With the Auto Expo 2016 coming up in a few months, there is one manufacturer that is all set to take centre stage and blow competition away. DSK Benelli stole the show at the EICMA 2015 with the Leoncino, TRK 502 and the Tornado 302. They are now is all set to do the same at the Auto Expo 2016. DSK Benelli has confirmed that they will indeed unveil all the three models of which the Tornado 302 and the TRK 502 will be launched in India later that year. With DSK Benelli making a strong impact in the mid-size segment already with the TNT 600 range and the TNT 300, the addition of the TRK 502 and the Tornado 302 will surely spoil customers for choice.

The DSK Benelli Tornado 302 is a motorcycle that takes on the name from a legendary bike in the history books of Benelli. Primarily based on the existing TNT 300, the Tornado 302 is sure to gather a lot of attention. The full faired design is a nice mix of new age straight lines and an overall classic shape that reminds you of motorcycles from a bygone era. The engine remains the same as that on the TNT 300 but is at a different state of tune. It produces 36 HP at 12000 RPM and 27 Nm at 9000 RPM, numbers that should suit the sporty looking character of the motorcycle. It is highly likely that DSK Benelli will include ABS as a standard option on the Tornado 302.

The DSK Benelli TRK 502 is the motorcycle that we are most excited about. We have been going on and on about the potential of the middle weight adventure market and finally we see a proper adventure motorcycle in this segment. The DSK Benelli TRK 502 can become “the” go to motorcycle for anyone looking for a proper touring companion that can handle any sort of terrain. The engine on the TRK 502 is a 500cc liquid cooled parallel twin that produces 47 HP at 8500 RPM and 45 Nm at 4500 RPM. These numbers are a perfect of mix of power and efficiency making the TRK 502 the best companion for an adventure tourer in this part of the world. From what we can see as of now it does look like the TRK 502 can handle some serious off-road action as well.

Lots to look forward to at this Auto Expo 2016 and we are sure that DSK Benelli will be the manufacturer to watch out for.
