- KTM is celebrating its 2026 Dakar victory with the Rally Replica
- A special Luciano Benavides Factory edition also revealed
- To be limited to just over 100 units
The KTM brand has marked its triumph in the 2026 Dakar rally with the release of two limited editions of the 450 Rally Replica model, with one being the Luciano Benavides edition. The cost of these bikes is extremely high, as expected. The regular version will be restricted to only about 100 bikes and will cost £33,148 (about Rs. 42.44 lakh).
This motorcycle is developed from the winning Dakar race platform of KTM that has claimed four titles in the period of 2020-2021 with the help of various drivers. This motorcycle consists of an internal combustion engine of 450 cc capacity, liquid cooling mechanism, and single-cylinder structure, along with a six-speed transmission system with a Brembo hydraulic clutch. A noteworthy feature of this motorcycle is its massive 34.5 litre fuel tank that is specially designed for rally racing purposes.

The bike also has other features like twin radiators, an aluminum handlebar that tapers down and comes fitted with rally grips, and larger footpegs to offer increased control. Additionally, the bike has parts made of carbon fiber, such as brake guard and tank pad, in addition to an edition-numbered badging system on the chassis. In terms of aesthetics, the standard model will come in KTM’s classic orange paint job, while the Benavides model will have a full Red Bull KTM factory livery.
