- Based on the Himalayan 450
- Same engine, but different dynamics and riding posture
- Could be unveiled at end of 2026
Royal Enfield looks set to expand its 450 lineup with the addition of a new Scram 450, expected to arrive around 2027, according to reports.
Positioned as a bridge between the Royal Enfield Himalayan 450 and the Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450, the Scram 450 is likely to blend elements of both, combining light off-road capability with more road-focused usability. However, reports suggest there will be distinct tweaks to both chassis and styling to give it its own identity.
The Scram lineup itself began with the Royal Enfield Scram 411 in 2022, followed by the Royal Enfield Scram 440 in 2025. Like its siblings, the Scram 450 is expected to use the same 452cc “Sherpa” single-cylinder platform. It will likely run a 19-inch front wheel, smaller than the Himalayan’s 21-inch setup, paired with a 17-inch rear wheel shared across both the Himalayan and Guerrilla.
Suspension is expected to mirror the Himalayan more closely, with a USD fork replacing the telescopic setup seen on the Guerrilla. In terms of design, the tank shape is said to resemble the Guerrilla, while the seat and rear section will be unique to the Scram, helping differentiate it visually.
Other expected styling elements include a single-piece seat, side-mounted number boards, and a more circular exhaust design compared to its siblings. Performance should remain familiar, with the same 452cc engine producing 29.4bhp and approximately around 35Nm of torque.
On the features front, the Scram 450 is likely to include switchable dual-channel ABS, multiple riding modes, and a slip/assist clutch, bringing it in line with the rest of Royal Enfield’s modern 450 range. If positioned right, the Scram 450 could fill a useful middle ground in the lineup, offering more versatility than the Guerrilla, while being less off-road focused (and likely more accessible) than the Himalayan.
