Royal Enfield's YTD (Year to Date) sales in the fiscal 2021’22 have been recorded at 4,75,431 (including domestic as well as export figures). This performance was almost the same when compared to a year before 2020'22 when the company sold 4,76,633 units.

The company added that its international business grew stronger with the launch of several new products including the Classic 350 which was launched in several international markets such as the Philippines, Korea, Australia, and New Zealand.

Moreover, the 100,000th unit of the all-new Classic 350 also rolled out from the company’s manufacturing facility recently. The brand added that the new Classic ‘continues to receive an overwhelmingly positive response' across markets from experts and the riding communities.
