Royal Enfield is gearing up to define 2024 with various models that embrace vintage design and modern advancements. From classic, torque-heavy road bikes to the company’s first foray into electric motorcycles, here’s what the Chennai-based bikemaker has been cooking. 

5 Upcoming Royal Enfield Motorcycles 

1. Royal Enfield Classic 650

The long-anticipated Classic 650, a beefed-up sibling to the Classic 350, is Enfield’s answer to fans who crave nostalgia mixed with power. The 650cc parallel-twin engine, borrowed from the Interceptor, promises a torque-packed experience tailored to Enfield’s loyalist market. With spy images hinting at options in classic shades and dual-tone finishes, this model stays close to the Classic 350’s retro style while packing more muscle under the hood. Look for its official launch at the Motoverse in Goa.

2. Royal Enfield Interceptor Bear 650

A scrambler twist on the popular Interceptor 650, the Interceptor Bear 650 steps up the scrambler style, adding a USD fork, a lighter single-sided exhaust, and dual-purpose tyres perfect for both urban roads and rougher terrains. The Bear 650 will be the first of Enfield’s 650cc bikes to feature an all-digital instrument console, likely borrowed from the Himalayan 450. Expect better suspension and enhanced performance without compromising its classic Enfield look. This one’s making its international debut at the EICMA show, ready to take on fans of rugged, no-frills motorcycles.

3. Royal Enfield Classic Goan 350

Inspired by the laid-back vibe of Goa, the Classic Goan 350 brings a new twist to the J-platform family. Designed as a single-seater bobber, it offers distinctive features like a tall handlebar, white-wall tyres, and a detachable pillion seat to give riders flexibility. Its 350cc engine is the same reliable powerplant as seen in the Classic 350, delivering 20.2 bhp and 27 Nm of torque. Fans of the Meteor 350 will recognize the smoother, more laid-back tuning. This model will also make its debut at Motoverse, blending relaxed aesthetics with Royal Enfield’s signature engine note.

4. Royal Enfield Electric Bike

Royal Enfield’s biggest leap yet is their first electric bike, rumoured to debut at EICMA 2024. Paying homage to the Flying Flea—a WWII model beloved by British soldiers—this new bike will feature an unmistakably retro design, with a girder fork, single-seat, and alloy wheels. Its rumoured belt drive and sizable battery pack suggest a range that could reach up to 250 kilometres on a single charge, appealing to both modern city riders and long-distance travellers looking for a sustainable, classic look. This is set to mark Enfield’s entry into the electric arena, with a design that stays rooted in its storied history.

5. 2025 Royal Enfield Hunter 350

The 2025 update of the Hunter 350 is gearing up for a refresh, and early test sightings hint at some thoughtful upgrades. A new LED headlight—likely the same as seen on the Interceptor 650—replaces the previous halogen unit for better night visibility. The rear suspension has been upgraded with twin shock absorbers, which should improve the Hunter’s handling on rougher roads. Powered by a 349cc, single-cylinder engine, this new Hunter will retain the spirited performance that fans love, while sporting potential new colour options. The revamped Hunter 350 is expected to launch in India by mid-2025.
