Benelli Leoncino vs Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 Comparison

The Benelli Leoncino is the scrambler-styled neo-retro model from Benelli, and has no direct rival in the market. The Leoncino uses the same engine as the TRK 502. It pumps out 47 bhp and 46 Nm and offers a more affordable option to the likes of the Ducati Scrambler. In India though, models like the Royal Enfield 650 Twins and the KTM 390 Duke could rival it in the Indian market, in terms of performance and specifications, and at a substantially less price.

Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 is possibly all the bike you ever need till the time you stick to tarmac. It looks good. The quality of fit and finish is commendable and the performance is solid too. The engine is one of the finest we have seen in recent times, on a middleweight motorcycle. Yes! It has a couple of chinks in its armour, but nothing that could be a deal-breaker. It works wonderfully as a daily ride and will be good company on your occasional highway jaunts too.
