Triumph Tiger Sport 660 Launched In India
Triumph Motorcycles has launched the new Triumph Tiger Sport 660, a sport-touring machine, based on the Triumph Trident 660, in India with an introductory price of ₹ 8.95 lakh (Ex-showroom). The Trident 660 is the bestselling entry-level roadster in its category, and Triumph's second highest selling model in India, after the Triumph Street Twin. According to Triumph, the new Tiger Sport 660 is expected to bring in new customers into the Triumph brand with its blend of easy ride-ability, entertaining performance and versatile personality. The new Tiger Sport 660 is offered in three colours - Lucerne Blue & Sapphire Black, Graphite with Sapphire Black, and Korosi Red & Graphite. Customer deliveries will begin from the end of April 2022.
The Tiger Sport 660 is offered with a two-year, unlimited mileage warranty, 16,000 km service interval to keep maintenance costs low. In India, the new Tiger Sport 660 will compete against the likes of the Kawasaki Versys 650 and the Suzuki V-Stron 650 XT. Although it carries the famous "Tiger" name, the Tiger Sport 660 is not an out-and-out off-road focussed ADV but built for what Triumph calls "tarmac adventures." It does get a tall-ish stance, with a sporty-looking half-fairing, an adjustable windshield and upright riding position.
The instrument console comes with a TFT display and is ready for the accessory-fit MyTriumph connectivity system. The seat height is at 835 mm, while kerb weight is 206 kg. Fuel consumption is claimed at 22.2 kmpl. Like the Trident 660, the Tiger Sport 660 also comes with a two-year unlimited kilometres warranty, with an option to extend it for one or two years. To keep maintenance costs low, the Tiger Sport 660 also comes with 16,000 km or 12 months service intervals.
