Royal Enfield 650cc range hit hardest
Prices increase by up to Rs 29,486
The Royal Enfield 650cc twin-cylinder range – comprising the Interceptor, Continental GT, Classic 650, Shotgun 650, Bear 650, and Super Meteor – sees the most substantial increases, with some variants rising by up to Rs 29,486.
These larger-capacity models make up a significant part of Royal Enfield’s portfolio and have been crucial to the brand’s growth both in India and globally. However, with the GST-driven price revisions, they now become less accessible to more price-sensitive buyers.
The revised pricing comes into effect on September 22, so if you’re planning to purchase one of these motorcycles, now would be the best time to do so.
