The motorcycle giant Royal Enfield, known for producing powerful and premium bikes, will introduce a new 250cc motorcycle in India soon.

As per reports from the media, the company has already started negotiating with Chinese automobile firm CFMoto for developing the hybrid engine technology for the platform.

The new 250cc bike from Royal Enfield will be powered by the 250cc engine from CFMoto, and it will be small in size and light in weight, with hybrid tech included. The Royal Enfield bike with this engine will provide mileage of a maximum of 45 km/liter and a maximum of 55 km/liter when coupled with a hybrid system.
