Royal Enfield’s new 250cc range: 2026 or 2027 as official launch date

While the brand has historically had 250 cc mounts, such as the Continental GT of 1967 or the Bullet of 1932, the new Royal Enfield 250 cc range could become a wide amalgamation of models and variants developed on what, internally, is known as platform V.

This idea is not new, as there has been talk since 2019 about the possible arrival of a new 250 cc range from Royal Enfield. At that time, the option of a new platform designed for the female audience, but also for young people, was considered. It was even assumed that this new range of models would include a Royal Enfield Hunter within it. The Hunter finally arrived, but in a 350 cc version.

This is why, in the coming years, not only Royal Enfield will try to develop its own hybrid range. Other brands equipped with the necessary technology and resources will do the same.

In any case, the new 250 cc range from Royal Enfield will stand out for its simplicity and versatility, essential requirements to become the entry level of the Indo-British firm.
