Royal Enfield Launches 2025 Hunter 350
Royal Enfield has strengthened its position in the urban mid-size motorcycle segment with the launch of the updated 2025 Hunter 350. The refreshed model introduces new colour options, mechanical upgrades, and improved rider-focused features aimed at enhancing everyday usability and riding comfort. The 2025 Hunter 350 is now available in three new colourways: Rio White, Tokyo Black, and London Red. Alongside the visual updates, Royal Enfiled has introduced a series of significant improvements aimed at refining the motorcycle's overall performance and ergonomics. Key changes include increased ground clearance and a retuned rear suspension, both designed to enhance ride quality and cornering agility in urban environments and on winding roads. Complementing these changes is an intuitive ergonomic triangle that better synchronises with rider movement, offering improved comfort and control. The Hunter's compact, muscular design remains largely intact, emphasizing a short wheelbase, which continues to make it one of the most nimble motorcycles in Royal Enfield's lineup. The updated Hunter 350 is touted to offer sharp handling for city traffic, tight turns, and spirited short trips. Performance is delivered by the proven 349cc J-series engine, producing 20.2 bhp at 6100 rpm and 27 Nm of peak torque at 4000 rpm. The engine's torquey nature suits urban riding, allowing for easy acceleration and flexibility across different speeds. The 2025 model also becomes the first Royal Enfield 350cc motorcycle to feature a slip-and-assist clutch, enabling smoother gear shifts and reducing clutch effort, particularly useful in stop-and-go traffic. Other premium updates include an LED headlamp for improved visibility, the Tripper navigation pod for turn-by-turn directions, and a Type-C USB fast charger to keep devices powered on the go. While the Hunter 350 has proven capable of handling long-distance trips, its character remains best suited for short rides and daily urban commutes. With its lively handling and compact form, it offers a fun-to-ride experience that feels refreshingly un-Enfield-like. However, there remains room for refinement to fully match the expectations of riders familiar with Royal Enfield's evolving product range. The pricing remains competitive for the segment, and hopefully with the new upgrades, the Royal Enfield Hunter will find more takers. The 2025 Royal Enfield Hunter 350 is available in three variants, priced as follows (ex-showroom Chennai): Base (Factory Black) – ₹1,49,900; Mid (Rio White and Dapper Grey) – ₹1,76,750; Top (Tokyo Black, London Red, and Rebel Blue) – ₹1,81,750 Motorscribes, in association with The Hindu, brings you the latest in cars and bikes.
