More power, same torque, and identical pricing for Triumph’s latest 400s.

More power, same torque, and identical pricing for Triumph’s latest 400s.

  • Triumph has confirmed the Thruxton 400 and Tracker 400 will each cost $9995*.
  • The Thruxton 400 is due in dealerships from February 2026, with the Tracker 400 arriving in April.
  • Both use a 398cc TR-series single producing about 31kW at 9000rpm and 37.5Nm.

Triumph’s expanding 400cc line-up is about to get a serious injection of attitude, with official New Zealand pricing confirmed for the all-new Thruxton 400 and Tracker 400.

Both bikes will land with a sharp $9995 sticker (plus on-road costs), undercutting plenty of rivals while offering very different flavours of modern classic motorcycling .

Two paths, one price tag

The Thruxton 400 arrives first, due in dealerships from February 2026, reviving one of Triumph’s most storied names. The Tracker 400 follows in April, leaning hard into flat-track style for riders who like their classics a little rough around the edges.

Despite the contrasting personalities, pricing is identical for both models - an unusually tidy move in today’s increasingly fragmented small-capacity market.

More poke from the TR-series single

Under the skin, both bikes share the latest evolution of Triumph’s 398cc TR-series single-cylinder engine. Output climbs to 42PS, which translates to around 31kW, representing a 5% increase over the Speed 400 and Scrambler 400 siblings. Peak power arrives at 9000rpm, while torque remains unchanged at 37.5Nm, with a claimed 80% available from just 3000rpm.

In practice, that should mean the same friendly low-end punch, paired with a harder-charging top end.

Triumph says the gains come from revised mechanical internals, including a new camshaft profile and updated engine tune. Ride-by-wire throttle, a six-speed gearbox, switchable traction control and ABS are all standard, keeping the tech list competitive without overwhelming the retro brief.

Café racer vs flat-track rebel

The Thruxton 400 leans fully into café racer tradition, with clip-on handlebars, a lower and narrower front end, rear-set pegs and a dedicated chassis tuned for sharper responses. Suspension consists of 43mm upside-down forks up front and a preload-adjustable monoshock at the rear, with Pirelli Diablo Rosso IV tyres underlining its sporty intent.

The Tracker 400 takes a very different stance. Wider bars, an upright posture and dual-purpose Pirelli MT60 RS tyres give it a tougher, more playful vibe.

Suspension travel is slightly longer at the front, and styling cues like number boards, upswept silencers and bold graphics channel flat-track racers rather than café stop heroes.

With matching prices, improved performance and two clearly defined characters, Triumph’s latest 400s look set to stir things up at the accessible end of the market. The only real question now is which one speaks louder to your inner motorcyclist.
