The new ADV crossover’s seating setup remains largely similar to Himalayan and comes with similar a stepped-up single-piece seat, fuel tank design, wide handlebar and exhaust canister.

The new ADV Scram sports 411cc air-cooled single-cylinder motor, same as in Himalayan, that produces 24.3hp at 6,500rpm and 32Nm at 4,250rpm. The motor is paired to a 5-speed gearbox.
