All New 2017 Benelli TNT 15 Naked will be a class apart but still has competition waiting for and has the chance to mark its presence in India
Benelli worldwide is on roll. The manufacturer is churning out more and more products in the low to middle weight segment. We saw the quarter litre 250cc motorcycle coming in, we saw the 500cc engine equipped motorcycles in different form and function, the 302 Torando is set for launch in India, which is a faired version of the 300 TNT and other plans now seem to include to bringing back the TNT 15. A very sport naked from the brand that could change the market in most Asian countries and in India as well. The motorcycle has been teased in the video and when compared to the old model, it is light years ahead and a lot more premium.
2017 Benelli TNT 15 Design and Dimensions
The design is another highlight of the package as it gets signature red trellis frame, white paint scheme, slim and large headlights with LED DRL’s and a compact and raised tail-section with most likely LED units in the tail-lamps. The exhaust has been revised, the handlebars are now flatter, all of which gives it a sportier look.
2017 Benelli TNT 15 Chassis, suspension and brakes
The highlight of the all new TNT 15 lies here. There is a new trellis frame being offered with upside down forks, monoshock at the rear and petal disc at the front and rear. Previous TNT 15 was bare basic and was a commuter, not the case with the old one.
2017 Benelli TNT 15 Price and Launch
We expect the price to be around just under the Rs. 1.0 lakh mark when it comes to India.
