At Royal Enfield, there is a lot of excitement about the Continental GT that is set for an international launch in the second week of September. With its state of the art Oragadam plant steadily increasing production and a differentiated product pipeline, Royal Enfield is working to expand its distribution footprint both in the domestic and international markets towards achieving leadership in the global mid-size motorcycle segment.

The Royal Enfield Continental GT is powered by a fuel injected 535cc single-cylinder four-stroke liquid cooled engine. The technical specifications are still a secret but it's certain that the Continental GT will be the fastest Royal Enfield in the current family.
