- The Thruxton 400’s 398cc liquid-cooled single produces 42hp at 9,000rpm with claimed 0–100km/h in 6.7 seconds and a top speed of 161km/h.
- Cafe racer elements include a half-fairing, bar-end mirrors, a slimmer fuel tank and a removable rear cowl over the pillion seat.
- Chassis tweaks such as a steeper rake and 10mm extra suspension travel front and rear balance city comfort with agile handling.
- Priced at Rs 2.74 lakh ex-showroom Delhi, it undercuts the Royal Enfield Continental GT 650 by Rs 50,000 to target premium mid-capacity riders.
- Critics note fairing vibrations above 6,000rpm and the absence of adjustable levers and a quickshifter as the main drawbacks.
