Bajaj Auto and Triumph Bikes Tuesday formally unveiled the collectively developed all-new two bikes in London, UK. Each the bikes —Triumph Avenue 400 and the Avenue Scrambler 400—might be manufactured by Bajaj Auto in its Chakan plant in Maharashtra and launched within the home market on 5 July 2023.
The Velocity 400 borrows its styling cues from the Velocity Twin 900 (previously referred to as the Avenue Twin), whereas the Scrambler 400 X’s design is derived from the Scrambler 900.
The Avenue 400 is a modern-retro road bare that can compete in opposition to the likes of the Royal Enfield Hunter 350, Traditional 350, and the Honda CB350RS. In the meantime, the Triumph Avenue Scrambler 400, because the title suggests, is a correct scrambler with a bigger entrance wheel and dual-purpose tyres. It should rival the Royal Enfield Scram 411 and the Yezdi Scrambler in India.
Each the bikes are powered by a brand new 398cc liquid-cooled, single-cylinder engine referred to as TR-series engine, Euro 5 compliant. The output stands at 40hp at 8000rpm and 37.5Nm at 6500rpm, which places Triumph’s fairly near KTM’s 390 lineup when it comes to energy and torque. Each the bikes get a 6-speed gearbox.
The body of the 2 bikes is hybrid backbone/perimeter body constructed from tubular metal. Although the engine is an identical throughout the 2 bikes, there are appreciable variations within the chassis. Whereas the Avenue 400 will characteristic 17-inch alloy wheels and road-going tyres, the Avenue Scrambler 400 will use a 19-inch entrance wheel, a long-travel suspension setup, and maybe even a unique sub-frame. Brakes are barely completely different, with the Scrambler sporting a barely bigger 320mm entrance disc in comparison with the Velocity’s 300mm unit.
Each bikes will get a digital instrument cluster, full-LED lighting, and dual-channel ABS.
Wanting on the options and {hardware} of the 2 premium bikes, we count on the Triumph Avenue 400 to be priced round Rs. 2.60 lakh (ex-showroom), whereas the Avenue Scrambler 400 might be priced barely greater at Rs. 2.80 lakh (ex-showroom).
