The new Tiger XCx is priced at $16,590 (plus on-road costs). The others in the range are the Tiger XC $16,590, XR $15,099 and XRx $16,590, all with traction control, switchable ABS and Ride by Wire technology.

The XR is road focussed and the XC is aimed at off-road and both come with range-topping “x” models featuring cruise control as standard and three riding modes to control throttle maps, ABS, and traction control.

The XC also now comes with Austrian WP suspension which has made the KTM off-roaders so tough yet complaint over rough terrain.

The three-cylinder engines are now tweaked for substantially better fuel economy, down to 4.3L/100km from 5.1L/100km.
