The EICMA is a global fanfare for all motorcycle enthusiasts where manufacturers from all across the world showcase their upcoming offerings either in concept or full production-ready forms. The 2024 edition is expected to carry the same hype as the previous editions with plenty of models to be exhibited at Milan.
We look at five most highly anticipated motorcycles that will be showcased at the EICMA this year and will head to the Indian market at some point in the future.
1. Royal Enfield Interceptor Bear 650
The Interceptor Bear 650 or simply the Bear 650 will be the next offering from Royal Enfield which has already broken covers and the images going viral all across the internet. However, the bike will make its official debut in full glory amidst all the glitters at the 2024 EICMA. Based on the same underpinnings as the Interceptor 650, the Bear is a road-biased scrambler that offers a different seat, fatter knobby tyres, and a taller stance thanks to a larger 19-inch front wheel.

2. Royal Enfield electric bike
The second biggest unveil from Royal Enfield will be its first-ever electric motorcycle which was recently teased by the brand on its social media handles. Speculated to be named the Flying Flea, a test mule of this bike was recently spotted on the streets of Barcelona in Spain where it is believed to be conceptualised. We expect Royal Enfield to showcase a pre-production prototype of this motorcycle at the EICMA since the launch of a full-fledged model is still some distance away.
