    Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 Clearest Spy Shots Leaked Online

    New Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 SpiedThe Roadster style Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 will rival the likes of Speed 400, Honda CB300R, Yezdi Roadster, Harley X440 and Mavrick 440Ahead of launch, Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 (previously speculated to be called either Scram 450 or Roadster 450) test mules have been making rounds around company’s facilities in Tamil Nadu. The recent images of upcoming Guerilla 450 show the bike in utmost clarity and it seems to very close to production. Let’s take a look.Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 Clearest Spy Shots EmergeIndia’s most successful and iconic classic bike manufacturer, Royal Enfield, has stepped into a new era of engineering capabilities with the launch of Himalayan 450. This motorcycle debuted a capable new platform powered by Sherpa 450 engine. Second instalment of the RE 450 saga will emerge in the form of Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450.Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 Clearest Spy ShotsThere have been multiple instances of Guerrilla 450 sightings from the past couple of years now. Royal Enfield has been developing Guerrilla 450 alongside Himalayan 450. However, only the Himalayan 450 has broken covers and Guerrilla 450 has yet to.Recent spy shots from Drivespark are some of the clearest and show many new attributes that were not visible in previous spy shots. For starters, we can see a new fuel tank, which is different to the one we saw on Himalayan 450. So capacity is likely to be less than 17L seen on Himalayan 450.Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 Clearest Spy ShotsThere is quite a bit of camouflage seen on the bike to hide its identity. But the bike’s main frame and subframe are exposed and are almost identical to that of Himalayan 450, sans the added structures to mount luggage, panniers and the likes.Royal Enfield Scram 450 (Guerrilla 450) RenderChanges in componentry include RSU telescopic front forks with gaiters, a roadster-style handlebar, a single-piece seat, along with smaller wheels than Himalayan. These wheels, however, are alloy wheels and come fitted with road-biased tubeless tyres. Also, they’re fatter than Himalayan’s too.What to expect?Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 lacks a front windshield and the beak. Overall design fits the Roadster genre perfectly and is a handsome-looking machine. Round ORVMs, round LED headlights lend it that necessary neo-retro look. Other cycle parts like fancy swingarm and large disc brakes with dual channel ABS are seen on Guerrilla 450 as well.2024 Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 Logo TrademarkedPowering the bike, we have the same Sherpa 450 engine. This engine is the first from Royal Enfield to pack modern engineering like DOHC 4V head and liquid cooling. 6-speed gearbox, slipper clutch, ride-by-wire throttle and other attributes are first for any single-cylinder Royal Enfield too.Source More

    Top 5 Changes In Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 Over Himalayan 450

    Royal Enfield Scram 450 (Guerrilla 450) RenderThe neo-retro Roadster appeal of Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 puts it against rivals like Speed 400, X440, Mavrick 440, CB300R and othersSticking to its four launches per year strategy, Royal Enfield is cooking a bunch of new motorcycles for India to launch in 2024. The recently trademarked Guerrilla 450 is likely to launch soon and is among the most anticipated launches in Indian motorcycling industry. It is a stripped-down version of New Himalayan (a.k.a. Himalayan 450). Let’s take a look at the top 5 changes in Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 over Himalayan 450.1. Design & AestheticsWhile Himalayan 450 aims to look like an ADV, Guerrilla 450 is shooting for a Roadster look. Himalayan’s front beak, split seats and tall windshield are gone and so is the unappealing clamp that was holding the Tripper Dash. Guerrilla 450 will directly target the recently launched Harley-Davidson X440, its Hero counterpart Mavrick 440 and others like Yezdi Roadster, and Triumph Speed 400.2024 Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 Logo Trademarked2. FunctionalityHimalayan 450 was equipped with a lot of exposed frames, mounts and a sturdy rear luggage rack for saddle bags, side panniers, top box and jerry cans. All these are missing on Guerrilla 450. That said, there will be accessories sold separately to achieve these functionalities. With Guerrilla 450, the priority is ease of use on daily commutes, rather than going on an expedition.3. Cycle PartsTransitioning from an ADV to a Roadster, Guerrilla 450 has embraced RSU telescopic front forks, 17-inch alloy wheels with road-biased tubeless tyres and less suspension travel. Steering geometry has been revised for Roadster genre and the headlight is now conventionally mounted on the triple tree and moves with the handlebar.2024 Royal Enfield Guerrilla 4504. Ride & ErgonomicsRoyal Enfield Guerrilla 450 will pack a revised rider’s triangle that is geared towards sportiness for short power-packed commutes and the occasional highway use. Rider’s footpegs are slightly rear-set and the handlebars command a slight lean. The ride is likely to be slightly less robust and corner-carving a lot more natural when compared to Himalayan 450. Guerrilla 450 should weight a lot less in comparison to Himalayan 450 as well.5. PricingWe expect Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 to cost less than Himalayan 450. For context, Himalayan 450 costs between an eye-watering Rs. 2.85 lakh to 2.98 lakh (ex-sh) and in Karnataka (where I’m from), the on-road price goes very close to Rs. 4 lakh. If we take a look at rivals, Bajaj is offering a similar calibre motorcycle for Rs. 1.85 lakh (ex-sh). Factoring in the fancier gizmos Guerrilla 450 is bringing to the table, can we expect it to cost Rs. 2.3 lakh (ex-sh)? Only time will tell.Royal Enfield 450cc bike is likely to be Guerrilla 450Apart from the changes, Guerrilla 450 and Himalayan 450 will have a lot in common too. For starters, both get the same chassis, new Sherpa 450 engine, new Tripper Dash, fancy tail lights, full LED headlights and more. With the Guerrilla 450, Royal Enfield has an opportunity to work on all the issues that were reported with Himalayan 450 and we can expect a more polished product.Also read – Royal Enfield New Himalayan long-term review.  More

    New Bajaj Electric 3W Launch Planned To Take On Cheap e-Rickshaws

    Image for illustration onlyRajiv Bajaj has announced plans to launch an affordable electric 3W which will rival unbranded Rickshaws made from illegal import kitsBajaj Auto, a global leader in the manufacturing of 3-wheelers (3Ws), stands as a cornerstone in India’s automotive landscape, excelling in both the two-wheeler (2W) segment within the passenger vehicle (PV) space and the 3W segment within the commercial vehicle (CV) arena.Bajaj’s Affordable Electric Rickshaw ProjectRenowned for its pioneering strides in electric 3Ws, the company is now embarking on a mission to create a more accessible electric 3W platform, with the aim of steering Indian consumers away from unbranded import kits and towards safer, more reliable options.Image for illustration onlySpeaking with CNBC TV18, Rajiv Bajaj, the MD of Bajaj Auto, confirmed the company’s ongoing efforts to develop an affordable electric 3W vehicle. This vehicle, envisioned as a versatile platform, holds the promise of spawning multiple body styles in the future, catering to a diverse range of consumer needs.As a key player in the global 3W market, Bajaj feels a sense of responsibility to drive the segment forward in the right direction. Mr Bajaj emphasizes the substantial market potential of the electric rickshaw sector, estimated at approximately 50,000 to 60,000 units. However, he expresses concerns regarding the dominance of cheap, unbranded products comprising imported kits, which often fail to meet safety standards, posing significant risks on the road.Recognizing this market niche as a lucrative opportunity, Bajaj is committed to developing an affordable offering that matches the pricing of unbranded electric rickshaws while surpassing them in terms of quality and safety. The primary target demographic for this initiative, according to Bajaj, is North India, encompassing regions such as Delhi, Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, and others.While Bajaj may not currently have a foothold in this specific segment, Rajiv Bajaj hints at an impending unveiling. When questioned about a potential launch timeline, he suggests that the introduction of this budget-friendly electric 3W from Bajaj is imminent, promising a transformative impact on the Indian electric vehicle market.Bajaj’s Venture into Affordable Electric TransportationNotably, the company has made significant strides in offering a robust portfolio of Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) 3Ws, which have gained popularity both in the Indian market and in various export destinations.Bajaj has also made notable inroads into the realm of electric 3W mobility solutions, gaining considerable momentum in the process. Presently, the company offers the EV RE electric 3W rickshaw (also known as a tuk-tuk) and the Maxima XL Cargo, both powered by the E-TEC 9.0 powertrain, featuring an 8.9 kWh battery. For those seeking greater power and capacity, Bajaj also offers the Maxima XL Cargo with the E-TEC 12.0 powertrain, boasting an 11.8 kWh battery.In terms of pricing, the Bajaj EV RE E-TEC 9.0 starts from Rs. 3.65 lakh, while the Maxima XL Cargo E-TEC 9.0 begins at Rs. 4.04 lakh, and the Maxima XL Cargo E-TEC 12.0 starts from Rs. 4.5 lakh (all prices ex-showroom). These competitive prices underscore the pressing need for an affordable electric 3W rickshaw in the market.Source More

Ahead of launch, Guerrilla 450 logo has now leaked online.2024 Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 Logo LeaksThough based on new Himalayan 450, Guerrilla 450 won’t be getting as many premium features as the Himalayan 450. For example, Guerrilla 450 will be getting standard telescopic forks at front and not the USD forks seen with Himalayan 450. Similarly, the Tripper TFT display offered with the Himalayan 450 could be replaced with a semi-digital instrument console. It could be the same unit, as used with the Super Meteor 650.True to its roadster profile, Guerrilla 450 will be getting 17-inch alloy wheels at both ends. In comparison, the Himalayan is equipped with 21-inch and 18-inch wire spoke wheels at front and rear, respectively.2024 Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450As seen with test mules, Guerrilla 450 has a minimalistic profile. The retro bits include the circular headlamp and rear-view mirrors. The bike has a classic teardrop shaped fuel tank and a single piece saddle.

This feature is similar to that of the new Himalayan.2024 Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 – Ride comfortGuerrilla 450 has an upright, comfortable riding stance. It seems suitable for city commutes as well as longer journeys across highways. Although the bike won’t be getting USD forks, the telescopic forks and the rear monoshock unit should be able to provide optimal comfort to the rider. In its stock form, Guerrilla 450 will be primarily targeted at solo riders. The rear seat section seems narrow and may not be comfortable for the pillion over longer durations.2024 Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 – Performance, specsPowering Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 will be the 452cc, liquid cooled, single cylinder engine that delivers 40 PS and 40 Nm.

    Ola ADV And Roadster Motorcycles, Rickshaw, Cargo Vehicles Patented

    Ola Motorcycles & RickshawThere is no timeline mentioned for Ola 3W vehicles, but Ola electric motorcycles are supposed to break cover by 2024 endAfter dominating Indian electric scooter space, Ola Electric is poised to expand its presence in new type of electric vehicles. In that regard, we have been promised cars, motorcycles, rickshaws and 3W cargo vehicles from Ola Electric. Ola car might be further ahead in the future, but Ola motorcycles and 3W vehicles seem to be arriving first as hinted by design patents.Ola ADV And Roadster MotorcyclesIf you remember Ola motorcycle unveiling event, only the Roadster concept was functional and we predicted that it could be the one to launch first. That seems to be true and M1 Cyber Racer (production name of Ola Roadster) has been patented by Ola Electric in three different variants. All three variants bear design distinctions to establish a visual distinction.Ola M1 Cyber Racer Base VariantM1 Cyber Racer looks like it is being developed into three distinct variants. The base variant gets slightly uninspiring wheels, probably cast alloys in a monotone finish. This variant gets a hub motor at the back, a very basic box-section swingarm and twin shock absorbers. Then comes the top trim with fancier dual-tone alloy wheels, mono-shock rear suspension, front and rear disc brakes, a mid-mounted motor, fancy swingarm and sophisticated fairing.This top trim gets two variants – single-seat and twin-seat variants, with slight design differences. Single-seat variant gets rear footpegs for some reason too. All three M1 Cyber Racer variants get RSU telescopic front forks and a flat-tracker-like headlight assembly. If you want premium components, you have to step up to Ola M1 Adventure which is also patented.Ola Cyber Racer Top VariantOla Cyber Racer Top VariantM1 Adventure electric ADV patentedWith M1 Adventure, Ola is venturing into electric off-road motorcycle niche. It gets premium componentry like USD telescopic front forks, twin discs at the front and single disc at the rear, wire-spoke wheels, knuckle guards, edgy styling, fancy swingarm and more. Where design is concerned, it gets twin vertically stacked headlights and a large windscreen reminding us of upcoming KTM 390 Adventure.Ola M1 AdventureApart from these motorcycles, Ola showcased M1 Cruiser which looked the best among the four. Also, Diamond Head futuristic concept that looked way ahead into the future. There was another patent of right-side switchgear that is likely to go into all these motorcycles to control the 5-inch instrument cluster which Ola showed with all its motorcycles.Ola Motorcycle SwitchgearVenturing into 3W spaceOla Electric has patented two 3W electric vehicles as well. Both these vehicles are essentially different variations of the same base vehicle. This is the first time Ola is venturing into electric 3W CV space and is likely to implement aggressive pricing strategies to quickly garner a lot of interest and push volumes.Ola Electric Rickshaw CVOla Electric Cargo CVThe electric rickshaw version seems to have a shorter wheelbase, a fixed hard top and a weather-proofed body. The electric cargo version gets a flat bed which is shorter in height. Buyers can modify this load bed for a taller body with the help of third-party fabricators. Ola ADV and Roadster motorcycles are supposed to break covers by the end of 2024. It would be interesting to see when 3W vehicles will debut. More
