Engine and Performance of the Speed T4
The Speed T4 has the same 399cc engine as the Speed 400, but it has been changed a bit. The engine in the T4 produces 31 HP and 36 Nm of torque, which is less than the Speed 400’s 40 HP. However, the T4 is designed for easier riding at lower speeds, making it great for everyday use.
The rear sprocket on the T4 has fewer teeth, which makes the bike smoother to ride. The T4 does not have traction control, which helps keep the price lower.

Price and Market Position
The Speed T4 is priced at Rs. 2.17 lakhs, making it Rs. 23,000 cheaper than the updated Speed 400, which now costs Rs. 2.40 lakhs (ex-showroom). Triumph is offering a more affordable option with the T4 while still giving riders a good bike. This price difference might make some people choose the T4 over the Speed 400, or vice versa.
According to Sumeet Narang, President of ProBiking at Bajaj Auto, both bikes are aimed at different kinds of riders. Some riders might start with the T4 and later move up to the Speed 400, but each bike has its own group of fans.
