Built around Italika's custom - cruiser motorcycle platform, the 2020 Italika TC250 features a 250 cc (15.3 cu in) single cylinder, four-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 17.8 HP (13 kW) at 8,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 16.1 Nm (11.8 lb-ft) at 6,500 rpm. With a specific output of 71.2 HP per liter and a 2,000 rpm working window between peak torque (6,500 rpm) and peak power (8,500 rpm), the engine character is indicating a tractable, stress-free state of tune focused on everyday usability and broad torque delivery.
On the scales, the TC250 measures 141 kg (311 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.13 HP/kg (7.92 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 720 mm (28.3 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops. The 15-liter (4 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints, while factory top speed is listed at 118 km/h (73 mph).
