The EICMA (Esposizione Internazionale Ciclo Motociclo e Accessori) 2025, fondly addressed as Milan Motorcycle Show, will be held between Nov 4-9 in Italy. Several leading global two-wheeler brands will showcase their new motorcycles at the event.

Hence, in this piece, we will talk about the 3 upcoming motorcycles from these Indian manufacturers debuting at the EICMA 2025.
1. TVS 450 Adventure
TVS Motor Company has officially teased a new motorcycle for debut on Nov 4 at the EICMA 2025. Though the company has remained tightlipped about the upcoming model, we expect it to be a 450cc adventure motorcycle based on the BMW F 450 GS. TVS and BMW share partnership in the Indian market for the development of small displacement (300cc) bikes. Earlier, BMW models such as the G 310 GS and G 310 R were locally developed at the TVS factory in Hosur for the Indian market.
Recently, TVS MD Sudarshan Venu confirmed that not only TVS but Norton will also use the BMW’s 450cc engine platform. The most premium and expensive TVS motorcycle till date has been officially teased on Instagram and it will be quite interesting to see it in flesh at the event in Italy. It will be at loggerheads with Royal Enfield Himalayan 450 and KTM 390 Adventure.
2. Royal Enfield Himalayan 750
Royal Enfield Himalayan 750 will break cover at the EICMA 2025. Recently, the production-ready version of the ADV bike was spotted in Chennai with alloy wheels. It has also been captured on camera with spoke wheels earlier. Some of the notable elements in the Himalayan 750 will include front dual disc brake, rear adjustable suspension, TFT Tripper dash with Google Maps and Music controls, and all-LED lighting.
At the heart, it will have a 750cc parallel-twin engine which is believed to be developed from the existing 648cc mill. It could generate power and torque in the ballpark of 55 bhp and 60 Nm, respectively, while linked to a 6-speed gearbox. The Himalayan 750 will be the biggest and most expensive RE bike till date. It could be showcased in India at the brand’s annual motorcycling festival, the Motoverse 2025, in Goa on Nov 21.
3. Hero Xpulse 421
Hero MotoCorp had teased the Xpulse 421 through design sketches at the previous edition of EICMA in Italy. Now, we heave learnt through sources that the biggest version of the Xpulse till date is likely to have its world premiere at the upcoming edition of the trade show in Milan. The design patent has already been filed by the brand in the Indian market and the leaked images reveal a lot of interesting details about the upcoming adventure motorcycle.
Some of the notable features in the Xpulse 421 will be USD front forks, 21-inch front wheel, switchable dual-channel ABS, TFT instrument cluster with Bluetooth connectivity and turn-by-turn navigation.
