Every year, EICMA unveils exciting new bikes and concepts. While not all of the two-wheelers will make it to India, let alone materialise into production-ready two-wheelers, we think these five had the biggest say at this year’s event.

Royal Enfield's Electric Adventure HIM-E

Royal Enfield Himalayan Electric Testbed - 3

Introduced alongside the new Himalayan, this electric adventure bike isn't a concept but a starting point for Royal Enfield's electric ventures. It resembles the older Himalayan, exuding a functional look, and seems to be a window to promises that will evolve with new electric concepts in the coming years. Read more about the HIM-E and know about Royal Enfield Electric plans.

Hero Xoom 160

The Hero stall had featured its adventure-styled maxi scooter, the Xoom 160. It was the first maxi scooter for an Indian manufacturer, with a central spine, tall face, and a massive boot. With a nearly production-ready appearance, it is anticipated to hit the market in 2024. Here is more information about Xoom 160.

Ultraviolette F99

The Ultraviolette F99 was showcased as India's fastest electric bike. While it is only a racing platform, the impressive specs, including 120 horsepower, 0-100 kmph in 3 seconds, and a top speed of 265 km/h, rivals middleweight ICE bikes.

Honda CBR600RR

Honda’s middleweight sportbike ambitions have made a comeback with the CBR600RR, a 599 cc inline-four compliant with modern emission laws. Featuring MotoGP-derived electronics and top-spec components, this track-focused bike signalled a resurgence in the 600 cc class. Here is all you need to about the CBR600RR

Kawasaki Ninja 500

At EICMA 2023, Kawasaki introduced the new Ninja 500. It comes with a 451 cc parallel-twin motor, offering increased torque. The bike is designed to look more substantial and includes a few techy features, adding to its appeal in the mid-displacement category.
