Price, service, resale and roads — here

  • The 440cc engine falls into a higher tax bracket in Nepal, reflecting its premium positioning over the old 411
  • Royal Enfield's extensive service network across Nepal ensures parts are easier to find than other premium brands
  • High resale value is expected due to the strong brand loyalty for Royal Enfield in the Nepali market
  • Fuel efficiency is a concern for daily commuters given the rising petrol prices in Nepal
  • The Royal Enfield Scram 440 is on sale in Nepal at an ex-showroom price of Rs 6.90–7.39 lakh across six variants.
  • Nepali riders commonly compare the Scram 440 with the Himalayan 450, Triumph Scrambler 400 X, KTM 250 Adventure and Royal Enfield Meteor because of its price, weight and touring role.
  • The official Nepal specification lists 200 mm ground clearance, 187 kg dry weight, 15-litre fuel capacity and dual-purpose 19/17-inch wheels, which suit Nepal’s mixed city, highway and broken-road use.
  • The main Nepal ownership questions concern annual tax, service-centre quality, spare-parts access, fuel cost and resale rather than only engine performance.
