Royal Enfield Classic 350 posted 32,575 units in April 2022 as against 23,298 units during the same period in 2021 with a YoY growth of 39.8 per cent

In the month of April 2022, Royal Enfield’s Classic 350 posted a cumulative domestic tally of 32,575 units as against 23,298 units during the same period in 2021 with a YoY positive sales growth of close to 40 per cent. The retro-styled motorcycle also finished as the tenth most sold two-wheeler in the country last month in the Indian market.

The second-generation Classic 350 was introduced last year with a whole host of changes as it is based on a new double-cradle frame while the fit and finish have also been dramatically improved. It derives power from a revised J series engine as the 349 cc single-cylinder OHC motor kicks out just above 20 hp and 27 Nm of peak torque.

It is paired with a five-speed transmission. The Meteor 350 received the same formula in late 2020 and is the spiritual successor of the Thunderbird 350 cruiser. It finished in the third position with 4,617 unit sales last month as against 7,844 units during the corresponding period in 2021 with a YoY negative volume growth of 41.1 per cent.
