Royal Enfield has refreshed its best-selling roadster, the Hunter 350, with a sleek new Graphite Grey paint option for 2025. Finished in matte, a first for the Hunter lineup, this shade is exclusive to the base Retro variant (Financial Express).
The ex-showroom Delhi price remains unchanged at ₹1.77 lakh, making it the most affordable entry into Royal Enfield’s modern roadster range (NDTV).

- 17-inch wire-spoke wheels
- Drum brake at the rear and disc brake at the front

- Halogen headlamp, round tail-light, and a compact analogue speedometer with a small digital display
The higher-priced Metro variants continue with alloy wheels, dual-channel ABS, wider tyres, and additional colour options.

Bookings & Availability

Hunter 350’s Place in the Market
Since its launch in 2022, the Hunter 350 has consistently ranked among the top-selling Royal Enfield models. Its compact dimensions, neutral ergonomics, and competitive price point have made it especially popular among younger riders and those upgrading from smaller commuter motorcycles.
By introducing the matte Graphite Grey in 2025, Royal Enfield is keeping the model visually fresh without altering its proven mechanicals. This approach could help sustain sales momentum in an increasingly competitive 350cc segment.
