Benelli has rolled out the 2025 version of its popular mid-size adventure tourer—the TRK 502X—in India. With some fresh updates, a new colour option, and a noticeable price hike, the updated TRK 502X is aiming to be more than just a rugged looker. But do the upgrades justify the extra money? Let’s cut into what’s new and what remains unchanged.
Features
First up, the biggest talking point is the new five-inch TFT display. Replacing the older LCD console, the new screen brings the TRK 502X up to speed with modern tech. It offers smartphone connectivity, screen mirroring, offline GPS navigation, and even a track-back function, which is handy when you’re exploring unknown trails.
Another useful addition is the Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS). This helps you keep an eye on your tyre pressure in real time, improving safety, fuel efficiency, and overall performance.
So yes, when it comes to features, Benelli is finally catching up with what riders expect in 2025.
Hardware
The 2025 TRK 502X doesn’t just look smarter—it’s built to ride better too. For starters, it now gets a heated seat and heated grips, a much-appreciated upgrade for cold weather riders. These are not just luxury items—they can be game-changers on long winter rides.
More practical updates include tubeless spoke wheels. This is a big plus, especially for those who venture far from cities. Tubeless setups make puncture repairs quicker and less stressful. The swingarm has also been redesigned to improve handling and balance the bike’s weight more effectively.
Benelli didn’t stop there. The TRK 502X now comes with a slipper clutch, which helps reduce wheel hop during aggressive downshifting. It also gets new hand guards and an updated engine bash plate for extra protection on tough terrain.
Here’s a look at what’s new:
| Upgrade | Benefit |
|---|---|
| 5-inch TFT screen | Navigation, smartphone connectivity |
| TPMS | Real-time tyre pressure alerts |
| Heated seat & grips | Enhanced rider comfort in cold weather |
| Tubeless spoke wheels | Easier puncture repair |
| Slipper clutch | Smoother downshifts |
| Revised swingarm | Improved handling |
| New hand guards & plate | Better protection |
Performance
Despite all these updates, the engine remains untouched—and that’s not a bad thing. The TRK 502X continues to be powered by a reliable 500cc twin-cylinder, DOHC engine that delivers 46.9bhp and 46Nm of torque. It’s paired with a six-speed gearbox that’s tuned for touring comfort.
With a 20-litre fuel tank, this bike is designed to munch miles without making you hunt for fuel stops too often. Suspension duties are handled by USD forks at the front and a monoshock at the rear, while braking is covered by dual front discs and a single rear disc, with dual-channel ABS standard.
Pricing
Now, let’s talk money. The 2025 TRK 502X gets a Rs. 35,000 bump in price and now costs Rs. 6.70 lakh (ex-showroom) for the standard white and green colour options. There’s also a limited edition yellow paint scheme, and that version will set you back Rs. 6.85 lakh.
Sure, it’s more expensive, but considering the added features and improved components, the price hike feels reasonable.
Benelli has played it smart with the 2025 TRK 502X. It hasn’t messed with what already worked, but added just enough new features and hardware upgrades to make the bike feel modern and more functional. From tech-savvy riders to long-distance tourers, the updated TRK 502X brings real value to the table.
