Triumph Speed 400 — Overview

The Triumph Speed 400 is a bike available at a starting price of Rs. 2,32,054 in India. It comes in 1 variant and 4 colours. It is powered by a 349 cc BS6 Phase 2B engine and has a user reported mileage of 28.5 kmpl. With both front and rear disc brakes, the Triumph Speed 400 comes with anti-locking braking system. The Speed 400 bike weighs 179 kg and has a fuel tank capacity of 13 liters. It develops a power output of 36.49 bhp and a torque of 32 Nm.

At Rs 2,34,140 ex-showroom, the Triumph Speed 400 does something no other motorcycle in India has pulled off: it delivers a genuine Triumph - real badge, real DNA, real premium build - without asking you to spend like it's an import. Developed with Bajaj and built in Pune, the Speed 400 runs a 349cc liquid-cooled single making 37 PS and 32 Nm, with USD forks, traction control, and a slipper clutch as standard. The 16,000 km service interval alone puts most rivals to shame. It isn't perfect - the service network is thin and some early units had rust on fasteners - but for the money, nothing in this segment matches the Speed 400's finish, features, and pedigree.

Triumph Speed 400 Latest Updates

View all
  • Triumph India is expected to raise prices on its entire 350cc lineup - including the Speed 400 - by Rs 5,000-10,000 from June 1, 2026. The hike was announced by a Mumbai dealership (Shaman Triumph) on social media but has not been officially confirmed by Triumph Motorcycles India or Bajaj Auto.

  • Triumph India officially launched the 2026 Speed 400 with a 349cc engine on April 6, 2026, priced at Rs 2,31,890 (ex-showroom) - a reduction of Rs 7,110 over the outgoing 398cc model. The bike produces 36.4 bhp and 32 Nm (down 3 bhp and 5.5 Nm), retains identical styling and all four colour options, and continues to carry the 'Speed 400' badge.

  • Units of the 350cc Triumph Speed 400 arrived at dealerships on April 1, 2026 ahead of the official April 6 launch, confirming the identical design, same four colours (Racing Yellow/Pearl Metallic White, Phantom Black/Pewter Grey, Pearl Metallic White/Pewter Grey, Racing Red/Pearl Metallic White), and 'TR Series' engine badging.

What We Like

  • Best-in-class build quality and fit/finish - universally praised as the finest on any made-in-India motorcycle
  • Exceptional 16,000 km service interval keeps annual running costs well below Royal Enfield and KTM
  • Premium spec at the price: 43mm USD forks, traction control, slipper clutch, Bosch dual-channel ABS, all-LED lighting
  • Smooth, refined engine with strong low-to-mid range pull; buzz-free up to 120 kph in top gear

What Could Be Better

  • Thin Triumph dealership and service network means long wait times and occasional spare parts delays
  • Rust on nuts, bolts, and exhaust hardware reported from delivery; some units also show mirror vibration at speed
  • No Bluetooth connectivity and a hard-to-read tachometer are notable omissions at this price

Editor's Verdict

Should You Buy the Triumph Speed 400?

The Triumph Speed 400 is the most complete motorcycle in its price bracket - period. If you want a retro roadster that rides well, looks premium, and costs less to service than a Royal Enfield 350, this is it. Just make sure there's a decent Triumph service centre within reasonable distance of where you live, because the network is still catching up with the demand.

Frequently Asked Questions

QWhat is the ex-showroom price of the Triumph Speed 400?

QWhat is the real-world mileage of the Triumph Speed 400?
The Triumph Speed 400 has an ARAI-certified mileage of 30 kmpl. Real-world owner-reported figures consistently come in at 27-30 kmpl in mixed city and highway riding. With the 13-litre tank, the effective range is around 350-390 km per fill.
QWhat is the service cost and interval for the Triumph Speed 400?
The Triumph Speed 400 has an exceptionally long 16,000 km (or 12-month) service interval - roughly 2-3x longer than Royal Enfield and KTM rivals. Service costs are estimated at Rs 3,000-5,000 per scheduled service. The bike also comes with a 2-year unlimited-mileage warranty.
QWhat is the monthly EMI for the Triumph Speed 400?
On a 90% loan (Rs 2,10,726) over 36 months at approximately 9.5% interest, the monthly EMI for the Triumph Speed 400 works out to roughly Rs 6,800-7,200. A 10% down payment of around Rs 23,414 is typically required. EMI financing is available through Bajaj Finance and most major banks at Triumph dealerships.
QHow does the Triumph Speed 400 compare to the Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450?
The Speed 400 wins on build quality, fuel efficiency (30 kmpl vs ~26 kmpl), tank range (13L vs 11L), and service interval. The Guerrilla 450 wins on suspension comfort on rough roads, sharper handling feel, lower seat height (780mm vs 803mm), and Royal Enfield's far larger service network. The Guerrilla is also about Rs 5,000 more expensive ex-showroom.
QIs the Triumph Speed 400 good for daily commuting in cities?
Yes. The Speed 400's smooth low-to-mid range torque, light 179 kg weight, and tractable engine make it well-suited for Mumbai and Bangalore traffic. The 803mm seat height is manageable given the slim seat. The only concern for daily commuters is Triumph's thin service network - make sure there's a service centre reasonably close to you.
QWhat are the known problems with the Triumph Speed 400?
Common issues reported by owners include rust on nuts, bolts, and exhaust hardware (sometimes visible at delivery), mirror vibration at highway speeds, a hard-to-read tachometer, and engine buzz above 120 kph. A few early units experienced immobiliser warning light glitches and electrical gremlins in the first 1,000 km. Most hardware rust cases were resolved by dealers under warranty.
QIs the Triumph Speed 400 good for beginners?
The Speed 400 is manageable for experienced beginners - its 37 PS, smooth power delivery, and light weight make it approachable. However, the 803mm seat height and premium price make it less ideal as a true first bike. Traction control and ABS add safety. Most reviewers recommend it for riders who've had at least one smaller bike.
