KTM 160 Duke WIth TFT Display Launched At ₹1,78,536 - Nearly ₹8k More Than LCD Version
KTM has expanded the 160 Duke lineup in India with the launch of a new variant equipped with a 5-inch colour TFT display, strengthening its feature offering in the entry-level performance segment while continuing to retail the standard LCD-equipped base version.
The KTM 160 Duke TFT display variant is priced at ₹1,78,536, while the base variant is priced at ₹1,70,545, both ex-showroom Delhi. The new variant commands a premium for added rider technology and connected features.
The newly introduced 5-inch colour TFT display for the 160 Duke has been derived from the Gen-3 KTM 390 Duke and features bonded glass construction. The unit offers improved visibility and a richer interface compared to the standard LCD cluster.
The TFT display is paired with a new switch cube featuring four-way menu controls, allowing riders to interact easily with vehicle functions, settings, and smartphone connectivity directly from the left handlebar while riding.
Through Bluetooth pairing with the KTM My-Ride app, the TFT display enables turn-by-turn navigation, providing route guidance directly on the instrument screen. KTM Connect acts as a digital bridge between the motorcycle and the rider's smartphone.
The KTM Connect app also delivers access to ride data, travel information, and other motorcycle-related insights, positioning the TFT display as a central communication interface throughout everyday riding and longer journeys.
Bluetooth connectivity allows incoming call alerts to be displayed on the TFT screen, with riders able to accept or reject calls using the mode switch. As a safety measure, outgoing calls and address book access remain disabled while riding.
With a paired Bluetooth helmet headset, riders can control music playback through the TFT display, toggle tracks, adjust volume, and view track information, all operated via the left handlebar-mounted menu switch.
The TFT display also enables access to Supermoto ABS mode, which disengages rear wheel ABS braking. This function is intended for specific riding scenarios such as controlled slides or Supermoto-style riding environments.
Riders can customise shift RPM and limit RPM settings, triggering a visual change between dark and orange display themes. The screen layout, menu shortcuts, and information panels can also be customised based on rider preference.
The KTM 160 Duke continues to be positioned as a youth-focused street motorcycle offering a strong power-to-weight ratio and aggressive styling. The addition of the TFT display further elevates its technology package within the segment.
Speaking on the update, Manik Nangia, President, Probiking said, "With the new TFT display, the KTM 160 Duke becomes even more intuitive and engaging to ride. This upgrade reinforces KTM's focus on combining sharp performance with advanced rider technology in an accessible package."
