Didi Group, the sole importer and distributor of Aprilia brand in Malaysia, has officially unveiled the new Aprilia RS 457 GP Replica, a special edition inspired by the brand’s MotoGP racing machine, at the PETRONAS Grand Prix of Malaysia 2026. The preview was officiated by Aprilia Racing rider Marco Bezzecchi.
The bike is inspired by Aprilia’s RS-GP MotoGP race bike, featuring a striking black livery with a combination of gloss and matte finishes, complemented by racing-inspired graphics. Dark-finished aluminium components, including the frame, swingarm and steering plate, further enhance its sporty styling and premium appearance.
Beyond its unique design, the RS 457 GP Replica features upgrades focused on performance. This includes a quickshifter for smooth upshifts without using the clutch, improved front brake pads for better stopping power, and a single-seat rear cowl that enhances its racing style.
The motorcycle is powered by a 457cc parallel-twin engine, the same as the standard RS 457. Thanks to its lightweight build and easy handling, the RS 457 GP Replica offers an exciting ride for those who want both sporty performance and everyday usability.
The PETRONAS Grand Prix of Malaysia 2026 is a great event to showcase this bike, linking Aprilia’s street motorcycles with the thrill of international motorcycle racing.
The Aprilia RS 457 GP Replica is priced at RM35,900 and will be available through Aprilia authorised dealerships nationwide in Malaysia.
