Royal Enfield has trademarked the Meteor name for an upcoming motorcycle and a range of apparel and riding gear. As per the history books, the Meteor family of motorcycles is what the Interceptor evolved from and if RE is to play its heritage card accurately, it the new Meteor could be an even more affordable version of the Interceptor 650. We expect it to be styled on the lines of the Royal Enfield Bullet, and to be available in BS6 guise only.

Like the Royal Enfield Interceptor 650, which made all the big headlines with its 2018 launch in India, the Meteor could be the next big news from RE, with a possible showcase lined up for EICMA 2019. With a Rs 2.50 lakh starting price, the Interceptor 650 stunned Indian audiences with its specifications, features and performance. However, the new Meteor could be offered at an even more accessible price point. This also creates room for a slightly more premium Interceptor 650 with alloy wheels and some more bits of equipment which may be ready for launch in India soon.
