Upcoming Bikes in January 2024 | Shotgun 650, Hero 440cc Bike, Ather 450 Apex, Chetak Premium & More
Well the festive season might be over but the motorcycling season has just picked up its spce thanks to all the two wheelers that are coming your and our way in this month that is January 2024 and uh of all the bikes that we have listed in this video we’ve already
Ridden quite a few including the brand new Royal infield shotgun 650 so without further Ado let’s get straight into it but before we do don’t forget to like share and subscribe to byw and also wish you a very happy New Year now before we begin let us tell you that
January will be a sort of mixed bag that means you’ll have pedrol powered and EES as well and the first Eevee on this list is the ather 450 Apex now going by its name it gets this Apex tag which means uh this will sit above all the current
Ather scooters and will be the top crop from ather so you can expect it to be priced and placed above the 450s and the 450x Gen 3 with the with the pro pack as well even the teasers have hinted at an accelerating performance in terms of acceleration and top speed then some of
Its other teasers reveal that the 450 Apex will get a transparent side panels with orange frame visible from the sides this should make it quite attractive and entice the younger buyers even more now for your reference the current most expensive ather scooter is priced at
Rupees 1.70 lakh It Is the 450x Gen 3 with the pro pack so we expect the 450 Apex to cost at least 15 to 20,000 rupes more this will not only set it apart from the base models but also create a notable difference in the overall product portfolio for
Ather now we’ve all had a glimpse of the royal infield shotgun 650 first at the Moto War 2023 and then we just got back from riding it in Los Angeles and our review of the shotgun goes live in the next 2 weeks but uh before we proceed
Let us tell you what you can expect from the new 650cc Royal Enfield well firstly it’s based on the exis in 650cc platform from Royal Enfield and you can expect it to have the same engine that is a 648 CC parallel twin motor and it makes 46.3 BP
And 52.3 newon M this is the same motor that Royal infield uses for the super meteor the Interceptor and the Continental GT however the shotgun is a more urban themed bike from what we’ve seen so far and it also gets a smaller front wheel which means it could offer
Better City riding experience and more Nim handling than the meteor 650 looking at it images the shotgun gets neutrally placed footpegs which could offer a more commanding position than the meteor now the shotgun 650 will sit under the super meteor and we expect it to cost somewhere around 3.45 to 3.5 lakh rupees
X showroom and we recommend you to stay tuned to B wal because our review of the shotgun goes live on 15 January 2024 like we reported in our story just a few days ago husana India is finally set to to enter the 400cc market and its
First bike will be the SWAT pin 41 and we’ve confirmed the same with our dealer sources and the bike has also been spotted quite a few times and we already know what it could look like what its engine what its Hardware what its features could be and uh let’s tell you
All of it right away now the SWAT P 401 being a Scrambler we’ve we already know that it gets a slightly rugged build quite some angular body panels all over but in terms of sizing you can take the new Duke 390 for a reference and uh imagine a slightly just a slightly
Larger bike with its body work when compared to the Duke rest is the engine and the hardware speaking of the engine we know that Bajaj KTM and husana share the platform so we expect the SWAT PM 401 to get the same engine as the new 390 dup and that is a 399cc single
Cylinder liquid cooled engine and it makes 45 BP and 39 newon M and it gets a sixspeed gearbox and in terms of engine Char character we expect the fart fil 401 to mimic the 390 Dukes characteristics that is a short stroke quick ring engine and uh with a lot of
Power delivery on the go and something that revs very quickly at a slightly higher RPM than what it used to before in terms of Hardware we’ve already seen that the test bike was equipped with USD front forks and a Monoshock now both of these appeared to be adjustable similar
To the current 390 du and the brakes were single disc at the front and at the rear however the test bike has been seen with spoke wheels and alloy wheels so maybe husana could offer the spoke wheels as an ACC for people who want to take their uh SWAT will and Scrambler
Off-roading and that would overall offer better convenience now the area where husana could manage to keep the overall cost low is the features department and that is what we are going to tell you in the next bit it will get LED headlight a fully digital console but an LCD instead
Of a TF we also think it will skip on smartphone connectivity and maybe get the quick shifter and the ride by wire with traction control this setup will help baj that is the parent company to keep the overall production cost low and also manage the final pricing of the
SWAT P 401 we expect baj to price the huana spart P 401 somewhere around 2.65 lakh to 2.75 lakh and once launch it will rival the trium Scrambler 400x the Royal Enfield scram 4 L and the SD scrambler in that category and the next brand that we have
Is Java with its classic now this is a brand with a lot of diverse history and similar to SD motorcycles the Java Bikes 2 have been due for an upgrade for quite a while now with the changes that the brand will likely bring in this uh season this month you can expect the
Java classic to offer better value for money and a better overall package as well we expect Java to make slight changes to the standard model make it more refined tune the right quality to make it better and improve the overall finishing levels on the bike that said
It design is is likely to remain unchanged currently the Java standard gets a single cylinder 294 cc engine and it makes about 26 BHP and 26 newon me of torque but maybe Java could offer a larger and heavily rework Engine with the new model similar to the current
Model the updated Java standard could also get slightly reworked features so it could get doall channel abs like the current model and drls and maybe Java could finally offer connectivity features as well the new updates could call for a slightly higher asking price than now which is R 1.81 lakh for the
Single Channel abs and R 2.3 lakh for the DI Channel ABS Model now the next model the next Eevee on this list could be the chak premium so baj recently launched the chak urban with quite a few updates and we expect the same treatment for the chak premium as well so what it could get is little to no changes on the design and the
Hardware but new features in terms of a larger display more features connected AC ity features with navigation and a larger battery for more range and also the tech pack that the Urbane just received for reference the current chetak premium retails at about 1 15,000 but with all these upgrades you can
Expect the updated 2024 model to cost a few thousand rupees more and that is what will separate it from the new cak IR and last but not least hero motop is also finally set to debut it’s 440cc bike now we all know that the harleydavidson x440 has been developed
And is being produced by Hero motop so the new bike that is coming from hero could it will be based on the same platform so it can borrow the features the hardware and also the engine for its own 440cc bike for its features the x440 comes with LED lights a digital console
With smartphone connectivity and the all Channel ABS Harley offers the Bluetooth connectivity only with the top spec bike so hero could follow the suit and offer the smartphone connectivity only specific to certain variants the Hero 440cc bike could get all of this but a different design and it could be
On the line of something like a roadster model now to give you a reference for the new herob bikes engine we know that the harson x440 uses a single cylinder 440cc engine it makes 27 BHP 38 new M and gets a six-speed gearbox so all of
This could be mimicked for the new Hero bike with the same internals as well but what could change maybe is hero could tweak the final drive the gear ratios and the overall state of tune to suit its upcoming bike and this will be a long-stroke motor with a good low end
And mid-range for cruising touring purposes and it’s fairly refined is what we learned while riding the harleydavidson x440 and for its hardware and features we expect hero to give its bike USD front FKS and dual rare shocks with a single disc at both ends and alloy wheels but in terms of features we
Expect hero to give slightly more than what it has has been doing overall so you can expect it to get uh LED lights uh a TFT screen uh with smartphone connectivity but this would vary as per the variance like we see on the XO 40 and it would get navigation and all the
Other comfort features that the rider needs while a it now hero is known to make some of the very affordable bikes and this could be the same case with its 440cc bike for reference the x440 retails from rupees 2.39 lakh but the Hero bike would cost sub2 lakh rupees
Which would make it again very affordable and more accessible to the mass market and uh the bike will be launched on 22nd January and we will ride it in February so stay tuned to B wal for its reviews and all the other updates that are coming on your
Way now these are all the two wheelers that will come your with this month and if you want to know anything else let us know in the comment section and also stay tuned because quite a few of the reviews from these uh bikes that we just listed bikes and scooters will be going
