Triumph has officially launched the Thruxton 400 in India on August 6, 2025, introducing a stylish café‑racer at a competitive ex‑showroom price of ₹2.74 lakh.
Based on the Speed 400 and tuned for a sportier taste, it blends retro character with modern engineering. BMW rivals aside, this model claims the title of India’s most affordable café racer yet.
Triumph Thruxton 400 Design & Features
True to its café‑racer heritage, the Thruxton 400 sports a bullet-style semi‑fairing, clip-on handlebars, rear-set footpegs, sculpted fuel tank, and a colour‑coded pillion seat cowl.
Riding posture is more aggressive than its platform sibling, the Speed 400, promising a more engaging riding experience. Offered in multiple shades such as Lava Red Gloss, Pearl Metallic White, Metallic Racing Yellow, and Phantom Black, the bike exudes timeless style.
Under the skin, it retains dual-channel ABS, switchable traction control, torque‑assist clutch, ride‑by‑wire throttle, and a semi‑digital instrument cluster for modern usability.
Thruxton 400 Verdict
At ₹2.74 lakh, the Thruxton 400 stands out as a compelling blend of iconic styling, sporty performance, and value—especially for riders drawn to café‑racer aesthetics without breaking the bank.
Leveraging the proven Speed 400 platform, it offers turnkey reliability with character. With competitors like the Royal Enfield Continental GT650 priced much higher, Triumph’s offering delivers café‑racer flair that’s accessible and exciting.
For enthusiasts seeking a classic‑looking, fun‑to‑ride motorcycle with modern amenities, the Thruxton 400 is hard to ignore.
