Triumph Motorcycles has received 10,000 bookings for its Speed 400 and Scrambler 400 X motorcycles just 10 days after its global reveal. The Triumph Speed 400 was launched at an introductory price of Rs 2.23 lakh for the first 10,000 customers, post which its price will be hiked to Rs 2.33 lakh (all prices in ex-showroom, Delhi). Triumph is still yet to reveal the pricing for the Scrambler 400 X and said in its statement that it only plans to do so in October.

Commenting on the motorcycles’ success, Rakesh Sharma, Executive Director, Bajaj Auto Ltd, said: “We are excited by the overwhelming response we have received following the launch. A pre-order of 10,000 bikes within such a short span is unprecedented and a testament to the unwavering faith that riders have placed in Bajaj Auto and Triumph Motorcycles. We are committed to our promise of manufacturing exceptional motorcycles that captivate riders with their performance, design, and technology.”
The Speed 400 was recently the subject of social media chatter after an on-road price breakup of the motorcycle started doing rounds on the Internet. The unverified price break-up read that after a range of additional charges, the motorcycle will be available at an on-road price at just a little short of Rs 3.40 lakh – an increase of well over Rs 1 lakh to its ex-showroom price. Following this, the manufacturer released a joint statement with Bajaj Auto dismissing the following rumours. It also said that it will reveal the new Speed 400’s official on-road pricing details on July 10, 2023.
