Royal Enfield Scram 440 Bookings Resume After Hiatus : Full Details
After a brief pause, Royal Enfield has officially resumed bookings and sales of the Scram 440 in India. This comes as exciting news for enthusiasts eagerly awaiting the return of this adventure crossover motorcycle, which blends the ruggedness of a scrambler with everyday usability. The Scram 440 is expected to be the spiritual successor to the Himalayan 411, with modern updates and a new heart under its tank.
Why Were Scram 440 Bookings Halted?
The halt in Scram 440 bookings was primarily due to internal supply chain realignments and the brand’s transition towards newer platforms like the 440cc Sherpa engine, which underpins both the new Himalayan 450 and now the updated Scram. Royal Enfield wanted to streamline production and distribution as it shifted focus to the new generation J-platform-based motorcycles.
Additionally, Royal Enfield has been working on refining its product lineup and ensuring better inventory management across dealerships. The temporary hold allowed the company to reintroduce the Scram 440 with subtle changes and ensure a smoother customer experience.
What’s New in the Scram 440?
The new Royal Enfield Scram 440 will continue to carry forward the urban ADV styling and lightweight ergonomics of the previous Scram 411, but will now be powered by the new 452cc Sherpa engine – a liquid-cooled, single-cylinder unit that also powers the 2024 Himalayan 450.
Key Features Expected:
- 452cc liquid-cooled engine producing around 40PS and 40Nm torque
- 6-speed gearbox with slipper clutch
- Ride-by-wire throttle
- Switchable ABS and multiple ride modes
- Digital TFT instrument cluster with Bluetooth connectivity
- Updated chassis for better off-road handling
This upgrade makes the Scram 440 more powerful, refined, and capable – both in city traffic and light off-road conditions.
