Aprilia has updated the official Indian website and added new Aprilia superbikes to the website. The brand has added, the 2021 Aprilia RSV4, RSV4 Factory, Tuono V4 and Tuono V4 Factory to the website. This leads us to believe that the brand is planning to launch the superbikes soon in the Indian market.
The 2021 Aprilia RSV4 and the Tuono V4 features the brand latest design language. This new design made its debut on the Aprilia RS 660 and Tuono 660. The brand’s cross max scooter line-up, the SXR 160 and SXR 125 which were recently launched in India also features the global design language.
The new design features sleek LED headlamps in Aprilia’s hallmark triple setup and sharp front fairing. The brand has also extensively worked in the aerodynamics department to improve the efficiency of air flowing over the motorcycle. Thus the new bodywork comes with aero winglets integrated into the fairing.
The motorcycle also features updates in the ergonomics departments and Aprilia boasts that the new RSV4 and Tuono V4 offer a Natural and Relaxed position. While off-course the Tuono V4 is much more relaxed compared to the RSV4 but both motorcycles look similar in design. The Tuono V4 comes with a half fairing a taller touring style windscreen, straight handlebars instead of clip-on bars on the RSV4.
Both motorcycles come with the same new chassis architecture and a new aluminium swingarm with a reinforcement brace. Both motorcycles also come with high-performance parts such as semi-active Ohlins Smart EC 2.0 as standard. The motorcycles come with a triple-LED light cluster, perimeter LED daytime running lights, and “bending lights” function (Cornering Lights). The Aprilia RSV4 and Tuono V4 also feature a new TFT instruments cluster, a Ride-by-Wire throttle, a six-axis inertial unit, a new Marelli 11MP ECU and refined APRC operating logic.
The 2021 Aprilia RSV4 comes with a Euro5 spec 1,099cc V4 engine with a larger displacement. The engine also features a new exhaust system and is the world’s first mass-produced narrow V4 engine. The Aprilia RSV4 produces 217 PS of power and 125 Nm of torque. The Tuono V4 comes with a Euro5 spec 1,077cc V4 engine that produces 175 PS of power and 121 Nm of torque.
