Expected Launch and Pricing in India
CFMoto is planning to launch the 450MT in India around the festive season of 2025. With the growing popularity of adventure motorcycles, this bike is expected to be priced competitively in the range of ₹4 lakh to ₹4.3 lakh (ex-showroom).
In terms of competition, the Royal Enfield Himalayan 450, KTM 390 Adventure, and the upcoming BMW F450GS are its closest rivals. However, if CFMoto prices the 450MT aggressively, it could emerge as an attractive alternative for adventure enthusiasts.
Final Thoughts
With its powerful engine, premium hardware, and feature-loaded package, the CFMoto 450MT is set to make a strong impact in the Indian ADV segment. If priced aggressively, it could offer an excellent alternative to its established rivals. Stay tuned for more updates on this exciting launch!
