If you’re hunting for a stylish, easy‑to‑ride scooter that can handle city traffic and occasional highway runs, the Triumph Speed T4 is worth a second glance. It blends a classic look with modern touches, and it comes at a price that many Indian riders find reasonable.
The Speed T4 packs a 125 cc, air‑cooled, single‑cylinder engine that churns out around 10 hp. That may not sound like a lot, but on Indian streets it feels peppy enough for quick overtakes and hill climbs. The fuel injection system keeps the throttle response smooth and helps you get around 55‑60 km/l, which is solid for daily commutes.
Transmission is a classic CVT, so there’s no clutch to worry about. You just twist the throttle and let the scooter do the rest. The ride feels relaxed, and the scooter can comfortably cruise at 80‑90 km/h when you need to get out of town.
Triumph gave the Speed T4 a retro‑inspired frame with a round headlamp and chrome accents that catch the eye. The seat is wide, flat, and covered in a grip‑friendly material, making longer rides comfortable for both rider and passenger.
Ground clearance sits at about 170 mm, so potholes and speed‑bumps are less of a headache. The under‑seat storage can fit a full‑face helmet and a few grocery bags – handy for quick trips.
On the tech side you’ll find a digital instrument cluster that shows speed, fuel level, trip meter and service reminders. It also has a USB charging port, so you can keep your phone alive while stuck in traffic.
Price-wise, the Triumph Speed T4 is positioned in the mid‑range scooter segment. Expect a showroom price close to INR 1.1 lakh (ex‑showroom) in major cities. This makes it competitive against other 125 cc scooters like the Honda Activa 125 or TVS NTORQ 125.
Pros include the premium look, decent fuel economy and reliable performance. Cons are the slightly higher price compared to some local brands and the lack of a fully digital dash.
If you’re ready to buy, consider test‑riding during the morning when traffic is lighter – you’ll get a real feel for the scooter’s power and handling. Also, check if the dealer offers a zero‑interest finance plan or a free service package for the first year; these can lower the overall cost.
For riders who value style, want a smooth ride and don’t mind paying a bit extra for brand value, the Speed T4 checks the boxes. It’s not the cheapest option, but it offers a good mix of performance, comfort and looks that many competitors lack. If you’re looking for a reliable daily commuter that also turns heads, give the Triumph Speed T4 a serious look.
Triumph India introduces the Speed T4 with four fresh colour schemes, enriching its aesthetics without altering its core performance. Priced at ₹1.99 lakh, the bike maintains its 398.15cc engine, with competition against bikes like the Hero Mavrick 440. The new colours add a stylish flair with unique finishes and subtle design updates.
