Making its presence felt through its debut at Milan motorcycle show, EICMA 2017, Benelli announces the global launch of its new TNT 200. The test market is likely to be Europe. Apart from the TNT 200 the company also showcased the 302S. With this the armory is complete, the TNT 200 targeting the Duke 200 and the 302 S targeting the higher end KTM Duke 390.

The Benelli TNT 200 features a 199.4 cc engine generating a massive torque of 18 NM at 7000 rpm. The FI single cylinder engine generates at 9500 rpm, 21.8 PS of power unleashed by a 6-speed gearbox.
