Royal Enfield Classic 350 is the top-selling motorcycle from the Chennai-based bikemaker in the country. The model witnessed a generation change in late 2021, and now it’s ready to receive a feature upgrade to withstand rivals. The updated 2024 Royal Enfield Classic 350 is slated to go on sale on the coming 12th August. This time around, the bike will come with LED lighting, including headlight, taillight, and turn indicators.
Reports suggest that the lower variants could be offered with a rear drum brake. The new switchgear and updated instrument cluster might also be on the cards. No changes will be made to its engine setup. The new 2024 Royal Enfield Classic 350 will use the existing 349cc, single-cylinder, air-cooled engine paired with a 5-speed gearbox. The motor pushes out a claimed power of 20bhp and 27Nm of torque.
Prices of the new Royal Enfield Classic 350 are likely to be more or less similar to the current model that costs Rs 1.93 lakh for the base variant and Rs 2.25 lakh for the top-end variant. All mentioned prices are ex-showroom, Chennai. Read: Royal Enfield 250cc Bike In the Works
In other updates, Royal Enfield has planned over a dozen new models for the current financial year, including all-new products, facelifts, and new variants. Recently, the company filed a trademark application for the name ‘Classic 650 Twin,’ which will sit between the Interceptor and Super Meteor. We have seen the RE Classic 650 Twin during its test rounds in the country. The spy images reveal that the bike will share its platform with the Shotgun 650.
Powering the upcoming Classic 650 Twin will be the same 648cc, twin-cylinder engine that powers the brand’s other 650cc bikes. The motor is good enough for 47bhp and 52Nm. Some of its design elements could be borrowed from the RE Shotgun 650, such as the LED headlight and dual exhaust pipes.
