Commenting on the announcement, Mr Vikas Jhabakh, MD, Benelli India said, “We are excited to launch our Ultimate Urban Cruiser in India today. The 502c is a classic Italian power cruiser combining distinct design, aggressive styling, laid-back ergonomics and engaging performance. With the launch of 502c, we are venturing into an all-new segment of high-performance power cruisers and are looking forward to add more customers to the Benelli family in the country.”

The Benelli 502c is bound to be a head-turner because of its distinctive styling and road presence. The cruiser’s design includes aggressive styling, visible steel trellis frame, ultra-comfortable riding ergonomics, free-floating single-piece seat, muscular tank, LED lighting, imposing front fascia, chunky front suspension and double-barrel stainless steel exhaust pipes.

The Benelli 502c will be offered in two colour options – Matte Cognac Red and Matte Black. The Ultimate Urban Cruiser is powered by a 500cc, four-stroke, twin-cylinder engine with EFI, DOHC and TLI. The engine churns out 47.5 PS of peak power at 8500 rpm and 45 Nm of peak torque at 6000 rpm. The 502c gets a 21-litre fuel tank and 170mm of ground clearance. It also gets a fully digital console that provides all the information that a rider needs.

The 502c also gets comfortable riding ergonomics, thanks to the low seating position, wide swept handlebars and forward-set footpegs. The adjustable rear mono-shock is flexible to suit the rider’s needs based on the weight requirements and riding conditions. The braking duties are handled by dual semi-floating 280mm discs up front and a 240mm disc at the rear with dual-channel ABS.
