Royal Enfield reported a 14% year-on-year growth in motorcycle sales in January 2026, selling 1,04,322 units, and crossed the milestone of one million units in cumulative dispatches in FY27 in a record 10 months.

The company had sold 91,132 motorcycles in January 2025. The January performance was led by strong demand for models with engine capacity of up to 350cc, which grew 18% year-on-year to 92,998 units, compared with 78,815 units in the year-ago period.

Sales of motorcycles up to 350cc increased 28% year-on-year to 8,99,274 units, while volumes in the above-350cc category grew 10% to 1,26,146 units.

The international business, which is included in the overall volumes, also posted steady growth. Exports stood at 10,541 units in January 2026, up 5% from 10,080 units in January 2025. On a year-to-date basis, exports rose 30% to 1,09,731 units, compared with 84,301 units in the same period last year.
