Benelli is now offering zero per cent interest finance scheme on the purchase of the TNT300 street bike and the 302R sportsbike. The scheme is being offered at all Benelli dealerships across India and it will be valid till the end of April. Offered in association with HDFC bank, the zero per cent interest rate scheme will be applicable only on 12-month finance.
Notably, the interest rates for loan taken for longer durations are also pretty low. If the bike is financed for 24 months, the interest rate is 2.96 per cent while it goes to 4.20 per cent for 36 months, 4.60 per cent for 48 months and 4.99 per cent for 60 months. The motorcycle can be booked at a down payment of Rs 90,000 and around 80 per cent of the ex-showroom price of the bikes can be financed.
Benelli has restarted its operations in India recently after a short hiatus. Now, the company has five motorcycles in its portfolio; the TNT300, 302R, TNT600i and the newly introduced TRK502 and 502X. The TNT300 and 302R are the entry level offerings from Benelli in India. While the former is a street naked bike, the latter is a fully-faired sportsbike. Both motorcycles are powered by the same 300cc, twin-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine. However, the TNT300 churns out 37.73bhp and 26.5Nm while its faired sibling makes slightly more power at 38.2bhp.
The Benelli TNT300 competes against the KTM 390 Duke and the BMW G310R. Meanwhile, the 302R locks horns with the KTM RC390, Kawasaki Ninja 300 and the Yamaha YZF R3.
