Royal Enfield is all set to take its legendary adventure motorcycle to the next level! If you thought the Himalayan 450 was impressive, brace yourself—the Royal Enfield Himalayan 750 is coming, and it’s bringing serious muscle. Even more exciting?
The Himalayan will also be available in an electric avatar, likely named the Royal Enfield HIM-E. This long-awaited evolution of the Himalayan lineup is making waves, especially after a leaked teaser drop on Royal Enfield’s official Instagram.

Royal Enfield Himalayan 750: Bigger, Bolder, Better
750cc Parallel-Twin Engine
The Himalayan 750 is expected to feature a 750cc, air/oil-cooled, parallel-twin engine, churning out over 50bhp and 60Nm of torque. Mated to a six-speed gearbox, this engine promises not only more power but also smoother highway cruising and better touring capabilities.
Tested in Ladakh’s Toughest Terrains
Spotted undergoing high-altitude testing in Ladakh, the Himalayan 750 is clearly being put through its paces. What makes the test sightings more exciting is that senior Royal Enfield management were seen riding the prototype, indicating that this is more than just another model—it’s a strategic leap forward.
Rugged Yet Refined Design
- A larger front fairing houses a circular LED headlamp and a tall windscreen, clearly aimed at long-distance riders.
- A substantial fuel tank for extended range and minimalist tail design for functional use.
- High-mounted exhaust for river crossings and off-road escapades.
- New frame and subframe supported by USD forks and a monoshock, both likely to be adjustable.
- Tubeless wire-spoke wheels: 19-inch front and 17-inch rear, perfect for mixed-terrain use.
Next-Gen Features Expected
You can expect modern adventure gear including:
- TFT Display with Bluetooth connectivity & turn-by-turn navigation
- Cruise Control
- Multiple ride modes and perhaps even traction control.
Royal Enfield Himalayan EV (HIM-E): The Silent Storm
While all eyes are on the 750, Royal Enfield has another ace up its sleeve the Himalayan Electric, internally known as the HIM-E.
Based on the Himalayan 450 Platform
The EV version will likely share its design DNA with the 450cc ICE Himalayan, but the switch to an electric powertrain means we can expect a sleeker, more futuristic design, and possibly a new digital interface.
Expected Features & Range
- Likely to be more feature-rich than the ICE versions
- Potential for fast charging, regenerative braking, and advanced ride analytics
- Premium pricing is expected, but it may come with government EV subsidies
Who’s It For?
The HIM-E will be perfect for:
- Urban adventurers looking for a green alternative
- Budget-conscious riders who want the adventure-bike look without fuel expenses
- Riders seeking low-maintenance, high-efficiency touring bikes
Launch Timeline & Market Impact
Both the Royal Enfield Himalayan 750 and HIM-E are expected to debut later this year (2025). With this dual offering, Royal Enfield is clearly aiming to dominate both the traditional adventure segment and the growing electric motorcycle market.
Final Thoughts: Why You Should Be Excited
Whether you’re planning a Leh-Ladakh ride or commuting through the city jungle, the Himalayan 750 and HIM-E are about to rewrite what an Indian ADV bike can be. With high-altitude testing, premium design tweaks, and modern tech, Royal Enfield is finally blending tradition with next-gen performance.
