The Royal Enfield is rumored to be working on an all-electric version of the Himalayan ADV and now the images and videos of the near-production prototype being tested in the Himalayas have surfaced.
Production-Ready Royal Enfield Himalayan Electric Adventure Bike Testing Commenced
These new sets of pictures are displaying the electric motorcycle in various parts of Shimla reportedly.
This time, it’s different as the bikes look more production-ready and the company seems to be testing it extensively on snow.
The Instagram handle Xplorearth shared a new set of images which is based in Shimla.
It appears that they have organized 4×4 adventures and guided motorcycle tours in the Himalayas.
Considering the cause, the Royal Enfield team has collaborated with Xplorearth and they will be doing the Himalayan Electric’s testing and explorations there.
The interesting part is that the motorcycles are seen without any camouflage in the pictures.
What To Expect In Future?
We can also assume that the Royal Enfield could be filming content- TV commercials, B-rolls, development film etc- with the bikes, in the mountains.
These Himalayan EVs are seen parked at a hotel, most likely ready for the day’s expedition.
It has displayed the details of its design and even the seat upholstery.
Besides this, one can witness the Ohlins-sourced fully-adjustable USD telescopic front forks can be seen in the pictures and they are finished in a golden colour.
The bike will also come with Nissin callipers. We can also see wire-spoke wheels and knobby tyres on these.
Its seats are finished in Black, while the ‘Royal Enfield’ lettering at the rear is in Yellow.
In a closer look, you can witness that this comes with Black contrast stitching.
These images also indicate that the new motorcycle would come with a full-LED lighting setup.
A digital screen can also be witnessed which does duty as the rider displays on the prototype.
But now it remains to be seen if the same unit will be carried to the production-spec as well.
The electric Himalayan will be having Aluminium main frame and sub frame.
Its battery pack is likely to be a 14 kWh unit with an onboard charger and so far this is the largest battery pack of any two wheeler on sale here!
This will also come with a protective case made of Aluminium and this battery pack will be mounted as a structural member.
