Bike Launches Upcoming In July 2021: New Royal Enfield Classic 350, TVS Apache RR 310 And More

This month is set to be super exciting for both budget and premium motorcycling enthusiasts! Here’s what to expect

With restrictions being eased nationwide, this month looks pretty bright for two-wheeler enthusiasts, as several manufacturers have lined up new bike and scooter launches catering to a diverse audience of different budgets. Take a look at what we can expect in the weeks ahead:

2021 Royal Enfield Classic 350

The all-new 2021 Royal Enfield Classic 350, born from the J-platform, was supposed to be launched much earlier but got delayed due to the second wave of the coronavirus pandemic. However, now with states resuming normal activities, expect the Chennai-based bikemaker to launch the motorcycle soon. This classic motorcycle will share its powertrain and underpinnings with the capable Royal Enfield Meteor 350, wrapped in a nostalgic retro package. Here’s everything you need to know about this motorcycle.

2021 TVS Apache RR 310

Like the new Royal Enfield Classic 350, the arrival of the 2021 TVS Apache RR 310 was delayed due to the pandemic. The 2021 iteration will likely be launched this month and is expected to be a more rounded offering than before. It could get adjustable levers à la the TVS Apache RTR 200 4V, and perhaps even an adjustable inverted front fork. Apart from these, the motorcycle’s power delivery and riding modes could also be fine-tuned for a more engaging ride. 

BS6 Ducati Multistrada V4 

After launching the BS6 Diavel 1260 and the BS6 Panigale V4, Ducati could continue its BS6-launch salvo with the updated Multistrada V4. Once launched, it will be the sportiest adventure motorcycle in the country. Here’s what you can expect from the Italian mile-muncher.

BS6 BMW R 1250 GS

Hot on the heels of the Multistrada V4 is the BS6 BMW R 1250 GS. The Bavarian bruiser was teased recently, hinting at its imminent launch. Apart from a cleaner engine, the upcoming iteration will also likely get a special livery to celebrate its 40th anniversary. Take a look at all the details here.

2021 KTM RC 125, RC 200 and RC 390

KTM is likely to launch not one but three faired motorcycles this month. The best part is that these bikes -- 2021 KTM RC 125, RC 200, and the RC 390 -- get an all-new design among other updates. The new KTM RC 390’s unofficial bookings have already commenced. If you’re wondering what’s new on this motorcycle, check this out. The KTM RC 125 is likely to get the same set of features and other updates as the RC 200, and you can read all about the latter here.

Yamaha Fascino 125 Fi Hybrid & Ray ZR 125 Fi Hybrid

Yamaha unveiled the Fascino 125 Hybrid and announced the upcoming Ray ZR 125 Hybrid at the launch of the FZ-X. Expect the Japanese brand to launch both scooters this month. The upcoming Fascino 125 and Ray ZR 125 Hybrid will be the first of their kind in India. You can read more in detail about how the mild-hybrid system works here. 

Ola Electric Scooter

Ola Electric seems to be on track for its first electric scooter launch. The CEO of Ola Cabs first tweeted, seeking opinions on the colour schemes, and then shortly after, posted an image of the factory, the first phase of which is almost complete. These developments have led us to believe that the Ola Electric Scooter might just be launched next month. If you’re wondering what the price and other features could be, check this out.
