Mid-Displacement Trail Catches Attention With Innovative Design, Complete Technological Package, and Adventure Proposal for Those Seeking Performance on Different Terrains. Model Expands Possibilities for the Segment in Brazil and Worldwide.
Benelli officially unveiled the all-new BKX 300 in the second half of 2025.
The model marks the traditional Italian-Chinese manufacturer’s entry into the mid-displacement trail segment of up to 300 cc, combining modern design, structural robustness, and a technological package aimed at both urban use and off-road trails.
292 cc Engine and Versatile Performance
The heart of the Benelli BKX 300 is a 292.4 cc single-cylinder engine, four-stroke, liquid-cooled, capable of delivering 29 hp of maximum power at 9,000 rpm and 24.5 Nm of torque at 7,000 rpm, according to official data published by the European portal MCNews.

With a 1.0 engine producing 75 hp and costing less than R$ 70,000, Fiat’s car returns to the podium as the cheapest in the country; a temporary promotion for the 2026 Like version reduces the price of the Fiat Mobi.

With a mild hybrid system of 48 V, 176 hp and a price of R$ 175,990 in the Sahara version, the new Jeep Renegade changes mostly on the inside, improves slightly in fuel consumption, and remains almost the same car.

With a 293.5 cm³ engine and a range of up to 400 km with a 14.1-liter tank, the Honda CB 300F Twister 2026 has up to 24.7 hp, an initial price of R$ 25,150, and already exceeds R$ 29,000 in the Fipe Table.

With a 1.3 engine, nearly 700 km of range, and Turbo 200, the Fiat model surpasses Polo, Tera HB20, and Onix, becoming the best-selling car in March; see the numbers for the Fiat Strada and others.
This configuration provides quick responses and sufficient power to tackle uphill climbs, dirt roads, or urban traffic, balancing performance and fuel economy.
TFT Digital Panel and High-Level Features
One of the highlights of the new model is the color TFT digital panel, which displays comprehensive information clearly and modernly, including speedometer, tachometer, gear indicator, fuel level, and trip and total odometer.
The panel is also ready for smartphone connectivity, facilitating navigation and receiving notifications via Bluetooth — a differentiator for the segment.
The Benelli BKX 300 also features full LED lighting, USB charging port for electronics, a 13-liter fuel tank, and an electric start system, reinforcing its suitability for long journeys and adventure.
Long Suspension and Bosch ABS as Standard
To ensure security and comfort on different terrains, the motorcycle brings an inverted telescopic front suspension of 41 mm, with a travel of 180 mm, and a mono-shock rear swingarm, also with 180 mm of travel — dimensions above the segment average.
The spoked wheels of 19 inches in front and 17 inches in the back, shod with mixed-use tires, allow tackling mud, sand, stones, or asphalt with stability.
The braking system of the BKX 300 is supplied by Bosch, with discs on both wheels and ABS as standard, enhancing braking control and safety on slippery surfaces.
Innovative Design and Ergonomics for Adventure
Visually, the Benelli BKX 300 draws attention for its aggressive lines and robust build, typical of adventure motorcycles.
The curb weight is 165 kg, balancing stability and ease of handling, suitable for both beginners and experienced motorcyclists.
The wide seat, high handlebars, and sculpted tank enhance ergonomics and motorcycle control, whether on long trips or for daily use.
The grab handles and integrated luggage rack enhance practicality for those who use the motorcycle daily or for trips with luggage.
Benelli BKX 300 as a Rival to Mid-Displacement Trails in Brazil
With a predicted arrival in European and Asian markets still in 2025, the Benelli BKX 300 emerges as a direct alternative to well-established models in Brazil, such as Honda Sahara 300, Yamaha Lander 250, and Royal Enfield Himalayan 410.
According to the portal BikeWale, the expectation is that the starting price abroad will be around € 4,200, making it one of the most accessible mid-displacement trails among global brands.
Benelli BKX 300 2025 May Launch in Brazil?
Although the Benelli BKX 300 2025 has been officially presented in Europe and Asia, Brazilian motorcyclists are wondering if the model will also be offered in Brazil, one of the largest mixed-use motorcycle markets in the world.
Benelli has had a national presence since 2017, assembling models of up to 800 cc in Manaus (AM) through the JTZ Group.
Currently, the brand sells naked, sport, and big trails, such as the TRK 502, which has become a reference among Brazilian travelers for offering a good cost-benefit ratio among the “mid-displacements.”
Industry sources consulted by specialized portals indicate that the JTZ Group is evaluating expanding its mid-displacement trail portfolio to compete directly with Honda Sahara 300 and Yamaha Lander 250, segments experiencing strong growth.
However, as of July 2025 there is no official announcement of the BKX 300’s arrival in Brazil.
The model is already the subject of speculation in motorcyclist forums, and independent importers indicate interest, but there are currently no records of homologation or pre-sale at Benelli/JTZ dealerships.
According to market analysis, the competitive price in Europe and Asia makes the BKX 300 an attractive option, even if it arrives via independent import, as Benelli models are typically nationalized for tax reduction after initial homologation.
If the JTZ Group decides to officially bring the model, the expectation is that the announcement will occur between the last quarter of 2025 and early 2026, following the brand’s recent trends in the country.
While there is no confirmation yet, the recommendation is that interested parties stay tuned to official announcements from Benelli Brazil and JTZ, as well as monitor homologation records with INMETRO and DETRAN.

Versatility and Technology for Off-Road and Urban Riders
Benelli’s bet is to capture an audience looking for a motorcycle to “do it all”: handle daily commutes, travel, and on weekends, venture into trails and dirt roads.
The bold design, onboard electronics, and reinforced cycling assembly position the BKX 300 among the most complete and competitive trails on the market, with an aggressive price and adventure DNA.
While the arrival in Brazil is not confirmed, the model is already sparking curiosity among two-wheel enthusiasts seeking versatility, technology, and robustness in a single motorcycle.
Quase expeli a comida da boca contendo a risada após ler “média cilindrada com respostas rapidas do motor”. Torque max de 1,4Kgf a quase 8.000 rotações deve ser de chorar, prefiro ficar na bicicleta elétrica na falta de outra coisa
Benelli e JTZ?? Acho que está um pouco errado. A benelli e a Qj motors pertecem a Qianjiang que hj é parceira da Shineray.
