The Italian motorcycle manufacturer has adjusted pricing for its popular 457cc sport bike lineup following recent GST revisions in India. Both the Aprilia RS 457 and its naked sibling, the Tuono 457, now carry price tags closer to their original launch figures after a temporary spike.
Aprilia RS 457: What You Need to Know
The fully-faired RS 457 has been repositioned at Rs 4.22 lakh (ex-showroom, Maharashtra). This pricing structure applies across the range, including the recently unveiled colorways – Coral Blue Snake and Arsenic Yellow – that debuted at India Bike Week 2025.
Special Edition GP Replica Variant
For enthusiasts seeking track-inspired aesthetics, the GP Replica edition commands a premium of Rs 15,000, bringing its price to Rs 4.37 lakh. This variant justifies the additional cost by including a bi-directional quickshifter as standard equipment – a feature that would otherwise require a Rs 25,000 investment as an optional add-on.
The GP Replica showcases a distinctive black-based livery adorned with official racing sponsor decals that mirror the company’s RS-GP MotoGP machine. Complementing the race-ready appearance are blacked-out frame and swingarm components.
Tuono 457: The Streetfighter Alternative
The naked Tuono 457 streetfighter presents an even more compelling value proposition at Rs 3.97 lakh. Originally launched at Rs 3.95 lakh in January 2025, the model saw a temporary price increase to Rs 4.24 lakh during the GST 2.0 implementation in December. The current pricing represents just a Rs 2,000 increment over the launch price despite the tax restructuring.
Performance Specifications
Both motorcycles share identical mechanical DNA, utilizing a 457cc liquid-cooled parallel-twin engine configuration. The powertrain delivers 47.6 horsepower and 43.5 Newton-meters of torque, providing strong performance credentials in the mid-displacement sport bike segment.
The platform-sharing approach between the faired RS and naked Tuono variants offers riders two distinct riding experiences while maintaining consistent performance capabilities.
Market Positioning
These pricing revisions make both Aprilia models competitive options for riders seeking European performance engineering at accessible price points in the Indian market. The brand has effectively neutralized the GST impact, maintaining the motorcycles’ value proposition for potential buyers.
