Royal Enfield's Electric Himalayan Testbed Revealed
Royal Enfield's electric Himalayan Testbed has been making headlines since its first reveal at EICMA 2023.
The electric version of the Himalayan was first seen alongside the launch of the Himalayan 450 in India, stealing the limelight and sparking interest in an all-electric future.
The initial testbed bike was a rough and ready prototype, with a Heath Robinson-esque design featuring commercial-grade electronic systems and a battery motor system.
Its design included commercial-grade electronic systems that were grafted to a battery motor system that wouldn’t look out of place in the movie Short Circuit.
Images shared by Royal Enfield earlier this year further fueled speculation about an imminent arrival into the electric adventure segment.
