The Indian Chief Dark Horse is a stripped-down, minimalist cruiser. It gets drag handlebars, 19-inch cast wheels and a solo bobber seat. The Bobber Dark Horse, on the other hand, comes with a mini-ape handlebar, 16-inch wire-spoke wheels and fork and shock covers. Lastly, the Super Chief Limited is the touring-oriented motorcycle that gets fitments like a quick-release windscreen, leather saddlebags, touring seat with a large passenger pad, floorboards and traditional cruiser-style handlebars.
All three models are based on the same new platform which uses the classic steel-tube frame, but they will offer slightly different flavours on the classic American v-twin, with each positioned to cater to the tastes of a different rider. Though based on the same basic engine and frame, all three bikes have slightly different ergonomics. The new 2022 Indian Chief line-up will employ a BS6 compliant version of the Indian Thunder Stroke 116 V-twin engine that displaces 1,890 cc. The engine is tuned to make 162 Nm of peak torque.

Some of the common features which are offered on all three bikes include a touch-enabled instrument console with smartphone connectivity, keyless ignition, full LED lighting, 15-litre fuel tank, bobbed rear fender, dual outboard preload-adjustable rear shocks, dual exhaust, and more. The Indian Chief line-up will also get standard cruise control, and three riding modes - Sport, Standard, and Tour.
