Husqvarna, following in the footsteps of its sister brand KTM, appears poised to unleash a more aggressive iteration of its already potent Vitpilen 801. The brand recently unveiled the Vitpilen 801 Aero concept in Europe, hinting at an upcoming high-performance streetfighter.
The concept showcases a significant departure from the standard model, boasting a host of performance-oriented upgrades. Custom wheels, a revised paint scheme, and liberal use of carbon fiber components contribute to a substantial weight reduction. The exhaust system has been overhauled, promising a significant boost in performance.
Braking performance is also enhanced with the inclusion of top-tier Brembo GP4 calipers, known for their exceptional stopping power. The rear brake features a unique disc design often seen in racing motorcycles, minimizing drag and optimizing braking efficiency.
While specific engine details remain scarce, it’s highly probable that the Vitpilen 801 Aero will retain the 799cc parallel-twin engine shared with the standard model and the KTM Duke 790. This engine is renowned for its strong low- and mid-range power delivery.
Husqvarna is expected to unveil the production version of the Vitpilen 801 Aero sometime in 2025, with official sales likely to commence in early 2026. This aggressive new model promises to further elevate Husqvarna’s position in the premium streetfighter segment.
This version aims to be more concise, engaging, and informative while maintaining accuracy.
