It’s now become common knowledge that the new GST regime imposes 18 per cent of GST on motorcycles with an engine displacement of up to 350cc. It is a fair chunk lower than the 40 per cent levied on bikes that spill over the aforementioned cap on the engine size. In order to adapt to this critical fiscal shift, Triumph Motorcycles India have launched its Tracker 400 at ₹2.46 lakh. Contrary to its ‘400’ suffix, it packs a newly developed 349cc, liquid-cooled, single-cylinder engine which is derived from the 398cc TR-Series of Triumph engine that did duties on the Speed 400, Scrambler 400 X and Thruxton 400. This new engine is set to power the whole 2026 Triumph '400' range, albeit in different states of tune. Here’s a rundown of what all the Tracker 400 offers in the market.
