Royal Enfield has silently launched the
Interceptor 650 BS6 in India. The new cleaner and greener model is up to INR
9,000 (approx) more expensive than the outgoing model. The Interceptor 650 BS6
started arriving at Royal Enfield dealerships in February 2020 and its
deliveries have begun.
The Interceptor 650 BS6 costs INR 2.64
lakh in Orange Crush, Silver Spectre and Mark Three colours. Moving up the
ladder, we have the Ravishing Red and Baker Express options which have been
priced at INR 2.72 lakh*. And the most expensive colour option is the Glitter
and Dust, which retails at INR 2.85 lakh*.
In terms of performance, the Interceptor
650 BS6 comes fitted with the same 648 cc twin-cylinder engine that was in the
Interceptor 650 BS4. In its BS6 state of tune, this 4-stroke, SOHC, air-cooled
engine produces marginally less power at slightly early in the rev band. As far
as the torque output is concerned, Royal Enfield hasn’t disclosed it yet.

Interceptor 650, Royal Enfield has made no changes whatsoever. The BS6 version
