Royal Enfield is a very popular two-wheeler manufacturer, not just in India but also abroad. The company has recently launched the new Meteor 350 in the Indian market. The Meteor 350 is an all-new motorcycle from the house of this Madras-based Indian two-wheeler manufacturer after a really long time. It gets a brand new engine, new chassis and loads of features. Now, just a few days after the India launch, the company has launched the new 2020 Royal Enfield Meteor 350 in Thailand with prices starting at 150,000 Thai Baht (approximately Rs. 3.67 lakhs). Here are all the details about it.
As already mentioned before, Royal Enfield motorcycles are very popular not just in India but also in some other global markets. Royal Enfield has a very strong market in the South-East Asian countries like Thailand and also in the United Kingdom and Latin American countries. As Thailand is a very important market for the two-wheeler manufacturer, RE will soon start an assembly plant too in the country. Also, the company has just launched the all-new 2020 Royal Enfield Meteor 350 in Thailand. The new RE Meteor 350 will be currently directly exported from India to Thailand and so there are no differences between the Thai-spec and the India-spec models.
