There was a brief moment when Hunter 350 was revered as the next big thing in Royal Enfield’s 350cc portfolio. With only 796 units short of glory, Hunter 350 was brooding in Classic 350’s neck. Just a month later, Hunter’s hunting ability is short-lived and Classic takes the lead with a massive 10,453 units lead in September 2022.
Despite being identical mechanically, and Hunter’s lower price point, Classic 350 managed to sell 27,571 units and doubled its domestic sales YoY with a volume gain of 13,820 units. With 18,993 units sold a month before, MoM gain is 45.16% and volume gain is 8,578 units. Classic accounts for 37.44% of Royal Enfield’s domestic sales.
