New Delhi: Just a few days before its official global debut on August 5, 2025, Triumph’s most awaited café racer the Thruxton 400 has been leaked completely. The motorcycle is a brand new product based on the successful 400cc platform shared with the Speed 400 and has been clicked production-ready giving a glimpse of how it looks.
As already revealed, the Thruxton 400 features a typical café racer styling which has been somewhat inspired by its bigger brother, the Thruxton RS but these images confirm it even more so. Speaking about the design, some of the crucial highlights include a new retro-style half-fairing that houses a round LED headlamp unit along with clip-on handlebars and classic bar-end mirrors. At the back, the bike also sports a sporty, removable rear seat cowl, sharper fuel tank with reimagined design coupled to a slim profile and signature rectangular taillight, differentiating it from Speed 400. Among the leaked units is one finished in an eye-catching dual-tone yellow and silver paint scheme.
The Thruxton 400 gets the same 398cc, Single Hi-Scope engine that powers the Speed 400 and Scrambler 400 X. The engine delivers about 39.5 bhp of power and a peak torque of around 37.5 Nm, with a six-speed gearbox on board for effective transmission duties being handled from underneath all-new bodywork. The core of the engine likely remains unaltered, though Triumph could have altered southern reaches right-drive proportion to improved acceptable it anyway.
And yes, the chassis and underpinnings are shared with its 400cc siblings. The Thruxton 400 gets a 43mm inverted front fork and vice-gas-charged, preload-adjustable monoshock at the rear. What should also be included in the feature list is a full-digital instrument console, full-LED lighting, switchable traction control and dual channel ABS.
Pricing would be around the estimated Rs 2.60 to Rs 2.70 lakh (ex-showroom) so a segment crammed with products of different capabilities will now have the Thruxton 400 adding to it. Up against other retro-styled bikes, it will sit directly across other motorcycles of the 300-400cc category like the Husqvarna Svartpilen 250 which will be launched soon in India, as well as the KTM 390 Duke, Honda CB300R and more. According to the pictures posted in the Indian Auto Portal, units have already started arriving at dealer yards and this means that deliveries could start as soon as immediately after the launch.
