Royal Enfield Himalayan 450 to get a price hike from January 1: Details

Royal Enfield launched the Himalayan 450 last month at the 2023 Motoverse, with the introductory prices starting from Rs 2.69 lakh, ex-showroom, for the base Kaza Brown. The prices go all the way up to Rs 2.79 lakh and Rs 2.84 lakh, ex-showroom, for the top–of-the-line Summit trim’s Hanle Black and Kamet White paint schemes, respectively.

Powering the Himalayan 450 is a 450cc liquid-cooled engine, generating 40 hp at 40 Nm of peak torque, paired with a six-speed gearbox. The new Himalayan boasts advanced features, including Ride-by-Wire, a 4-inch TFT screen with smartphone connectivity for navigation and media controls, ride modes (eco and performance), and switchable ABS.


The new Himalayan features a completely redesigned steel twin-spar frame. For suspension duties, it gets 43 mm USD forks and a preload-adjustable monoshock, both providing 200mm of travel. With a ground clearance of 230mm, the stock seat height is a user-friendly 825mm. Additionally, it offers the flexibility to be raised to 845mm or, with the optional low seat accessory, lowered to 805mm.

Customers booking online or through showrooms before December 31 can avail of these introductory prices. However, starting January 1, Royal Enfield plans to implement a substantial price increase.

Dealers note that if a customer books the bike before January 1 but opts for a colour change in the New Year, the new price will apply. On the other hand, if the colour change occurs before December 31, the customer can benefit from the introductory price.
