The Royal Enfield Meteor 350 goes on sale in India. Most of the information about the new Meteor 350 was already known thanks to the leaked brochure and several images. One of the most interesting features of the Thunderbird successor is the Tripper Navigation Display Unit, which is placed next to the main semi-digital instrument cluster.
Riders can connect their smartphones to this system via Bluetooth and benefit from the turn-by-turn navigation details. Some of the other key features of the new Meteor 350 include a USB charging port, LED ring around the headlamp, relaxed riding position, comfortable seat, alloy wheels, retro-styled turns signals, and more.
Royal Enfield has slapped on a 349cc
single-cylinder engine in the new Meteor. It is a brand-new long-stroke motor
which complies with the latest BS6 emission regulations and comes equipped with
fuel injection. It is built to provide impressive low and mid-range and keep
the vibrations as minimal as possible. It is tuned to produce a maximum power
of 20.2 bhp and 27 Nm of peak torque. Mated to the powerplant is a new 5-speed
gearbox.
The Chennai-based company has launched the
new Meteor 350 in three variants - Fireball, Stellar, and Supernova. The new Royal Enfield
Meteor 350 price starts at INR 1.75 lakh (ex-showroom). The bookings are open
from today and so are the test rides.
