The eagerly awaited Royal Enfield Interceptor 750 has been spied testing in India, offering a glimpse into the upcoming model’s design and potential features. While retaining the classic retro aesthetics of its predecessor, the Interceptor 750 showcases subtle refinements, including sleeker exhaust end-cans.
At the heart of the Interceptor 750 will lie a newly developed 750cc engine, likely a bored-out version of the existing 648cc, air- and oil-cooled, parallel-twin engine found in the current Interceptor 650. This approach echoes the recent launch of the Scram 440, which utilizes a larger displacement engine based on the Scram 411’s powerplant.
The increased engine capacity is expected to translate into a noticeable performance boost, with anticipated power figures around 55 horsepower and 60 Nm of torque. This enhanced performance will undoubtedly enhance the Interceptor 750’s appeal, particularly for riders seeking a more spirited riding experience.
To accommodate the increased power, the Interceptor 750 will feature upgraded underpinnings, including a crucial addition – a twin-disc braking setup at the front. This marks a significant step forward for Royal Enfield, following the implementation of a similar configuration on the upcoming Himalayan 650.
In terms of technology, the Interceptor 750 is set to receive a modern 5-inch TFT instrument cluster, mirroring the units found on the Himalayan 450 and Bear 650. This advanced display will offer smartphone connectivity and a range of features, including full-fledged navigation via Google Maps.
The Interceptor 750 promises to build upon the strengths of its predecessor, offering a compelling blend of classic styling, enhanced performance, and modern technology. Royal Enfield enthusiasts and retro-bike aficionados alike can anticipate the launch of this exciting new model, expected towards the end of 2025 or early 2026. The anticipated ex-showroom price is around ₹4.20 lakh, positioning it to compete with other retro-style roadsters such as the Kawasaki Z650RS.
