Triumph has revised the prices of the Speed T4 by Rs 18,000. The bike now costs Rs 1.99 lakh (ex-showroom).



The Speed T4 is the more affordable version of the Speed 400. It was initially launched at Rs 2.17 lakh, Rs 23,000 less than the Speed 400. Triumph had announced a discount of Rs 18,000 in December last year.

The Speed T4 comes with fewer features compared to the Speed 400. The bike gets a semi-digital instrument console and a single-piece seat.

The Speed T4 is powered by the same 398cc, single-cylinder engine that is restricted to 30.6 BHP and 36 Nm. The engine is mated to a 6-speed gearbox. The suspension is more conventional with a telescopic fork at the front and a mono-shock at the rear.

Looking at the sales numbers and price adjustments, it appears that the concept of lower power with stronger low-end performance didn’t resonate with the Triumph audience. The majority of customers still seem to prefer the Speed 400 over the other two models.

Sensible move. There is now enough differentiation between this and the Speed not just in ride experience but also in terms of price. This will now fight against the Hunter 350, base Jawas and the Ronin.

From what I have heard - customers are liking the engine tune.

Problem is - the step down in features is too much for the asking price. Speed 400 offers a much better quality feel due to components like that USD forks, ride by wire, traction control, aluminium finished exhaust, etc - which this Speed T4 misses out on.

May be the repositioning might help with that aspect!

This bike has a special place in my heart. It's the perfect bike, according to me. I haven't ridden this, so my opinion is based entirely on what I've seen on the roads and media.

This price cut makes it more tempting to convince my parents to get me this, but I don't think that's happening anytime soon! Maybe after I start working, I'll pick this up with my savings!

Hopefully! In my opinion, this is a solid alternative to the Hunter 350.

The price difference between the two Speeds was far too little. I got my Speed 400 for 2.23 lakh in September 2023. A year later, this was launched for 2.18 lakh and the same day the Speed 400 prices were increased to 2.4 lakh.

T4 lost out on equipment and hp while the price difference was far too little to justify this. If it had been just the engine tune change for the 5k difference, it could have been justified, maybe.

Anyways, the T4 now is priced more in line with the Base Mavrick 440 and Honda CB350 which anyways don't sell too many units. T4 is better value than those. Good that the price has been rationalized now. But the big one here is the Classic/Bullet 350. Base models of those are also within touching distance of this price. The only thing that remains to be solved now is distribution.

Its really hard for anyone to compete with Bajaj on price. Any company partnering with Bajaj for manufacturing will always hold an upper hand when it comes to pricing. Now if only the T4 can bring some sales from the big daddy Classic 350, it will be a masterstroke for Triumph.

This is just great pricing, I hope this translates into significantly improved sales numbers of the T4. I would love to see more T4's, than the Hero Maverick, HD X440, RE Hunter and RE Guierella.
