Yamaha Tenere 4 Concept Revealed Ahead Of EICMA 2026

Yamaha has unveiled the Tenere 4 Concept ahead of EICMA 2026 in Milan, previewing a new lightweight adventure motorcycle that will sit below the Tenere 700 in its lineup. The concept is part of the Japanese manufacturer's plans to expand its adventure motorcycle range over the coming years.

The Tenere 4 Concept features a newly developed single-cylinder engine designed to deliver strong low- and mid-range torque alongside usable performance at higher engine speeds. Yamaha has not disclosed the engine's displacement, power output or torque figures, but the motorcycle is being developed with European A2 licence requirements in mind.

The motorcycle gets a new steel frame designed to balance strength and low weight. Its off-road-focused hardware includes KYB suspension, 21-inch front and 18-inch rear spoked wheels, and Michelin Anakee Wild tyres. The concept also features a compact titanium exhaust from Akrapovic.

Styling cues include a slim profile, a low and flat fuel tank, rally-inspired bodywork, a tall windscreen and hand guards. The design draws inspiration from the larger Tenere models, while the lightweight platform aims to make off-road riding more accessible.

Yamaha has not announced a production timeline or pricing for the Tenere 4. The concept, however, signals the brand's intent to compete in the growing lightweight adventure motorcycle segment. This is something that will definitely make its way onto Indian shores.

New Norton 450 To Be Launched In 2027

Norton has shown the first glimpse of its new 450 motorcycle, which is set to make its debut at EICMA tomorrow. The brand has confirmed that sales will begin in 2027, and the bike is also expected to make its way to India in the same year. Now, full specifications, along with its name, are under wraps, but the brand has been kind enough to share some details.

 

The design is quite different from what you'd expect of a motorcycle in this segment. It has a sharply sculpted body, with large side panels extending around the engine. The overall shape, particularly around the sides, appears to take some inspiration from the larger Manx model. The alloy wheel design is also from Norton's wardrobe.

Norton 450 1

The 454cc, liquid-cooled, single-cylinder engine makes 45Nm of torque. Norton hasn't revealed its power output. The engine is housed in an aluminium frame, which would make it a first in the segment. From the looks of it, the cycle parts include a USD fork at the front and what appears to be a monoshock at the rear. There are disc brakes at both ends and alloy wheels. On the features front, it gets an 8-inch TFT display.

 

Norton has not confirmed an India launch date, but the motorcycle is expected to be built at TVS Motor Company's Hosur plant. The new motorcycle is part of Norton's revival under TVS Motor Company. At EICMA 2025, the brand showcased four new models – the Manx, Manx R, Atlas and Atlas GT.

 

Norton will launch the 450 model in India sometime in 2027. Given it is a single-cylinder, it is expected to throw its hat against models such as the KTM 390 Duke, Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 and the like. However, the Norton offering will be on the premium side.

The Aztec Green colour on the Himalayan 750 is available with alloy wheels. The highlight of this colour is the dark green portion on the lower half of the cowl, along with a flowing pattern featuring the ‘Himalayan 750’ lettering. There are bright green accents on the alloys of the motorcycle.

 

Siberia White

Himalayan 750 1

The Siberia White colour scheme uses white as the base colour, and the cowl gets bold yellow, orange and brown stripes layered above each other. Moreover, there are black stripes at certain intervals. This colour option comes with spoked wheels. The ‘Himalayan 750’ badging is finished in black and positioned on the lower half of the cowl.

 

Teutonic Black

Himalayan 750 3

The Teutonic Black features a black base colour with a shade of maroon on the cowl and the tank. Unlike the other colours, the seat is finished in a dual-tone colour scheme with a mix of red and black.

Viking Bronze

Himalayan 750 2

In terms of looks, it gets a new headlamp cowl that extends back towards the tank. It misses out on the beak-like design seen on the Himalayan 450. The turn signals are mounted on the cowl. Although the technical specifications are not out, we can see that it has adjustable front forks.

 

Alongside this, it has a circular digital instrument cluster. The Himalayan 750 is Royal Enfield's first entry into the 750cc class, and its engine is a twin-cylinder unit.

Flagship Hero Xpulse 421 set for Eicma debut tomorrow

Hero MotoCorp is expected to unveil its flagship Xpulse 421 at EICMA 2026 in Milan tomorrow, November 3. A new teaser from the company features its rally-racing machines and references the Xpulse name, but does not show the motorcycle itself. The timing aligns with EICMA’s press day, which kicks off the show. 

The Xpulse 421 was first previewed as a concept at EICMA 2024 and has since been spotted testing, including in Ladakh. It is expected to sit above the Xpulse 210 as Hero’s largest adventure motorcycle. Reports point to a new 421cc, liquid-cooled, single-cylinder engine paired with a six-speed gearbox, though Hero has not confirmed the final specifications or performance figures. 

Xpulse 421

Spy shots suggest an adventure-focused setup, including a trellis frame, long-travel suspension and spoke wheels with a 21-inch front. A large TFT display and rider-focused electronics are also expected, but details will only be clear once the production bike is revealed.

An India launch is expected in 2027. When it arrives, the Xpulse 421 is likely to take on the Royal Enfield Himalayan 450 and KTM 390 Adventure in the mid-capacity adventure segment.

On the design front, the electric Cooper SE will not look all that different from the petrol Cooper S already on sale in the country. Differences come down to the grille and the badging, with the Cooper SE featuring an enclosed grille - in the same design as the ICE Cooper S - and yellow S badging on the nose and tailgate to the petrol car’s red badge. Alloy wheel designs too are likely to be different, and the Cooper SE could also be offered in some colours unique to the powertrain option.

Inside, the cabin too is not expected to get very many differences with the most notable expected to be EV-specific graphics on the digital interfaces within the cabin. The SE retains the circular central infotainment touchscreen that also doubles as the instrument cluster and the knitted-top dashboard and door cards. In terms of features, expect the SE to offer similar tech as the Cooper S, including a heads-up display, powered front seats, all-LED lighting, wireless phone charger, auto climate control, Harman Kardon surround sound system, panoramic glass roof and more.
 

Under the skin, the Cooper SE retains the front-wheel-drive layout of its petrol sibling with an electric motor and battery pack replacing the internal combustion engine and fuel tank. The electric motor develops a peak 215 bhp and 330 Nm and is paired with a 54.2 kWh battery as standard. Claimed range stands at 402 km with a 0-100 kmph sprint time of 6.2 seconds.


Mini Cooper SE 3

 

Mini claims that the Cooper SE supports up to 95 kW DC fast charging with a 10 to 80 per cent charge time of around 30 minutes.
 

Mini Cooper Paul Smith Edition

Not much has changed from the prototype, but the new Himalayan 750 features a design that differs from its smaller stablemates.

Updated Toyota Innova Hycross Launched In Indonesia: Gets Larger Screens

The Toyota Innova Hycross has received an update in Indonesia, where it is sold as the Kijang Innova Zenix. The changes are limited to the cabin, with the MPV getting larger screens and a dashcam. The exterior remains identical to the India-spec model, with the facelifted Hycross set to launch in India on November 26.

 

Also Read: Toyota Innova Hycross Facelift India Launch On November 26: Flex-Fuel Hybrid Incoming

Toyota Innova Hycross Updated In Indonesia 1

The star changes are on the inside, where it gets a new 12.3-inch TFT instrument display, which is now standard across all hybrid variants in Indonesia. The India-spec Hycross currently gets a much smaller 7-inch unit. Higher variants of the Indonesian MPV also get a 12.3-inch touchscreen, whereas a 10.4-inch infotainment system is offered in India. A dashcam is another addition.

Toyota Innova Hycross Updated In Indonesia 4

Toyota is expected to bring these cabin updates to India with the facelift. The Indonesian model continues with the same 2.0-litre petrol engine otherwise.


The Hycross arrived in India in 2022 and has since taken over from the diesel-powered Innova Crysta as the go-to Toyota MPV for family buyers. The upcoming update will be its first major facelift, and there's quite a bit more to it than a new set of screens.

Toyota Innova Hycross and Mahindra Xev 9s m25

Toyota is expected to introduce a flex-fuel hybrid powertrain, which would be a first for the brand in India. The company had given us a preview of this almost three years ago, with a flex-fuel prototype based on the Hycross. Its 2.0-litre, four-cylinder petrol engine was modified to run on fuel with up to 85 per cent ethanol (E85).

 

The changes went beyond the engine's calibration. Toyota used different spark plugs and piston rings to improve corrosion resistance, along with a cold-start system, an ethanol sensor and revised catalyst programming. The fuel pump, filter, tank and pipes were also modified to handle the higher ethanol content.

toyota innova hycross facelift launch on november 26 carandbike 1

The facelift will also bring a fresh face. Spy shots and patent drawings point to a redesigned grille, with the current model's large honeycomb pattern making way for a perforated central section that flows into the front bumper. The profile is expected to remain much the same, barring possible changes to the alloy wheel design.

Best Cars for Tall Drivers Over 6 Feet: Maximum Headroom Legroom Under Rs 15 Lakh

If your height is more than 6 feet it isn't easy to find those perfect set of wheels which offer both good headroom as well as legroom. The choices become even more limited if the maximum spend is kept at Rs. 15 lakh. As most of the vehicles in this price bracket belong to the sub 4 meter segments tall drivers are not able to find a lot of space while sitting inside. However some models buck the trend and these include tallboys, MPVs and in some cases even sedans. They're able to provide good space and practicality while being affordable and act as a boon for tall drivers. Lets take a look at some of such cars.

 

Kia Syros

KIA Syros EV 47

The Kia Syros has got the opinion divided when it comes to looks and design but the verdict is unanimous when it comes to cabin space. It may be a subcompact SUV but its tall design and intelligent use of space offers of a lot practicality to tall drivers. Sitting on the front row, the occupants get a headroom and legroom both in excess of 1,000 mm which means their height becomes irrelevant. Shorter drivers can of course increase the seat height to find the desired position behind the wheel. The Syros is much better in terms of internal dimensions than even the original tallboy - Maruti Suzuki Wagon R and is one the best cars out there to drive if your height is over 6 feet.

Nissan Gravite

Nissan Gravite 41 jpg

The sub 4 meter Gravite MPV from Nissan is surprisingly good when it comes to cabin space despite its compact dimensions. The seats on the first row are both big and comfortable which helps the driver during long journeys. While the headroom is quite generous sliding seats on the second row ensure that tall drivers get ample leg room as well. Nissan has been able to make things comfortable for all occupants in this 7-seat car something that is not really expected from a car that is under 4 meters long. The driver also gets a good view of the road ahead which means the drive is comfortable and confident at the same time.

 

Maruti Suzuki Ertiga

Maruti Suzuki Ertiga CNG

Another MPV which has been the bestseller for years and scores really well when it comes to practicality is the Maruti Suzuki Ertiga. It has been the first choice of big families who are looking for a budget car as it fulfils almost all requirements. This includes generous headroom and legroom for the driver which ensures that long cross country drives are not tiring and distances can covered without taking a lot of breaks. At 1,070 mm the headroom is quite generous while at 850 mm the driver seat legroom is also quite acceptable in a car which has 3 rows of seats along with decent luggage space.

MG Comet

MG Comet 3

It may be small car on the outside but its still difficult to beat the MG Comet when it comes to generous legroom and headroom in the first row when talking about cars priced under Rs. 15 lakh. The quirky EV is feature rich has always been aggressively priced making it an attractive choice for the budget buyer. The brand also loads the lower variants with good number of features while practicality remains on its USPs. Tall drivers particularly like spending time in the Comet which offers decently sized front seats and good driving position. The boxy shape and 1,640 mm height of this mini-car are attributes that ensure that it offers cabin space that much bigger cars are not able to provide. 
 

Skoda Slavia

2026 Skoda Slavia m13

With a height of 1507 mm and ground clearance of 179 the Skoda Slavia is not your usual sedan. It is also more than 4 meter long and these numbers mean that cabin is quite spacious in this compact sedan. The 6 foot tall owner will easily take to the driver seat of the seat and be more than content with both the legroom and headroom here. The range of height adjustable driver seat is long and this ensures that one can always find the perfect driving position in this sedan. Compared to some of its rivals, the Slavia offers better practicality and if looking for a sedan it ticks more boxes specially if you're looking for generous space all around the cabin.
