2025 Indian Scout Range Launched In India Starting From ₹12.99 Lakh

After being silent for quite a while in India, American bike marque, Indian Motorcycle, has now made a big comeback in 2025 by launching the new Scout range. The Indian Scout is available in eight different trims, namely,  Scout Bobber, Scout Classic, Sport Scout, Super Scout, Scout Sixty Bobber, Scout Sixty Classic, Sport Scout Sixty, and the 101 Scout. Each trims are further divided into three different variants, except for the 101 Scout which is a one of its own kind. Prices start from ₹12.99 lakh with the Scout Sixty Bobber. 

The Engines

Being big and burly is very typical of the Indian Scout range, and what can be more American than being powered by a big V-twin engine? The Indian Scout range is available with two, liquid-cooled V-twin engine options – 999 cc and 1,250 cc. The former is available with the Scout “Sixty” bikes, and it produces 85 bhp/ 87 Nm. The rest are powered by the bigger 1,250 cc engine, which produces 105 bhp/ 108 Nm, but in the 101 Scout, it has been tuned to produce 111 bhp/ 111 Nm. A six-speed gearbox takes care of the transmission duties on the 1250 cc mill, while the smaller V-twin gets a 5-speed gearbox.  

Underpinnings

Irrespective of the trim levels, the hardware components of the bikes are all the same. It gets a telescopic fork and dual-shock absorbers. Despite the 100 bhp+ power on offer here, all Indian Scout bikes are available with a single-disc brake at the front measuring 298 mm wide, and the rear disc is also of the same size. The seat height is very accessible at 665 mm, and due to its low slung styling, you end up with just 109 mm of ground clearance, which can be an issue on our pothole-ridden roads. Lastly, despite its cruiser-like appeal, the Indian Scout is available with a 13-litre fuel tank, which, given the size of the engine, feels quite small. As for its kerb weight, the Indian Scout Bobber with the big 1,250 cc V-twin tips the scales at 246 kg, while the Scout Sixty Bobber with the 999 cc V-twin weighs 234 kg.  

Features

On the feature front, Indian Motorcycles is offering them based on the variant of each Scout trim that you choose. There will be three variants: Standard, Limited, and Limited+Tech. 

The Indian Scout standard variant has only noteworthy features: LED headlight, ABS, and a semi-digital analog instrument console. The Limited variant offers ride modes, USB charging, and traction control. The Limited+Tech variant has a fully digital instrument console with all connectivity features. 

Competition

The Indian Scout range will compete against the likes of Harley-Davidson Sportster S and the Triumph Bonneville Speedmaster. Deliveries for the bike have already commenced, and the new Scout range is already available across Indian dealerships in the country.
