New Royal Enfield Rides Rolling In: What to Expect in 2025–26

Royal Enfield is revving up for one of its most ambitious product rollouts yet. Between 2025 and early 2026, the brand is launching a wide spectrum of bikes—from entry-level cruisers to rugged adventure machines, and even its first electric offerings. Whether you’re a classic purist, urban rider, or off-road adventurer, Royal Enfield has something geared for you.


🏍️ 1. Royal Enfield Classic 650 (aka Classic 650 Twin)

Scheduled for launch in January 2025, the Classic 650 brings the timeless styling of the Classic series with modern muscle. Under the tank lies a refined 648 cc parallel-twin engine producing around 47 bhp and 52 Nm torque, paired with a 6-speed gearbox. Expect elegant retro touches—dual exhausts, analogue instrumentation, LED lighting, and optional spoke or alloy wheels. Anticipated ex-showroom price is around ₹3.4–3.6 lakh.


🚦 2. Royal Enfield Scram 440

Launching in March 2025, the Scram 440 updates the Scram 411 with a new 443 cc single-cylinder engine delivering ~25.4 bhp and 34 Nm torque. Built for city streets and light trails, it features a tall stance, 19-inch front wheel, USD forks, rugged styling, and refreshed colours. Rear suspension and LED lighting up the appeal. Perfect for younger riders seeking fun and flexible commuting.


🔨 3. Royal Enfield Interceptor Bear 650

Already unveiled in late 2024, but deliveries expected into 2025. This scrambler-style Interceptor gets raised ride height, 19‑17“ spoke wheels, Showa USD forks, and long-travel suspension for mixed-terrain prowess. The parallel‑twin engine is retuned for higher torque (~57 Nm at 5,150 rpm) over the base model, with dual‑channel ABS, LED lighting, and full-color TFT screen with Google‑Maps navigation (Trip‑per style) and Type‑C charging port.


🏍️ 4. Royal Enfield Himalayan 750

Set for release around September–November 2025, the Himalayan 750 upgrades the adventure marketplace with a robust 750 cc twin-cylinder engine. BOast features like USD forks, monoshock rear suspension, dual-petal front discs, and touring ergonomic design. Aimed squarely at long-range riders who need rugged reliability in India’s varied terrain. Expect pricing in the ₹4 lakh range.


🏍️ 5. Royal Enfield Bullet 650 Twin

More than just a name revival, the Bullet 650 Twin—with modest 650 cc performance—is expected mid‑2025. It brings the no‑frills charm of the Bullet 350 into the twin‑cylinder segment: minimalist analogue dials, classic tiger‑style LED light, single seat option, and USB charging. Positioned as the most affordable 650cc Royal Enfield, ideal for those craving more power without complexity. Expected to begin around ₹2.8–3.0 lakh.


6. Royal Enfield Himalayan Electric & Flying Flea EV Series

Royal Enfield’s first electric bikes will arrive in early 2026, with the Flying Flea C6 launching in Q4 of FY 2026 (Jan–Mar 2026) and the scrambler S6 following shortly thereafter. These lightweight EVs are inspired by the vintage Flying Flea design, with retro lines, TFT instrumentation, fixed‑battery pack, and fast‑charging support. Though specs are still under wraps, the platform promises urban-friendly performance and iconic styling. Prices are expected in the ₹2–2.5 lakh range for early models, while a full Himalayan Electric may join the fold later, priced closer to ₹5–7 lakh.


7. Other Notable Launches & Facelifts

  • Hunter 350 facelift expected in mid‑2025 with LED lighting and tweaked suspension—(₹1.8 lakh range).
  • Classic 350 next‑gen, refreshed early 2025 with improved engine tuning, instrumentation and ride comfort upgrades.
  • Super Meteor 650 / Shotgun 650 factory‑custom cruiser products remain limited editions, but may enjoy wider release across 2025–26.
