Is this the spiritual successor to the Royal Enfield Taurus?
A cult favourite in its own right, the Taurus was a diesel powered motorcycle that Royal Enfield introduced in the early 2000s but produced very little of. The Altius Scimitar 670 Diesel is now on the scene, and some bike fans are making a comparison. Both are tough diesel powered machines, meant for Indian conditions. Is the Scimitar really continuing the Taurus's legacy though? Now let us consider technological advancements, design philosophy and target market of both the bikes. Has the Scimitar solved the Taurus’s problems? Will it share the same problems that caused the Taurus's demise? Most importantly, will the Scimitar be able to win over diesel bike enthusiasts in the same way the Taurus did?
The Taurus was in a league of its own, no way. It's that thumping diesel sound, and that sheer novelty, that can't be replicated. The Scimitar is cool, but it's not a proper successor.
