, the real-world performance, comfort, and service network will ultimately determine its success against established rivals.
