The 2025 Chieftain features a number of upgrades and improvements over the previous model, including a new Thunderstroke 116 engine, a redesigned chassis, and a host of new features and technologies.
The 2025 Indian Chieftain is powered by a Thunderstroke 116 engine, which is a 116 cubic inch (1,890 cc) V-twin engine. This engine produces 126 horsepower and 128 lb-ft of torque, which gives the Chieftain plenty of power for cruising and touring. The engine is mated to a six-speed transmission, which provides smooth and precise shifting.
