KTM RC 160 Gets Two New Colours, Price Unchanged

The RC 160 has been updated with two new colour schemes in the form of Electronic Orange Matte and Ceramic White Matte

The RC 160 has jumped on the bandwagon of other popular KTM models such as Duke 200 and Duke 250 with two new colour schemes being rolled out in the Indian market. Besides retaining the existing Black paint shade, the company has introduced two new colourways for the RC 160 in the form of Electronic Orange Matte and Ceramic White Matte. Apart from the new colours, KTM RC 160 remains unchanged in terms of design, features and engine specs. Even the price for the new shades has been kept the same at Rs 1.85 lakh.

The 2026 KTM RC 160 was launched last month in the domestic market in India with a single colour. Now, it can be availed in a total of three colour schemes. The Electronic Orange Matte flaunts a bright shade of orange as typically seen in most KTM bikes as the base colour while the alloy wheels get black finish and graphics are also all-black.

As for the Ceramic White Matte, it features white as the base colour with black and orange graphics. The alloy wheels are finished in orange paint shade. So, basically it is a triple-tone colour combination of white, orange and black. KTM RC 160, the fully-faired motorcycle, is nearly Rs 15,000 more expensive than its naked sibling, which is the Duke 160 at Rs 1.60 lakh.

Sitting on a trellis frame with fully-faired sporty design, KTM RC 160 boasts of inverted 37 mm front forks and monoshock rear suspension. It rides on 17-inch alloy wheels which are fitted with 110/70-17 front and 140/60 R17 rear tubeless tyres. The stopping power comes from 320 mm front and 230 mm rear disc brakes, which work in combination with the dual-channel ABS.
