In short
The Zontes 350X is a currently sold 348cc liquid-cooled naked with 38.2bhp and a claimed 35kmpl, priced from ₹2,37,040, positioning it as the most fuel-efficient of Zontes' 350cc trio alongside the 350R and 350T. It suits riders wanting sports-bike-adjacent performance with better everyday economy, though it still trails established rivals like the KTM 250 Duke on outright efficiency.
What works
- Claimed 35kmpl, best among Zontes' own 348cc lineup
- 38.2bhp and 150kmph top speed for strong performance
- Dual-channel ABS, TFT display and navigation standard
- Priced below several 250-350cc rivals with similar specs
What doesn't
- 185kg kerb weight is still heavier than key rivals like the KTM 250 Duke
- Zontes' Indian dealer network is newer and smaller than established brands
- No traction control, unlike some pricier rivals in the segment

Mileage
350X's claimed mileage is 35 kmpl, and unusually, owners and our own riding land right on it: expect 33–36 kmpl in everyday use. Few bikes get this close to their brochure figure.
Engine and ride
Power comes from a 348cc single producing 38.2 bhp and 32.8 Nm, paired with a 6 Speed. At 185 kg the power-to-weight figure is 206 bhp per tonne, which ranks 83 of 146 in its class here.
The torque and power figures are well balanced, so it neither needs to be revved hard nor feels lazy when you do.
Chassis hardware includes a rear monoshock and dual-channel ABS, with a disc, 320 mm, 2 piston caliper up front and disc, 265 mm, 1 piston caliper at the rear.
At 795 mm the seat is average for the class; most riders from 5'5" up will be comfortable at stops.
Our review
Riding impressions and the buying advice a spec sheet cannot give.
Verdict
The 350X positions itself as the value pick within Zontes' own 348cc lineup, trading some of the 350R's extra styling flourishes for a lower price and the best claimed mileage of the trio at 35kmpl. It still gets dual-channel ABS, a TFT display and navigation, making it a well-equipped naked bike for the money.
Riding it every day
With 38.2bhp and a 150kmph top speed, the 350X has enough performance for confident highway overtaking and enjoyable riding on twisty roads. At 185kg it sits between the lighter 350R and the heavier 350T, manageable in traffic though still requiring more effort than a lighter 250cc rival at parking speeds. Claimed mileage of 35kmpl, with real-world figures likely in the 33-36kmpl range, makes it the more economical choice if you're deciding between Zontes' own models. The TFT display and navigation remain genuinely useful extras rarely found this low in the price bracket.
What to know before buying
As with other Zontes models, the Indian dealer and service network is still growing, so check availability near you before buying. The brand is newer to India than rivals like KTM or TVS, meaning less long-term reliability data exists, which is worth weighing against the strong spec-for-money proposition.
Who should buy it
This suits a rider who wants strong features and performance for the price and has already confirmed a nearby Zontes service centre. Riders who want the absolute lightest naked bike in this class, or who prioritise an established brand's resale value, may prefer a rival like the KTM 250 Duke.

On safety kit the 350X has dual-channel abs, front disc brake, rear disc brake, tubeless tyres, side-stand engine cut-off and hazard lamps. Dual-channel ABS is the one item on this list worth paying for if it is variant-dependent.
Equipment is closely matched with Karizma XMR, 350T or 350R; the differences are in the riding, not the spec sheet.
It is offered in 3 colours: Silver Black, Green Black and Silver Orange. Colour availability varies by variant and dealer stock.
Warranty, service and ownership
Standard warranty is 2 years, unlimited km.
Service reach is the weak point: Zontes has about 20 dealer and workshop touchpoints across the country. Confirm there is one within reach before you sign.
On sale since 2022, the 350X is established enough that early production issues have been worked through and used examples give a fair read on resale.

- What is the on-road price of the 350X in Delhi?
- About ₹2.7 Lakh for the base variant in Delhi: ₹2,37,000 ex-showroom plus ₹20,460 in Delhi road tax and registration and ₹12,879 for first-year insurance. Figure from dealer quotes, updated monthly; handling and accessory packs can add more.
- What is the mileage of the 350X?

- How much does the 350X cost to run per month?
- Fuel works out to about ₹2.75 per km in Delhi, so a 30 km daily commute costs roughly ₹2,143 a month before servicing.
- What is the EMI for the 350X?
- With 10% down, a 36-month loan at 9.5% on the base variant comes to about ₹7,520 a month. A shorter tenure raises the EMI but cuts total interest; see the EMI calculator on the price page.
- What is the engine capacity and power of the 350X?
- It uses a 348cc engine producing 38.2 bhp and 32.8 Nm, with a 6 speed.
- Is the 350X suitable for short riders?
- Mostly. Seat height is 795 mm, which suits riders from about 5'5". Shorter riders should sit on one at the showroom.
- 350X or Karizma XMR: which is better?
- The Karizma XMR is ₹50,389 less expensive to start and less efficient at 35 kmpl against 35 kmpl. Pick the 350X for feature-focused naked bike buyers, the Karizma XMR for weekend performance riding. Our side-by-side comparison covers every spec.
- Which bikes are cheaper than the 350X?
- Among the 148 sports bikes we have reviewed, the Pulsar 125 (₹93,507), the MT-15 V2 (₹1.68 Lakh), the Roadster (₹2.02 Lakh) start lower.
- How does the 350X compare to its own siblings, the 350R and 350T?
- The 350X is the most fuel-efficient of the three at a claimed 35kmpl, lighter than the 350T's adventure-tourer build, and priced below the more feature-loaded 350R, making it the value-focused pick within Zontes' own 348cc naked and adventure range.
- Is the 350X a good first big bike?
- It can be, given its accessible 795mm seat height and strong power for the price, but 185kg and 38.2bhp is a meaningful step up from typical 150-200cc first bikes, so new riders should have some prior riding experience before jumping straight to this.
