Quick Overview:
- Triumph Scrambler 400 X gets a new ‘Lava Red Satin’ shade for 2025
- No mechanical changes to the engine or chassis
- Still priced at ₹2.62 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi)
Triumph has added a dash of boldness to its most accessible scrambler. The 2025 Scrambler 400 X now comes in a new Lava Red Satin colour, joining the existing palette of Carnival Red, Phantom Black, and Matt Khaki Green. This update keeps the scrambler fresh for the new model year without tinkering with its mechanicals or pricing.
The Satin Red tank is contrasted by a black finish on the frame and wheels, while silver touches on the engine and exhaust keep things visually balanced. At ₹2.67 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi), the Scrambler 400 X continues to offer decent value for a retro-themed scrambler with off-road credentials.
Engine and Performance: No Surprises, Still Capable
Powering the bike is the same 398.15cc single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine from the Speed 400. It produces 40 PS at 8000 rpm and 37.5 Nm at 6500 rpm, paired with a 6-speed gearbox. The motorcycle is now BS6
Though the engine is shared with the road-biased Speed 400, the Scrambler gets longer suspension travel—150 mm at both ends—and a larger 19-inch front wheel to deal with light trails.
The dual-channel ABS, switchable at the rear, remains standard. So does the ride-by-wire throttle and slip-and-assist clutch.
Built to Tackle More Than Just Asphalt
The bike uses a hybrid perimeter frame and bolt-on subframe setup. It rides on wider handlebars, a taller seat height of 835 mm, and a 19-inch front wheel—clearly tuned for a more rugged posture.
At 185 kg (kerb), it’s heavier than the Speed 400, but still manageable for new riders dipping their toes into the scrambler segment.
Competition Check: What Else Is Out There?
The Triumph Scrambler 400 X goes up against a mix of machines, including the Yezdi Scrambler, Royal Enfield Scram 411, and Himalayan 450. While the Yezdi is cheaper and more stripped-down, the Scrambler 400 X stands out with better refinement and premium touches thanks to its Bajaj-Triumph DNA.
Final Thoughts
No extra horses, no fancy new tech—but that pop of orange? It does catch your eye. If you were already considering the Scrambler 400 X, this just makes the decision a bit more colourful. And if not, well… at least you’ve got one more hue to ogle at the next traffic light.
