In today’s fast-moving motorcycle world, Indian proves that progress can come from honouring the past.
The 2025 Challenger Elite and Pursuit Elite reflect that philosophy with bold, limited-edition designs.
These bikes blend race-ready performance, top-tier touring features, and rich, heritage-inspired styling.
Indian celebrates its roots while delivering modern engineering and exclusive craftsmanship.

These aren’t your average baggers. They’re rare machines. Only 350 Challenger Elites and 250 Pursuit Elites will be available. And they arrive dressed to impress, painted by hand and loaded with exclusive features that elevate them far above the standard factory lineup.

Challenger Elite: A Salute to Speed

The Challenger Elite pays homage to Gene “Alabama Flash” Walker, who once set land-speed records aboard an Indian PowerPlus in 1920. His spirit is stitched into the tri-tone paint scheme, which takes over 24 hours to apply. Details like an individually numbered centre console featuring Walker’s bike, premium Dark Horse finishes, and custom engine covers all underscore this model’s historic ties.

But don’t let the vintage inspiration fool you — this bike is every bit a modern powerhouse. Under the tank lies the PowerPlus 112 engine, a liquid-cooled V-Twin that roars with 126 horsepower and 133 lb-ft of torque, proven in the King of the Baggers race series. It’s fast, loud, and unapologetically confident.

Pursuit Elite: Military Roots, Touring Soul

The Pursuit Elite reaches further back, honouring Indian’s WWI role supplying motorcycles to the U.S. Army. That military heritage shows in the detailed paint, featuring hand-painted gold accents and subtle Indian logo patterns. This level of finish feels custom-built, not something you’d expect from a large-scale manufacturer. It’s packed with luxury touring features like heated seats, adaptive LED headlights, and an adjustable windscreen.

The 600-watt PowerBand audio system delivers clear, powerful sound for long-distance rides.
Like the Challenger Elite, it includes a numbered console marking its limited-edition status.
It also features advanced electronics like lean-sensitive traction control and drag torque control.
The electronically adjustable rear suspension helps tailor comfort and handling to any road.

Built for the Few

With price tags of $39,999 (approx. RM190,000) for the Challenger Elite and $49,999 (approx. RM237,500) for the Pursuit Elite, these machines aren’t just about showing off — they’re about owning a piece of Indian Motorcycle history. They’re exclusive, meticulously finished, and packed with cutting-edge tech, offering a rare balance of heritage and high performance.

Whether you’re drawn to the Challenger’s race-inspired roots or the Pursuit’s long-distance command, one thing’s clear: Indian’s Elite series is built for riders who want more than just a motorcycle. They want meaning, legacy, and a bike that stands out wherever the road leads.
