Taking advantage of the incomparable frame offered by the Chinese Salon of the Cimamotor automotive, Kove has presented, among others, its new generation of the 450 Rally model. A mount that is renewed for 2026 by increasing its benefits thanks, mainly to be equipped with the same block that drives the most racing variant of this range, the 450 ex. All this maintaining the ease of piloting and good doing offers this offroad “with enduro makers.”
Kove 450 Rally 2026: “More Chicha” to enjoy offroad
After passing through EICMA 2024, Kove announced the imminent launch of his new Rally 450 former destined exclusively to the competition, announcing greater power than the standard version of the model. Among its main features, a new invoice engine stood out, 20% lighter than the one used by the 450 rally, increasing the final power by more than 15% compared to it.
Now, taking advantage of its presence in Cimamotor 2025, Kove has announced before the audience the second generation of the 450 rally. As they point out from international media, the latter would use from now on the same motor base as its sister the ex. Therefore, the 4 -stroke, 4 -stroke, with 4 valves in butts and oil cooled and water would have 449.9 cc and internal levels of 96 mm in diameter by 62.15 mm of race.
Until now, the 450 Rally in its standard version was driven by a 449 CC block with main measures of 94.5 mm × 64 mm. This variation will allow to increase the maximum power from the current 42 hp to a figure close to the 60 hp declared by the ex. The brand is likely to opt for halfway between both powers, of the order of 55 hp.
The maximum torque figure is also expected to increase, until now approved by 35 Nm to 6,500 laps. However, both the cycle and the equipment currently offered by the 450 rally, does not seem to be affected by this technical change, maintaining in its standard configuration already seen elements such as:
- Double channel SAIFU ABS disconnectable with 3 modes
- High or low seat option (910 mm-960 mm)
- Headlights and intermittent (full LED)
- TFT instrument screen
- USB TAKE TYPE A
- Non -slip piece
- OFFROAD STRIBERAS
- Dakar style front screen, etc.
It is not clear (yet) if the Kove 450 second -generation rally will be seen by our continent, since these changes in mechanical and electronic matters should be approved according to the current Euro5+, something that the brand itself has not yet confirmed.
Said all this, we will leave doubts, most likely, with the celebration of EICMA 2025, where the Chinese brand will officially present all the news with which it will supply the European market next season.
