Upcoming Royal Enfield Bikes 2022-2023-2024
1. New-Gen Royal Enfield Bullet 350
Royal Enfield is now testing the latest Bullet 350 on Indian roads. This new upcoming bike is expected to be built on the company’s latest J-Series platform, which is said to offer strong power output and streamlined performance. The upcoming RE Bullet 350 will be powered by the same 349cc single-cylinder air-cooled engine as the Meteor 350, making 20.2 horsepower and 27 Nm of torque. It will get a 5-speed gearbox.
2. Royal Enfield Hunter 350
In the coming months, the RE will introduce the Hunter 350 Roadster. The motorbike is now under production and will be based on the same J platform as the new Classic 350 and Meteor 350. Single seats, circular headlamps, alloy wheels, disc brakes, and rear grab handles are all standard on the bike. It will use the same up to 349cc single-cylinder air-cooled OHC engine that powers the Classic 350 and Meteor 350 and produces 20.2 horsepower and 27 Nm of torque. Power will be sent to the rear wheel using a 6-speed gearbox. The all-new Royal Enfield Hunter 350 will be a new role model for top 350cc bikes available in India that represent the tradition and craftsmanship of the past as it is reborn. The expected launch date of the bike is 4 Aug to 8 Aug.
3. Royal Enfield Himalayan 450
The latest Himalayan 450 has just been spotted testing on Indian roads. The 450cc single-cylinder liquid-cooled engine that will power the future Himalayan 450 is expected to produce 40 horsepower and 45 Nm of torque. There will be a 6-speed gearbox for transmission functions. According to media sources, the motorcycle will be offered in three riding modes, which include rain, road, and off-road. The new-generation Himalayan, which will go on sale in 2023, will include switchable ABS, 21-inch front and 17-inch rear wheels, and ride-by-wire technology. A Royal Enfield Himalayan 450 is all set to feature in the list of best 500cc bikes in India. The estimated launch date of the Royal Enfield Himalayan 450 is June 2023.
4. Royal Enfield Classic 650
By 2023, the RE is planning to launch the new Classic 650 motorbike in the Indian market. Spotted multiple times during testing in India, the motorbike will include a teardrop-shaped gasoline tank apart from a circular headlight. Additionally, it will get split seats with removable pillion parts, a circular instrument panel, dual exhaust pipes, and more. The engine of the upcoming RE Classic 650 will most likely be a 649cc twin-cylinder unit that produces 47hp of power and 52Nm of torque. The Royal Enfield Continental GT 650 and Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 are also excellent models of 650cc bikes in India. The Royal Enfield Classic 650 will likely be launched sometime in March 2023.
5. Royal Enfield Shotgun 650 Roadster
The Shotgun 650 is the most awaited upcoming Royal Enfield bike in India. The Shotgun 650 was previously showcased as the SG650 in concept form at the 2021 EICMA. Abroad, the Bobber has already been seen testing. The Shotgun 650 will get a semi-digital instrument panel with tripper navigation, round headlights, wide rear mudguards, and rear-view mirrors. The 648cc air-cooled parallel-twin engine powering the Continental GT 650 and Interceptor 650 is expected to be shared by the Royal Enfield Shotgun 650 as well. The engine will make 52Nm of torque and 47 horsepower and will be mated to a six-speed gearbox.
6. Royal Enfield Super Meteor 650
Royal Enfield is now testing a cruiser bike that it will call the “Super Meteor.” The Super Meteor will receive several upgrades, including upside-down front forks, rear dual shock absorbers, disc brakes with multi-channel ABS, and more. It is likely to share the engine with the RE Interceptor 650. The Super Meteor 650 will use some design cues from the 2019 KX concept.
7. Royal Enfield KX Bobber
Additionally, the KX Bobber, which was earlier showcased as a concept, is expected to be released by Royal Enfield. With the 838cc V-twin engine, the KX Bobber will have the largest engine Royal Enfield has ever sold in India. As the flagship model, the KX Bobber will top the Royal Enfield lineup. Two other retro-modern motorcycle makers, Harley Davidson, and Triumph bikes, will be pitted against the Bobber.
8. Royal Enfield Scram 450
The Royal Enfield Scrum 450 was first spotted in testing. It will be a scrambler-style variant of the Himalayan 450 which is more affordable and will cost around Rs above 2 lakh. The bike does not get tank bracing, single-piece contoured seat, or headlamps on the fork clamps. The Himalayan 450’s single-cylinder liquid-cooled engine will also power this motorbike. The motor in the ADV is estimated to produce around 40PS, thus the Scrum 450 will probably have similar tuning.
The less expensive, small-engine Husqvarna Svartpilen 250 bike will be the most direct challenger to the upcoming Royal Enfield Scram 450.
9. Royal Enfield Constellation
RE has recently applied to trademark the term “Royal Enfield Constellation” in India.
The most likely scenario is that the next RE will be an older roadster like the Constellation Bullet 650. The upcoming Royal Enfield Classic 650 will go well with this. A modernized version of the Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 is another option with alloy wheels, sportier ergonomics, and updated suspension. For Royal Enfield fans, the future looks promising on both counts.
