Royal Enfield Meteor 350 Facelift Spotted At Dealer Yard - Slipper Clutch, Updated Lighting & More

The upcoming 2025 Royal Enfield Meteor 350 has been spotted at dealership stockyards. The spy images shared by Rushlane reveal key changes over the outgoing version, pointing towards updated styling, new features, and refinements aimed at refreshing Royal Enfield's popular 350cc cruiser offering.

The Meteor 350, originally launched in 2020 as a successor to the Thunderbird, quickly became one of Royal Enfield's most important global products. Built on the J-platform with a 349cc single-cylinder engine, the motorcycle offered long-distance comfort, modern features, and the brand's signature retro-inspired styling.

For 2025, the Meteor 350 gets subtle styling updates, including a redesigned headlamp unit with integrated LED daytime running lights. The indicators also appear reworked, providing a sharper finish. Paint options are expected to expand, with new dual-tone schemes complementing existing monotone and custom-inspired colourways.

In addition to cosmetic enhancements, the Meteor 350 will gain updated switchgear. The rotary-style buttons seen on newer Royal Enfield models are expected to be offered with the updated 2025 Meteor 350. The instrument cluster may also receive refinements, though the Tripper navigation pod is likely to continue unchanged in standard and variant-specific trims and a new USB-C charging point is also present.

The Metero 350's frame, suspension setup, and braking hardware appear unchanged from the current Meteor 350. That means telescopic front forks, twin rear shock absorbers, and disc brakes at both ends with dual-channel ABS. Tyre profiles and alloy wheel designs are also expected to be retained from the outgoing model.

The proven 349cc single-cylinder air-oil cooled engine will continue to power the Meteor 350. Output figures remain at 20.2bhp and 27Nm of torque, paired with a five-speed gearbox which will be offered with a slipper clutch, the biggest mechanical change for this mostly cosmetic update.

Royal Enfield currently retails the Meteor 350 in three main trims - Fireball, Stellar, and Supernova - each offering unique colour palettes and finishes. The upcoming version is expected to maintain this structure, with minor updates to enhance differentiation among the variants for prospective buyers.

Pricing for the Meteor 350 is expected to see a marginal increase over the outgoing model, which currently ranges between ₹2.06 lakh and ₹2.32 lakh (ex-showroom, India), depending on the chosen variant, though this will change once the GST 2.0 cuts come into play.
