According to a leaked document, Triumph T4, Speed 400, Scrambler 400X/XC and Thruxton 400 see notable performance drops
Specifications of Triumph’s forthcoming 350 cc lineup have surfaced online ahead of its official debut – giving a sneak peak at what the downsized versions of its entry-level motorcycles will offer. The new range comprises the familiar T4, Speed 400, Scrambler 400X/XC and Thruxton 400. We are riding the downsized 350 cc versions in the coming days.
The change from 400 cc to 350 cc is not random. It is largely due to India’s updated taxation structure under GST 2.0 norms. Motorcycles above 350 cc displacement thresholds attract higher tax slabs which directly impacts pricing. By reducing engine capacity to around 350 cc, Triumph can position these offerings more competitively against the likes of Royal Enfield.
Starting with the 400 cc versions for context, the T4 produces 31 PS at 7,000 rpm and 36 Nm at 5,000 rpm. The Speed 400 and Scrambler 400X and XC both deliver 40 PS at 8,000 rpm and 37.5 Nm at 6,500 rpm. The Thruxton 400 sits at the top with 42 PS at 9,000 rpm and the same 37.5 Nm torque but arriving slightly higher in the rev range at 7,500 rpm.

As for the performance, the Speed and Scrambler models are the quickest to 100 kmph at 7.4 seconds while the Thruxton follows closely at 7.5 seconds. Top speeds range from 146.5 kmph to 161 kmph. The 350 cc versions naturally see a drop in output but the numbers still remain potent to the delight of enthusiasts.
The T4 in this form produces 29 PS at 7,500 rpm and 31 Nm at 5,500 rpm. The Speed 400 and Scrambler twins now generate 37 PS at 8,500 rpm and 32 Nm at 7,000 rpm. Meanwhile, the Thruxton 350 stands out with 40 PS at 8,750 rpm and 32 Nm at 7,500 rpm – making it the most powerful in this reduced displacement lineup.

Acceleration figures show only a slight dip despite the smaller engines. The Speed 350 manages 0–100 kmph in 8.1 seconds while the Scrambler takes 8.8 seconds and the Thruxton does it in 8.3 seconds. Even the T4, which is the least powerful, clocks 9.6 seconds. The performance numbers suggest that real-world performance differences between 350 cc and 400 cc versions may not be much.
Top speeds also remain respectable. The T4 reaches 137 kmph, the Speed touches 147 kmph, the Scrambler hits 144 kmph and the Thruxton leads again at 157 kmph. The leaked specifications show that Triumph hasn’t compromised heavily despite downsizing. The 350 cc range appears designed to retain the character of the 400 cc lineup and we expect all the bells and whistles along with it will be carried over despite the drop in price tags.
