2025 Triumph Thruxton 400: Spotted Ahead of Launch

Triumph Motorcycles is expanding its 400cc lineup with the upcoming Thruxton 400. This marks another addition to Triumph’s aggressively growing portfolio in the middleweight segment. The Thruxton 400 has been spied in a production-ready state near Pune, indicating an imminent launch in early 2025.

Triumph’s Growing 400cc Platform

Currently, Triumph’s 400cc range includes the Speed T4, Speed 400, and Scrambler 400X, all of which have garnered monthly sales in the range of 3,000 to 4,000 units. With plans to launch new models like the Scrambler T and Thruxton 400 in 2025, Triumph aims to further solidify its position in the middleweight motorcycle segment. The Thruxton 400’s distinct styling and features make it a strong contender to attract a new customer base.

Signature Features of the Thruxton 400

The Thruxton 400 inherits design cues from both its 400cc siblings and the larger Thruxton 1200 cafe racer. Key highlights include:

  • Half Fairing: A defining feature that adds to the bike’s dynamic street presence.
  • LED Lighting: Round LED headlight and repositioned turn indicators for a modern aesthetic.
  • Clip-On Handlebars: For a sportier riding stance.
  • Bar-End Mirrors and Windscreen: Enhancing its cafe racer look.
  • Sculpted Fuel Tank and Single-Piece Seat: Paired with a cowl and upswept exhaust, these elements contribute to a sleek, streamlined profile.
  • Instrumentation: The analogue speedometer integrated with a multi-function LCD screen, borrowed from the Speed 400.

The almost centrally mounted foot pegs ensure that while the bike offers a focused riding stance, it remains comfortable for longer rides.

Thruxton 400: Platform and Mechanics

The Thruxton 400 will share its tubular steel frame and bolt-on rear subframe with the Speed 400. Other mechanical components include:

  • Suspension: 43mm USD forks in black (distinct from the Speed 400’s golden forks) and a gas monoshock RSU at the rear.
  • Wheels and Tyres: 17-inch wheels fitted with Pirelli Rosso tyres for the international market, while Indian models will likely feature MRF or Apollo tyres.
  • Brakes: A 300 mm disc at the front and a 230 mm disc at the rear, equipped with dual-channel ABS as standard.

It remains to be seen if the suspension travel will be adjusted to suit the Thruxton 400’s unique profile.

Pricing and Availability

Triumph’s single-cylinder bikes have been strategically priced to appeal to a broader audience, and the Thruxton 400 is expected to follow suit. While the Speed T starts at Rs 1.99 lakh (post-discount) and the Scrambler 400X retails at Rs 2.65 lakh (ex-showroom), the Thruxton 400’s premium styling and features might command a slightly higher price.
