New Triumph Trident 660 launched at Rs 8.49 lakh (ex-showroom)
Cruise Control and Sport mode now standard
Showa suspension upgrade adds better handling
Three new dual-tone colour options introduced
Triumph Motorcycles has just launched the updated Trident 660 for Model Year 2025 in India, and it’s gotten a bunch of exciting upgrades. Starting at ₹8.49 lakh (ex-showroom), the new Trident 660 brings in more features, fresh styling, and improved comfort — making it a more premium offering than before. The price is up by ₹37,000 compared to the older model, but when you see what’s new, the bump feels pretty justified.
More Features Now Standard — Including Cruise Control!
Let’s start with the big news. Features that were earlier optional extras are now standard across the 2025 Trident lineup. That means you now get:
Cruise Control: A much-requested addition. While it works well to maintain highway speeds, it’s worth noting that the system doesn’t let you adjust the speed once it’s set unless you completely disengage it.
Bidirectional Quickshifter: Makes gear shifts buttery smooth, both up and down the gears — without the clutch.
Bluetooth Connectivity: Hook your phone to the TFT screen for call alerts, music, turn-by-turn navigation and more.
Sport Riding Mode: This is a new addition alongside Road and Rain modes. Expect a sharper throttle response for those twisty weekend rides.
Mechanically, the biggest update is the introduction of the Showa Big Piston forks at the front. These premium USD forks bring better damping and feedback. At the rear, you still get a Showa monoshock with preload adjustability. That’s pretty much the only mechanical tweak over the older Trident, but it does improve handling.
The 2025 Triumph Trident 660 makes a strong case for itself as a middleweight naked bike that’s both stylish and practical. With better touring-friendly features like cruise control, Bluetooth, and a quickshifter now standard, it’s clearly geared toward everyday riders who want a blend of performance and tech.
Sure, the price has gone up, but considering all the added equipment and new styling, the Trident 660 still feels like a pretty good deal in its segment. Whether you’re upgrading from a smaller bike or just want a sporty roadster with everyday usability, the new Trident is definitely worth a look.
