Upcoming Royal Enfield Bikes: Himalayan 440, Continental GT 750 and More

Upcoming Royal Enfield Bikes: Himalayan 440, GT 750 and More

Royal Enfield is preparing to launch three new motorcycles over the coming months, filling a gap left by the discontinued Himalayan 411 while also introducing its next-generation 750cc platform to two more models. For Indian buyers who found the Himalayan 450 too expensive after the 411 was dropped, this is significant because the upcoming Himalayan 440 is expected to bridge that price gap directly. Here’s what’s confirmed and expected across the Himalayan 440, Himalayan 750, and Continental GT 750.

Royal Enfield Himalayan 440: Filling The Affordable ADV Gap

– The Himalayan 440 is expected to launch in September 2026. It is built on the same platform as the Scram 440 and powered by the same 443cc air/oil-cooled single-cylinder engine. This unit produces 25.4 bhp and 34 Nm in that bike.

– It’s expected to be priced around Rs 2.50 lakh (ex-showroom), slotting between the Scram 440 and the pricier Himalayan 450. This is to specifically target buyers left without an affordable ADV option after the Himalayan 411 was discontinued.

– The engine pairs with a 6-speed gearbox and a slip-and-assist clutch as standard though Royal Enfield hasn’t confirmed final specifications yet.

Himalayan 750 And Continental GT 750: The New 750 Platform

– The Himalayan 750 will be Royal Enfield’s first motorcycle on its new 750cc platform, an evolved version of the existing 650 twin architecture expected to offer more power and torque and has already been spotted testing in what looks like production-ready form in the UK.

– It’s expected to lean more toward road-biased touring with light off-road capability, with test mules showing 19-inch front and 17-inch rear wheels along with a ride-by-wire throttle for features like riding modes and cruise control.

– The Continental GT 750, a cafe racer built on the same platform, has already previewed a race-spec GT-R 750 variant at the 2026 Royal Enfield GT Cup and is expected to arrive in multiple variants alongside a new Interceptor 750, with both likely launching by late 2026 or early 2027.

None of these three motorcycles have confirmed India pricing beyond the Himalayan 440’s expected bracket and Royal Enfield hasn’t announced official launch dates for the Himalayan 750 or Continental GT 750, both of which are expected to debut internationally at EICMA 2026 before any India-specific timeline is confirmed.
