2024 Royal Enfield Interceptor & Continental GT 650 launched in France. Check what’s new
Royal Enfield has rolled out the updated Interceptor 650 and Continental GT 650 in France with a host of upgrades for the 2024 model year. The 650 Twins for France now come with a new LED headlamp and switchgear borrowed from the Super Meteor 650. The bikes finally get factory-fitted alloy wheels with tubeless tyres bringing more convenience to users.
Other upgrades include a USB Type-A charging socket and a reworked saddle with additional padding for more comfort. Our readers will remember that these changes were introduced on the India-spec RE 650 Twins earlier this year. Lastly, the 2024 Royal Enfield Interceptor and Continental GT 650 get new colour options with single and dual-tone schemes. The engine and exhaust have also been blacked out for a stealthy appearance. The new colours will be available with the existing colour options, while the spoked wheels will continue to be on offer.
