Just a couple of days after the global unveiling of the updated Tiger 1200 range, Triumph has revealed pricing for the two variants – the GT Pro and Rally Explorer – that will be available in India from March 2027. The updated flagship adventure models receive substantial updates, including a more powerful engine, a revised chassis setup and radar-based rider aids.

  1. GT Pro priced at Rs 20.99 lakh
  2. Rally Explorer priced at Rs 23.49 lakh
  3. 1,160cc inline-triple now makes 158hp and 130Nm

2027 Triumph Tiger 1200 price and details

All variants of the new Tiger 1200 ride on 19-inch front and 17-inch rear wheels

The updated 1,160cc liquid-cooled triple now makes 158hp at 9,250rpm (8hp more than before) and 130Nm at 6,750rpm, with peak torque arriving lower in the rev range. Triumph has redesigned the cylinder head, pistons and exhaust, and fitted lighter intake and exhaust valves and more precise fuel injection. Along with the increased low-speed torque and revised primary and final-drive ratios, the crawl speed is lower by 6kph.

Both variants now use a 19-inch front and 17-inch rear wheel combination, meaning the Tiger 1200 will no longer be available with a 21-inch front wheel, as in previous generations. The GT Pro has cast aluminium wheels, while the Rally Explorer has spoked wheels.

The suspension setup comprises semi-active Showa units, with a 49mm USD fork and a monoshock, both offering 200mm of travel. The system features automatic self-levelling preload and uses inputs from multiple sensors, including a six-axis IMU, to continuously adjust compression and rebound damping. Braking hardware includes twin 320mm front discs with Brembo Stylema calipers and a 282mm rear disc. Kerb weights are listed at 250kg for the GT Pro and 268kg for the Rally Explorer.

Another notable update is the addition of a front and rear Bosch radar system, which enables adaptive cruise control, group ride assist, emergency brake assist, forward collision warning, blind spot assist and rear distance warning. The new 7-inch TFT touchscreen offers wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, while the tank-top phone compartment has a USB-C charging port. The GT Pro has seven riding modes, while the Rally Explorer adds an Off-road Pro mode, bringing the total to eight. 

Other differences between the two include a 20-litre fuel tank on the GT Pro and a larger 30-litre tank on the Rally Explorer. The latter also gets a tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS), an engine guard, lower and upper engine bars, an adjustable folding brake pedal, and handlebars positioned 10mm higher and 10mm wider.

The GT Pro is priced at Rs 20.99 lakh, while the Rally Explorer costs Rs 23.49 lakh. For reference, the outgoing MY24 Tiger 1200 Rally Pro and GT Explorer listed on the Triumph India website are priced at Rs 20.79 lakh and Rs 20.89 lakh, respectively.

Even at their higher price points, the new Tiger 1200 variants undercut rivals such as the BMW R 1300 GS, which costs Rs 24 lakh (Rs 26.5 lakh for the GSA), and the Ducati Multistrada V4, which starts at Rs 25.06 lakh.
