Royal Enfield’s Electric Leap: Himalayan-E Specifications and Strategy

The production-ready Royal Enfield Himalayan-E has been unveiled, with prior testing undertaken in mountainous regions. The electric motorcycle’s standout feature is its newly designed battery box, integrated into the chassis. The bike is expected to include Flax fibre composite bodywork and a bespoke swingarm from Harris Performance. Royal Enfield has plans for various EV models across different platforms. This strategy is supported by an investment in Stark Future Sl, a Spanish off-road firm. The Himalayan-E was originally developed as an engineering project, and the company has developed a new wind tunnel to maximize the electric powertrain’s range.
