It’s time to welcome the latest avatar of one of India’s most-loved motoring icons – the new-generation 2022 Royal Enfield Classic 350, which has been launched today at a starting price of Rs 1,84,374 (ex-showroom, Chennai). The new-gen Classic 350 will be available with single- and dual-channel ABS options, with a choice of Halcyon, Chrome, Dark, Signals and Redditch colour schemes.
Being the second model based on Royal Enfield’s J platform, the 2022 Classic 350 is all-new under the skin, even though in pure design and styling terms, it doesn’t stray too far from the outgoing bike. There’s a subtle visual update with fresh styling cues thrown in, and Royal Enfield has also revealed the motorcycle will be available with both wire-spoke wheels as well as alloy wheels, depending on the variant.
The Classic 350 uses an all-new chassis, and carries over the Meteor 350’s 349 cc, single-cylinder air-cooled engine that makes 20.2 hp and 27 Nm of torque. It gets a telescopic fork, adjustable rear shock absorbers, larger disc brakes, single- and dual-channel ABS (depending on the variant) and the company’s new Tripper Bluetooth-enabled navigation system with a full-colour display.
