2025 Royal Enfield Hunter 350 vs rivals: Price Comparison
Royal Enfield recently updated its most accessible offering, the Hunter 350, with a host of changes for the new model year. The 2025 Royal Enfield Hunter 350 starts from ₹1.50 lakh (ex-showroom) and gets new colours, more features, and a much-needed updated rear suspension. The bike is one of the top sellers for the company, and the latest updates are only expected to increase its popularity even further. But what else does the 2025 Royal Enfield Hunter 350 compete against? Let's take a look.
The closest rival to the Hunter 350, the TVS Ronin, also received a comprehensive update earlier this year. The bike received two new colours, dual-channel ABS on the mid-spec variant, and visual tweaks including blacked-out headlamp surrounds, revised seat, and a slimmer rear mudguard. The bike continues to draw power from the 225 cc oil-cooled motor tuned for 20.1 bhp and 19.93 Nm, paired with a 6-speed gearbox. The Ronin is priced from ₹1.35 lakh, going up to ₹1.73 lakh (ex-showroom).

The sportier iteration based on the CB350 platform, the Honda CB350RS gets chopped mudguards, ribbed seat, an LED headlamp, and brighter colours that add to its youthful appeal. It draws power from the same 348 cc single-cylinder motor tuned for 20.7 bhp and 30 Nm of peak torque, making it slightly more powerful than the Hunter 350. Much like the Hunter, the CB350RS is also targeted at younger buyers but the Honda neo-retro commands a premium pricing starting at ₹2.16 lakh, going up to ₹2.19 lakh (ex-showroom). Rumour has it that Honda is developing a RE Hunter rival based on the CB350, but the model is still some time away from launch.
Bringing the neo-retro looks with modern performance, the Triumph Speed T4 promises the best of both at a highly attractive price. It packs the familiar 399 cc single-cylinder, liquid-cooled motor tuned for more torque, producing 30.6 bhp and 36 Nm. The Speed T4 benefits from a promising chassis, bassy exhaust note and a recent price correction. This means the Triumph Speed T4 is now priced at ₹1.99 lakh (ex-showroom), bringing it closer to the Royal Enfield Hunter 350's territory.

For those looking at a fun retro machine, the Jawa Forty Two fits the bill as much as the Hunter 350 does. The bike stays true to the retro looks, albeit with a modern heart. The 294 cc motor produces 27 bhp and 26 Nm of peak torque, paired with a 6-speed gearbox. The Forty Two balances easy riding with sporty handling, bringing some fun to the modern-classic space. The Jawa 42 is priced from ₹1.75 lakh, going up to ₹2.01 lakh (ex-showroom), bringing it in the same space as the Hunter 350.

But it seems like the enthusiasts out there want more from the motorcycle and are expanding its territories with modifications. One of these examples is the SM450 Urban Guerrilla, which has been developed by the joint efforts of Ryan Roadkill and custom house Sticky's Speed Shop. Their work is being showcased at multiple events. The bike, based on the Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450, instantly grabs attention with a striking combination of white, pink, and purple. These colours are even seen on the seat, handlebars, shock absorbers, and alloy wheels. There is also some use of yellow, highlighting the "450" on the side of the bike. With this, the modifications have completely changed the appearance of the bike to make it look like a supermoto with a high-beak square, headlight, and more.

Royal Enfield CEO Tests Upcoming Himalayan 750 And Himalayan EV; Pics
Royal Enfield has been working on expanding its motorcycle lineup with the addition of new products. It's no secret, two new models on the list are the Himalayan 750 and the Himalayan Electric (also known as the HIM-E). Until now, both of these motorcycles have only been seen in the spy shots. Now, Royal Enfield has officially teased these motorcycles while revealing the ongoing tests in the Himalayan range. It is to be noted that these units seem to be very close to their production form, and are being tested by top bosses at RE, including CEO B. Govindarajan. Based on the pictures, it seems like the Royal Enfield team is leaving no stones unturned, putting the motorcycles through the tough off-road test at the Khardung La Pass in Ladakh. While the manufacturer shared the pictures of both motorcycles on social media, they still did not reveal official names or any details of the products. Furthermore, most of the design details of both units have also been kept under the veil as the units were covered in camouflage. The bigger Royal Enfield Himalayan 750 will likely have a 750 cc engine, which is expected to put out around 50-55 hp of power, while the torque rating will also see a bump. Meanwhile, the design language will be very similar to the 450 cc version with changes in the dimensions and a few details. It is also expected to have a better suspension setup with more travel. They are also likely to offer adjustability. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Royal Enfield (@royalenfield) Meanwhile, the Royal Enfield Himalayan Electric (HIM-E) is likely to be much closer to its 450 cc ICE cousin. Although the design will have its differences because of the change in the powertrain. Furthermore, we can expect it to be a bit more sophisticated in terms of features. All of this will likely result in a bigger number on the price tag.
