Royal Enfield’s first electric motorcycle spotted: What we know so far

Royal Enfield is gearing up to debut its first-ever electric motorcycle at the upcoming EICMA on November 4, 2024. Although the official unveil is just weeks away, a test mule of the bike has already been spotted on the streets of Barcelonarevealing a host of details, especially related to design and hardware.

The upcoming Royal Enfield electric motorcycle features touches of the brand’s signature retro design language.It features a round LED headlight with the company’s logo in the centre. The bike’s design looks similar to earlier patent images, featuring a slim, low-slung silhouette. The test mule also sports girder forks, alloy wheels, and exposed rear fenders, giving it a unique yet familiar look. It appears to share several components with its petrol-powered siblings, such as the round instrument console, adjustable brake lever, and chrome-finished round mirrors, reminiscent of the Classic 350. It also gets round turn indicators mounted in line with the handlebar.
The road-biased tryes are notably slim, hinting at the motorcycle’s focus on commuting rather than high performance. Additionally, footpegs for a pillion suggest the option for an additional seat, though the test mule in the image doesn’t sport one.

While specifics about the battery, motor, and range are yet to be revealed, we can expect the motorcycle to offer a real-world range of around 120 km on a single charge with a fixed battery. Further details are likely to emerge as the official launch approaches.
