Royal Enfield has introduced a new ‘Base Premium’ variant of the bike while adding two new colours to the top grade in the Indian market
The 2026 Royal Enfield Hunter 350 has been launched at a starting price of Rs 1.50 lakh (ex-showroom, Chennai) in the Indian market. The brand has introduced a new entry-level variant of the bike in the form of ‘Base Premium’ with a Tarmac Black paint shade. In addition, the top variant gets two new colour schemes namely Mumbai Yellow and Moonshot White. The 2026 Hunter 350 bookings and test rides will start from today across authorised Royal Enfield dealerships. The updated model was presented at the HunterHood festival in Lucknow.

The Base Premium trim rides on alloy wheels which replace the spoked rims while also flaunting an updated round halogen headlamp. It also gets the semi-digital instrument cluster with the rotary switchgear to operate various functions. Further, the 2026 Hunter 350 Base Premium comes equipped with stitched seat, sporty grab rail, single-channel ABS and slip & assist clutch as standard.
Sitting on the same twin downtube spine frame, the 2026 Royal Enfield Hunter 350 rides on 17-inch wheels which are shod with section 110/70 front and 140/70 rear tubeless tyres. The suspension duties are performed by 41mm telescopic front forks and dual-shock rear absorbers with 6-step adjustable preload. The stopping power comes from a 300mm front disc and 270mm rear disc units.
Commenting on the update, Yadvinder Singh Guleria, Chief Commercial Officer, Royal Enfield, said: “The Hunter 350 continues to resonate strongly with a new generation of riders who value simplicity, usability and a strong sense of identity in what they ride. With the introduction of the Base Premium variant, we are strengthening the Hunter’s proposition by offering meaningful upgrades that enhance the everyday riding experience while keeping the platform accessible to a wider set of riders. This allows the Hunter to continue expanding its footprint not just in urban centres, but increasingly across smaller towns and rural markets as well.”
2026 Royal Enfield Hunter 350 Top
The top variant is offered in two new colourways in the form of Mumbai Yellow and Moonshot White at an uniform price point of Rs 1.70 lakh (ex-showroom, Chennai). While the Mumbai Yellow represents the layered energy of the city such as Bollywood, art and constant motion, the Moonshot White takes a more narrative-led approach as it is inspired by Orion—the archetypal hunter.
At the heart, the 2026 Hunter 350 houses the same 349cc single-cylinder air/oil-cooled engine which generates top power of 20.2 bhp at 6100 rpm and highest torque of 27 Nm at 4000 rpm. The engine is linked to a 5-speed gearbox and a slip-assist clutch. The Hunter 350 is Royal Enfield’s most affordable 350cc model in the Indian market as the other bikes such as the Classic 350, Bullet 350 and Meteor 350 are a bit expensive.
