Triumph 350cc Motorcycle Prices May Increase by Up to Rs 10,000 from June 1

Triumph Motorcycles recently launched 350cc versions of its 400 platform to take advantage of the lower 18 percent GST bracket. The entry-level Triumph Speed T4 kept its price unchanged, while higher models like the Triumph Scrambler 400 saw price reductions of up to Rs 11,000 (ex-showroom, Delhi).

Key Highlights

• Triumph launched 350cc versions of its 400 platform to benefit from lower GST rates
• Mumbai dealership indicates a price increase of Rs 5,000 to Rs 10,000 from June 1
• Current line-up includes six models with Speed T4 priced at Rs 1.95 lakh
• Scrambler 400 and Thruxton 400 saw price cuts of up to Rs 11,000 after GST revision

A Triumph dealership in Mumbai has now announced on social media that prices for the new 350cc models may rise by Rs 5,000 to Rs 10,000 starting June 1. This potential increase could impact buyers who are considering these motorcycles in the near future.

Current Triumph 400 Line-Up

The Triumph 400 range now includes six models: Speed T4, Speed 400, Scrambler 400, Scrambler 400 XC, Thruxton 400, and the recently launched Tracker 400. Among these, the Speed T4 was the only model that did not receive a price reduction after the engine downsizing. It continues to be priced at Rs 1.95 lakh (ex-showroom).

The Scrambler 400 and Thruxton 400 benefited the most from the GST revision, with prices dropping by approximately Rs 10,000 to Rs 11,000. These reductions made the motorcycles more accessible to buyers following the shift to a smaller engine capacity.

Expected Price Increase and Implications

If the anticipated price hike takes effect, some models could see their prices return to levels similar to when they featured the larger 399cc single-cylinder engine. This would reduce the benefit gained from the recent tax-driven price cuts.

Triumph Motorcycles India has not yet released an official statement about the possible price increase. The company has been contacted for clarification, and updates will be provided as more information becomes available.

Potential buyers are advised to check with their local Triumph dealerships to confirm the current prices. This is especially important for those planning to purchase before the possible price hike in June.
