Triumph, the renowned British motorcycle manufacturer, has made a bold statement in the Indian mid-size motorcycle segment with the launch of its Scrambler 400X. Priced at an impressive INR 2.62 lakhs (ex-showroom in Delhi), this classic-meets-modern bike is poised to give the competition, including Royal Enfield’s famed Bullet Tagda, a run for its money.
Scrambler 400X: A Blend of Tradition and Innovation
The Scrambler 400X isn’t just a head-turner; it’s a performer too. With its 150mm travel suspension on both ends, 835mm seat height, and 195mm ground clearance, this bike is designed to conquer diverse terrains. Notable features include selectable traction control and a striking 19-inch front wheel with an upward exhaust, enhancing both its capability and aesthetics.
Classic Design Meets Modern Aesthetics
Triumph’s signature design philosophy shines through in the Scrambler 400X. It offers riders a choice of three stylish color schemes adorned with Scrambler tank stripes, drawing inspiration from its larger siblings, the Scrambler 900 and 1200. Classic Triumph design elements, such as the signature Daytime Running Lights (DRLs), add a touch of sophistication.
Heart of a Performer
The Scrambler 400X houses a robust 398cc engine featuring fuel injection and liquid cooling, capable of delivering 40 HP and 37.5 Nm of torque. Coupled with a responsive 6-speed gearbox, this bike packs a punch while maintaining a manageable weight of 179 kilograms. Modern conveniences include a ride-by-wire accelerator, an LCD screen, and USB-C charging for a seamless riding experience.
