China's latest Qianjiang group has now filed a new design which is a mid range off-road adventure vehicle with a V twin motor. Benelli already have some adventure models including TRK502 where the sales were gaining up much heat on its home turf. Following the success, now the manufacturer has managed to head for another product. While Qianjiang's Chinese brand QJMotor and Benelli shares their frame and engine, this new model could be released under both Benelli & QJMotor.
Currently, both of them shares 500 & 750cc parallel twin motors and also developing a new 4 cylinder engine. But, the rendered image here seems like a V twin arrangement and according to some sources, it is a 650cc unit expected to produce power somewhere about 70bhp and it'll compete against Suzuki's V-Storm 650 & Yamaha Tenere 700. In design wise, it do look like a capable adventure off-roader like any other models. Single headlamp assembly most probably a LED unit is cornered by 4 DRLs and it has also got LED turn winkers.
Wind screen is also raised and so the handlebar with the integrated knuckle guards. Instead of a 21" unit, it seems like the front end is equipped with 19" unit and 17" at the rear. But, it do get a wired spoke rims which adds some more essence of the off-roader. Single piece seat is extended with the help of neat luggage carrier and it is equipped with USD forks and monoshock at the front and rear respectively. Engine guard or bash plate looks purposeful which also covers all the major parts.

Probably, braking components will be borrowed from Brembo at both the ends. Exhaust is upswept and also we can able to notice a decent amount of ground clearance which a proper off-roader should possess. There's no confirmation by the manufacturer about this model but one thing's sure, a middle weight ADV is on progress and it'll compete against other products in the segment such as V-Strom 650, Versys 650 etc...
