A New Chapter in Classic Motorcycling
Royal Enfield, the country’s iconic two-wheeler brand, has launched the much-awaited Classic 650 in Chennai. With this launch, the company expands its popular 650cc lineup, offering a motorcycle that blends vintage design with modern performance. Positioned as a more muscular, powerful, and refined version of the Classic 350, the Classic 650 is set to redefine cruising in the mid-segment category.
Variants, Colours & Pricing
The Royal Enfield Classic 650 has been introduced in three distinct variants — each featuring its own unique color palette and styling cues:
Hotrod (base variant) – ₹3.37 lakh (ex-showroom)
Classic – ₹3.41 lakh (ex-showroom)
Chrome (top-end variant) – ₹3.50 lakh (ex-showroom)
Each variant comes with signature color schemes and finishes that highlight the retro DNA of the Classic line. In keeping with its heritage, the Classic 650 also features tube-type spoke wheels, enhancing its vintage appeal.
Engine & Performance
The new Classic 650 is powered by a 648cc parallel-twin, air-cooled engine, the same proven engine that powers other Royal Enfield 650 twins. It produces:
46.3 bhp of power
52.3 Nm of torque
Mated to a 6-speed gearbox
This setup ensures smooth power delivery, solid highway cruising, and effortless touring. Riders can expect the throaty exhaust note thanks to the dual exhaust setup, which continues as a trademark element in the 650 series.

While staying true to its retro roots, the Classic 650 incorporates several modern enhancements:
LED headlamp and taillamp
Adjustable clutch and brake levers
Tripper Navigation system
Dual-channel ABS for enhanced braking safety
