Argentine Army Trains with Royal Enfield Motorcycles

Defense News ,Argentina :- In Argentina, the army has been up to something exciting. They've been training in a tough place called Patagonia. And guess what? They've been using special motorcycles from Royal Enfield, called the Himalayan, to do it!

These soldiers from the 24th Mechanized Infantry Regiment have been practicing their skills with these cool bikes. And from the pictures we've seen, it looks like they're getting pretty good at it. They're even figuring out how to use these motorcycles in different kinds of battles, like against tanks.

But that's not all that's happening. There's some big news for Royal Enfield too! This company, which makes awesome motorcycles in India, has decided to team up with Grupo Simpa, their distributor in Argentina. Together, they're going to start making these bikes right here in Argentina.

This is a huge deal because it's the first time Royal Enfield is making their motorcycles outside of India. And it shows just how important Argentina is becoming for them in Latin America.

Now, let's talk about these Himalayan motorcycles. They're not your average bikes. They're tough and built for adventure. They've got a strong engine that can handle all sorts of roads. And when we say strong, we mean it – this engine can pump out 24.3 horsepower and 32 Newton-meters of torque!

These motorcycles are made for both on-road and off-road trips. They've got a big fuel tank, so you can go far without needing to refuel. And safety is a big deal too – they come with disc brakes on both wheels and something called dual-channel ABS to keep you safe on the road.

Royal Enfield has been making waves in Argentina since 2018. They started with just a few dealerships, but now they've got five big ones and over 40 smaller ones all across Latin America.

And with this new assembly plant in Argentina, it's clear they're serious about sticking around. They want to keep growing and reaching more people in this part of the world. It's a win-win situation for both Royal Enfield and Argentina.
