KTM Launches ORANGE XP-160 Track Experience Program

 KTM has unveiled ORANGE XP-160, a track-based experiential program designed to allow prospective buyers and motorcycle enthusiasts to test ride the KTM 160 Duke in a controlled environment under expert supervision.

The initiative launches in Pune on November 29, 2025, and will subsequently roll out across more than 40 towns throughout India, representing one of the motorcycle manufacturer's most extensive experiential campaigns in the country.

ORANGE XP-160 will be conducted on go-kart tracks in participating cities, providing riders with access to a safe, supervised environment to experience the motorcycle's capabilities. The program includes guided riding sessions where KTM expert riders demonstrate and coach participants on cornering techniques, braking, throttle control, and body positioning.

The experience also features interactive zones designed to test participants' racing reflexes, agility, and on-track skills through various challenges.

The KTM 160 Duke features a 164.2cc single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine that produces 19 PS of power and 15.5 Nm of torque. The motorcycle is part of KTM's Naked Street portfolio, which currently includes four models ranging from 160cc to 400cc.

Manik Nangia, President of Pro-Biking at Bajaj Auto Ltd, stated that the track environment provides the most authentic setting for experiencing the Duke 160's agility and precision. He emphasized that the program aims to bring KTM's performance focus directly to India's emerging motorcyclist demographic.

KTM entered the Indian market in 2012 and has since expanded to over 450 sales and service outlets nationwide. India currently represents KTM's largest global market, with nearly half a million customers. The brand operates through a partnership with Bajaj Auto Limited, established in 2007.
