Speaking about the performance for the month of March 2025, B Govindarajan, Managing Director, Eicher Motors, and Chief Executive Officer, Royal Enfield said: “This year has been nothing short of extraordinary for Royal Enfield. Crossing the 1 million annual sales milestone, our highest ever, is a testament to how far we’ve come. From a time when 50,000 motorcycles a year felt like a big win to now setting new global benchmarks in the mid-size segment, our journey has been incredible. The overwhelming response to the Bullet Battalion Black and the new Classic 350, along with our ability to quickly adapt to rider feedback with new variants, made this our best year yet.
On the global front, we’re expanding like never before. The launch of our Thailand Assembly Plant and entry into Bangladesh mark important steps in strengthening our international presence. Our new launches this year, including four game-changing motorcycles and our first step into electric mobility with the Flying Flea, have pushed the boundaries of what’s possible. Adding to this momentum, Royal Enfield was ranked highest in initial quality in the J.D. Power 2025 India Two-Wheeler Initial Quality Study, reaffirming our commitment to world-class craftsmanship. And as we enter our 125th year, this is just the beginning. The road ahead is filled with new opportunities, and we’re more excited than ever to keep shaping the future of motorcycling.”’
In the Asia Pacific region, Royal Enfield recorded a 13% year-on-year growth. The brand is now amongst the top mid-size motorcycle brands in key markets such as Thailand, Australia, Japan, Malaysia and New Zealand.

We have forged on a growth path with sharp focus on wants and needs of the customers while ensuring that our motorcycles become a true ally for riders. Today, we are super proud to see exponential growth globally and 13% growth in the Asia Pacific region.
This is a true testament to our consistent efforts and strategic growth plans in key markets. We have always wanted to not just lead but also grow the mid-size motorcycle segment globally. This
