Introducing the Royal Enfield Hunter 350 Graphite Grey
The latest addition to the 2025 Hunter 350 range is the stunning Graphite Grey colorway, now available in the mid-spec variant for about ₹1.76 lakh (ex-showroom) in India. The matte grey color and neon yellow accents (paying tribute to the graffiti art on the street), adds an urban feeling to the roadster line-up.
Enhanced Ride Quality & Rider Comfort
- The rear suspension has moved from a traditional linear setup to a progressive set of springs offering a smooth ride quality – even on rough or bumpy roads and the added damping characteristics they offer will only help.
- A 10 mm increase in ground clearance (approx. 150 mm to 160 mm) comes from exhaust rerouting, allowing for better clearance when traversing uneven surfaces and speed bumps.
- The seat now uses denser foam for better comfort, and the handlebar has been redesigned so that the rider triangle is more relaxed for a better ergonomic fit.
Upgraded Tech & Features
- The Hunter 350 is, by far, the first RE 350cc model fitted with a slip-assist clutch that reduces the clutch pull force and promotes smoother experience in city traffic.
- Also, it receives a LED headlamp, increasing visibility at night and modern style – standard on the higher trims.
- The top variants of the Hunter 350 also have the USB Type-C charging port (the base trims still have USB-A), which will please smartphone users.
- The Tripper navigation pod is available standard or optional based on the variant, and it is fun to have an analog feel combined with functional navigation.
Powertrain & Performance
Mechanically, the Hunter 350 remains solidly unchanged—powered by the 349 cc air-cooled J-series engine producing 20.2 bhp and 27 Nm, mated to a 5-speed gearbox.
Pricing & Variants
- Base Variant (Factory Black): ~₹1.50 lakh (unchanged)
- Mid Variant (Rio White, Dapper Grey, Graphite Grey): ~₹1.76–1.77 lakh
- Top Variant (Tokyo Black, London Red, Rebel Blue): ~₹1.81–1.82 lakh
Higher variants saw a modest price increase of ₹6,000–7,000 due to added features.
Why This Update Stands Out
Royal Enfield’s focus on genuine rider input about suspension comfort, ergonomics, and usability illustrates the brand is changing for modern urban motorcyclists. The updated design and feature upgrades will help keep the Hunter 350 relevant in its segment, and it will continue to appeal to both first-time and loyal customers.
