The recently launched Bonneville T40 was the first of the Bajaj-built Triumph models to feature a circular colour TFT display with riding modes and cruise control. It now looks like these features might trickle down to the other models, as a Thruxton 400 has been spotted testing with the TFT dash.
All prices are ex-showroom, Delhi.
- Colour TFT display and switchgear borrowed from Bonneville T40
- Brings in riding modes and cruise control
- Currently, Thruxton 400 costs Rs 2.77 lakh
Have we seen the 2027 Triumph Thruxton 400 in these images?
The bike appears to be mechanically identical but receives more features
The suite of rider aids on the current Thruxton 400 is limited to a simple traction control system, which can be switched off, as well as non-switchable dual-channel ABS. This particular test mule with the TFT dash could augment that with additions like riding modes and cruise control (seen via the switchgear on the LH switch cube).
It’s worth noting that this seems like a test mule of the export-spec Thruxton 400 because it is wearing Pirelli Rosso 4 rubber (the tyres supplied on the bike in international markets). As such, it remains to be seen if the India-spec Thruxton 400 will also be updated with these features. So far, aside from the different engines owing to GST, the export-spec and India-spec Triumph 400s have been in sync when it comes to features, and only time will tell if that continues to be the case going forward.
Other than the new TFT dash and additional electronics, the Thruxton 400 appears unchanged. If the bike does indeed receive these additional features, expect an increase in its Rs 2.77 lakh price tag. This sighting now also opens the door for other models like the Tracker, Scrambler and Speed to receive the more sophisticated display, although neither Triumph nor Bajaj have officially confirmed the same.
