RE Himalayan adventure tourer was well received. Sales surged 35 percent to 1,304 units, up from 965 units sold in March 2019. Sales of the 500 cc models such as the Thunderbird, Classic and Bullet have seen a notable decrease in number due to the fact that they are discontinued. Royal Enfield has finished sales of their BS4 stocks and neither of these models has been upgraded to BS6 compliance. However, the new generation models are set for launch later this year and will comes in with new engines.

The company has cleared out stocks of BS4 motorcycles at all its company dealerships and is hence forth only offering BS6 models. Production is also at a standstill in view of the nationwide lockdown and all company dealerships have also been asked to shut shop and to follow local administration orders.
