The Aprilia Tuono 457 motorcycle gets all-LED lighting, traction control, switchable ABS, a colour TFT display with Bluetooth connectivity and 3 ride modes: Eco, Sport and Rain. It rides on 17-inch wheels with a suspension setup that consists of preload-adjustable USD forks and a monoshock. Braking is handled by disc brakes on both wheels with dual-channel ABS.

Unlike the Tuono 660 and Tuono V4, the Tuono 457 features a design with minimal body panels. It has a centrally placed LED headlight with LED DRLs. The model is available in two colour options: Piranha Red and Puma Grey.

Diego Graffi, Chairman and MD, Piaggio Vehicles Pvt Ltd, said, “I am thrilled to introduce to India the Aprilia Tuono 457, a year after we introduced the segment disruptor Aprilia RS457. There were a lot of enquiries for naked sibling to the RS and Tuono 457 is the latest heir to a tradition of excellence in high-handlebar sports bikes offering a superb, adrenaline-filled ride. The Tuono 457 has a number of differences that render it all the more exclusive: it is the only bike in the range that does not have a fairing integrated into the frame. In its place - for the first time on a Tuono - is a pared-back light cluster, worthy of a true naked bike. It’s the most non-conformist and rebellious Tuono that has ever been, and whilst it retains the core features of all Tuono bikes, the new model boasts an all-new look, designed to satisfy the needs and desires of the youngest generation at which it is aimed.”
