As expected, the 457 platform has now churned out another new model and this is most beloved of the lot! It’s the most non-conformist and rebellious Tuono that has ever been, and whilst it retains the core features of all Tuono bikes, the new model boasts an all-new look, which is a hit or a miss. The bike has been designed with completely new agenda and demographic in mind. It is distinguished by its record-breaking power/weight ratio (just 159 kg dry weight for 35kW of power) – the maximum possible for a motorbike that can be ridden with an A2 licence – for an extremely fun and dynamic ride that is also easy and accessible to all.
The technical features are top of the range: aluminium frame (the only one of its kind in this segment) and cutting-edge electronics, including Ride by Wire throttle, three Riding Modes, ABS and traction control. The Tuono 457 is powered by a generous latest-generation parallel twin-cylinder engine with a maximum power of 35 kW (47.6 hp) at 9,400 rpm and torque of 43.5 Nm at 6,700 rpm, 82% of which is already available at 3,000 rpm. Expect India launch in a few months as it is made in India for the world.
