Farooq, Business Head - Triumph Motorcycles India said, “We’re excited to bring
the Trident 660 in the country as it marks our entry into the premium
middleweight roadster category in India. The Trident is the latest addition to
Triumph’s roadster portfolio in India, taking the count to four - Street Triple
RS, Street Triple R, The Speed Triple 1200RS and the Trident 660. The response
to the Trident has been overwhelming, as we’ve had 125+ bookings even before
the price announcement. We are confident that Trident will set new benchmarks
in the segment and increase the reach and range of Triumph in India. With the
Trident, Triumph now offers 16 motorcycles across the entire range in India,
offering motorcycles across varied riding styles and segments”.
Adding
further, he said, “This all-new roadster with its incredibly competitive
introductory pricing coupled with low cost of ownership and an easy EMI option
of 9999/- will open gates for more new age riders to enter the Triumph brand
ownership. The encouraging number of pre-bookings is a testimony to how well
received the brand and the motorcycle is in India. Our next step is to begin
the seamless delivery of the Trident to customers and our dealerships are completely
prepared to handle the expected footfall and increased inquiries. With the slew
of motorcycles we’ve launched this year and one’s that are in the pipeline,
we’re confident that Triumph will further strengthen its already strong
position in the premium motorcycle industry in India ”.
The
bike also has an unbeatable low cost of ownership and service costs –a 2 year
unlimited mileage warranty and class-leading 16,000km service interval; Trident
660’s service interval is between 25% and 65% higher than the main competitors
in the middle-weight roadster category across the globe.
