Moto Guzzi The Trip is an Indian-made retro roadster motorcycle that shares its engine platform with the Aprilia Tuono 457. It is the smallest motorcycle in the brand’s lineup. Both Aprilia and Moto Guzzi have the same parent company, Piaggio.
What engine does the Moto Guzzi The Trip use?
The Trip is powered by a 457cc liquid-cooled parallel-twin engine producing 47.6hp at 9,400rpm and 43.5Nm at 6,500rpm, paired to a 6-speed gearbox. This engine is shared with the Aprilia 457 twins, which is a departure from its larger Moto Guzzi siblings, which use a V-twin engine with the cylinder heads poking out both sides.
What are the features and electronics on offer?
It features a 3.6-inch TFT display with smartphone connectivity, three ride modes: Road, Rain and Sport, all-LED lighting, traction control and dual-channel ABS.
When will the Moto Guzzi The Trip be launched in India?
Globally, the motorcycle is expected to hit the official dealerships by early 2027. The brand has not made any official announcement whether The Trip will be launched in India. However, since it is made in Piaggio’s Baramati plant, and it shares its engine and electronics with the Aprilia Tuono 457, we expect it to have a lower price should it launch here.
What are the kerb weight and fuel-tank capacity?
The Trip weighs 180kg and has a fuel-tank capacity of 15 litres. It also features a welcoming 790mm saddle height.
What are the available colour options?
It is offered in three colourways: Green Grove, Red Beat and Black Metropolis. There is also a special edition on offer called The Opening.
