Indian Motorcycle is turning up the heat with the reveal of two ultra-exclusive cruisers for 2025 – the Challenger Elite and Pursuit Elite. These limited-run machines will be available in just 350 units of the Challenger Elite and 250 units of the Pursuit Elite across the globe.
Underneath their bold styling, both bikes pack a serious punch with Indian’s PowerPlus 112 engine – a liquid-cooled V-twin that cranks out 126 horsepower and 181.4 Nm of torque. Originally designed for Indian’s King of the Baggers race team, this motor helped secure championship titles in 2022 and 2024, proving it’s not just about looks.
Staying true to their performance roots, both Elites come equipped with top-tier components like inverted front forks, dual Brembo brake calipers, and five-spoke machined front wheels – all aimed at delivering a smooth yet aggressive ride.
On the tech front, these bikes are loaded with rider aids and luxury features. You’ll get hill hold control, electronic combined braking, blind spot monitoring, tailgate warning, and even collision alerts. They also come with three selectable ride modes, keyless ignition, cruise control, and USB charging ports.
Front and center is a 7-inch LCD display running Indian’s Ride Command system. This hub lets riders navigate, control music, and handle calls or texts through their smartphone. Sound-wise, it’s a concert on wheels thanks to PowerBand Audio – the Challenger boasts four 100-watt speakers, while the Pursuit flexes with six, all fine-tuned by a nine-channel EQ that adapts to wind, road, and engine noise in real-time.
Rounding it all out is the electronically adjustable rear suspension preload, which can be fine-tuned directly from the touchscreen for that perfect ride, whether you’re solo or packed for a road trip.
