It is reported that Royal Enfield is currently developing multiple electric vehicle prototypes and testing them both abroad and in India. The brand has recently accelerated its procedure and has been moving forward quickly in the industry. Royal Enfield just made a fresh job announcement for new employees to work at its technology centres in India and the UK.
Additionally, Royal Enfield is trialling a few distinct prototypes of electric vehicle models around the globe. Although the company is taking its time with any R&D phases, it anticipates releasing its first electric motorcycle by 2025.
According to the brand, the teams are not buying off-the-shelf generic electric kits but instead are creating a completely new product that fits in with other RE cars and will not only have amazing practicality and performance but also a comparable personality and level of dependability.
Additionally, Royal Enfield anticipates that one of its key international markets for electric products would be India. When compared to ICE vehicles, electric vehicles are currently thought to be much less expensive to operate. Sales of ICE vehicles in the nation are predicted to shortly suffer more from rising fuel prices and strict emissions regulations.
Several 650cc bikes that Royal Enfield is developing will shortly make their debut in the nation. These include the Super Meteor 650 and the forthcoming Royal Enfield Shotgun 650. In addition, the brand-new Scrambler 650 was seen for the first time in the nation during testing. According to rumours, the Scrambler 650 will make its debut sometime in 2019.
