Key Insights & Highlights
Guerrilla 450, meanwhile, recorded dispatches of 944 units. Although volumes increased by 36% compared with June 2025, they declined sharply by 43% from May 2026.
650 Twin range recorded dispatches of 2,238 units, down 24% YoY and 38% MoM.

Royal Enfield’s June performance was overwhelmingly driven by its 350cc motorcycles. All four major models in this category posted double-digit annual growth, with the Bullet and Meteor recording particularly strong gains.
While the company crossed the significant milestone of one lakh monthly dispatches, demand remained concentrated within a small number of models. The 450cc and 650cc ranges together contributed less than 5% of total dispatches.
The strong performance of the Classic, Bullet, Hunter and Meteor reinforces Royal Enfield’s leadership in India’s mid-capacity motorcycle segment. However, improving volumes across its newer adventure, roadster and premium twin-cylinder offerings will remain important for broadening its product mix.
