New 2024 Aprilia Tuareg 660 Models Sport Fresh Color Options

Aprilia is giving adventure enthusiasts something to talk about with the introduction of fresh colors for its 2024 Tuareg 660 model. The Italian motorcycle maker has decided to keep the mechanics of the popular bike largely unchanged but is injecting new life through three new color variants: Atreides Black, Canyon Sand, and Dakar Podium.

A nod to off-road heritage

These freshly minted colors are more than just aesthetic choices. They serve to underline the Tuareg 660's affinity for rugged landscapes. Atreides Black and Canyon Sand draw their inspiration from the harsh terrains that are the bike's playground. Dakar Podium, meanwhile, serves as a tribute to Aprilia's 2010 achievement in the infamous Dakar Rally with its RXV 4.5 model.

Red frame: an aggressive touch

All three versions feature a red frame, which adds a touch of racing flair to the adventure bike. The color contrast is particularly striking in the Atreides Black variant, where the red frame stands out against the black bodywork.

Performance that speaks for itself

The Tuareg 660 is no slouch when it comes to performance. Its 659cc, liquid-cooled, fuel-injected engine, complete with a 270-degree crankshaft, makes it a formidable presence on all kinds of terrains. The bike's engine boasts 80 horsepower and 51.6 pound-feet of torque, making it one of the most potent adventure motorcycles available today.

“Back to Africa” and future challenges

Aprilia is not resting on its laurels. The company has initiated a project named "Back to Africa," as the Tuareg 660 prepares to tackle the African desert in its upcoming challenges. This follows its impressive third-place finish in the Transanatolia Rally.

Enhanced accessories for 2024

To further improve its offerings, Aprilia is also widening the range of genuine accessories available for the Tuareg 660. The 2024 collection will include a specialized air filter designed to cope with dusty conditions, ensuring that the engine's performance and longevity are not compromised.

Final thoughts

With these new color variants and a solid track record, the Aprilia Tuareg 660 continues to be a compelling choice for adventure and off-road enthusiasts. While the core mechanics remain the same, the fresh shades and red frame add a new layer of appeal to this already impressive motorcycle.
