Indian Motorcycles in India 2026 — Prices
Indian Motorcycle's listing here covers 2 models, both large-capacity cruisers priced between Rs.12.99 lakh and Rs.14.95 lakh, using 1130cc and 1250cc engines. Neither is discontinued.
The brand competes directly with Harley-Davidson's imported range rather than with anything at mainstream prices. There is no accessible entry model, no locally built option and no small-capacity alternative. These are specialist purchases for buyers who specifically want a large American V-twin cruiser, and who have both the budget and the dealer access to support one. Cross-shopping generally happens against Harley-Davidson's imported range rather than within the Indian Motorcycle line-up itself, which offers only these two closely related machines.

The two models
The Indian Scout at Rs.12.99 lakh is the entry model, using a 1130.7cc V-twin. The Scout Bobber at Rs.14.95 lakh moves to 1250cc with bobber styling — chopped mudguards, a lower stance and a more minimal look.
Both are heavy, torque-rich machines built for relaxed highway riding rather than agility. The Bobber's lowered setup looks distinctive but generally means less suspension travel and a firmer ride, which is worth experiencing before committing.
Against Harley-Davidson
This is the comparison most buyers are making. Indian's Scout range sits close to the Harley Nightster and Sportster S on both price and concept, and the choice usually comes down to styling preference and dealer proximity.
Harley has the larger network in India and a broader model range, including the accessible X440 pair that Indian has no equivalent to. Indian's appeal is that far fewer are sold, so the bikes stand out more.
What ownership involves
Neither model here carries a published ARAI mileage figure, but large-capacity V-twins of this type return modest economy, and fuel is in any case the smallest part of the running budget.
Tyres are expensive and wear according to weight and torque. Servicing must be done at an authorised dealer, and Indian operates from a very small number of outlets concentrated in major cities. Parts are imported, so lead times after a failure or a claim can run to weeks. Confirm dealer proximity before buying — for a motorcycle at this price, that is a practical constraint rather than a detail.
