Royal Enfield has announced that its new Meteor 350 will be available in Europe from early 2021 onwards. All three trims of the bike -- Fireball, Stellar and Supernova -- will be sold abroad. The UK prices for the new cruiser have been announced and needless to say, they are nearly double the amount of the ex-showroom Delhi prices, export costs and taxes playing their part. Here are the prices:

There hasn't exactly been a meteoric growth in the sales charts for Royal Enfield with the new Meteor in India but the cruiser has definitely made a good impression. The new 349cc single-cylinder thumper is a lot more refined and energetic than its old UCE counterpart. In our test runs, the Meteor was significantly quicker than the Classic 350 BS6 we tested a while ago. It was able to sustain speeds of around 100kmph without breaking a sweat.
The Meteor 350 meets the A2 licensing power requirements for novice riders. It is likely that the Classic 500, currently sold in the UK and other parts of Europe, will be discontinued from 2021 onwards as it will not meet the EU5 norms. The Meteor 350 then will be the new entry point into the Royal Enfield portfolio, with just the Himalayan, Interceptor 650 and Continental GT 650 sitting above it.
Royal Enfield Meteor 350 (2020-2025) User Reviews
In term of riding the bike really good I've had many great riding experiences with it. The performance is excellent and fuel tank capacity is also good. So there's no worry on long rides. The service network is available in many places so that's not a concern either. Maintenance costs are also quite reasonable. Read More
Among all two-wheelers, the Royal Enfield Meteor offers the most comfortable ride, and its maintenance cost is also the lowest. It's a 350cc bike, yet it still delivers a mileage of 30–35 km/l on the road. For those who are passionate about two-wheeler riding, the best bike is the Royal Enfield Meteor.Read More

Dream bike for a middle class family, I purchased it in june 2021 with all my savings while working. It cost me 2.40 lacs in cash as I have ordered Glossy black which is non standard colour so I have to pay extra for it. Talking about my 4.5 years of experience with this bike so the max i go with it is 800 km (up+down) to Mussoorie UK. I like it.Read More
