2021 Benelli Imperiale 400 has been introduced at a new price of Rs 1.89 lakh (ex-showroom). Compared to the old model, which was priced at Rs 1.99 lakh, the new one is around Rs 10,000 more affordable. The bikemaker says that the increased localization and stronger Rupee value against the Dollar enabled it to reduce its prices. The company also offers a 2 year/unlimited km warranty along with a 2 year extended warranty and roadside assistance.
No other changes have been made to the motorcycle. The 2021 Benelli Imperiale 400 continues to use a 374cc, single-cylinder, air-cooled engine, paired to a 5-speed gearbox. The motor pushes out a peak power of 20.71bhp at 6,000rpm and 29Nm of torque at 3,500rpm. Its suspension setup includes 41mm telescopic fork at the front and twin shock absorbers at the rear. Braking power comes from front and rear disc brakes, which are further assisted by dual-channel ABS (anti-lock braking system).
The 2021 Benelli Imperiale 400 carries the same retro-styled design elements include a round front headlamp and a teardrop tank. Some of its key features include a pearshooter-type exhaust, split seats and a twin-pod instrument cluster. The model comes in a choice of three colours – Red, Black and Silver.
Talking about Benelli’s future plant, the company will roll out a range of new models by mid 2021. While the bikemaker hasn’t yet revealed the product names and details, it’s likely to include Benelli TRK 502, TRK 502X, TNT 600i, 3025, 302R, Leoncino 500 and Leoncino 250. The 2021 Benelli TRK 502 will be the first one to arrive in the market.
The middleweight ADV has been priced at Rs 4.79 lakh for the Grey colour model and Rs 4.89 lakh for the White and Red paint scheme. These are introductory prices. Official bookings of the updated model have already been commenced at a token sum of Rs 10,000.
