Royal Enfield Classic price, November 2023 sales

All manufacturers have reported a month-on-month decline due to the festive season rush tapering off.

The penultimate month of 2023 has seen a slow-down for all manufacturers after the record-high sales figures of October due to the festive season rush. Here’s how each of the legacy OEMs performed. 

Hero MotoCorp: 4,76,286 units

As expected, Hero continues to lead the way in November too but compared to its October 2023 sales numbers (5,59,766 units), it reported a 14.91 percent decline. However, it has reported an uptick of 25.39 percent when compared to its November 2022 sales figure of 3,79,839 units.
