Triumph has announced that, after great success around the world, the English company will bring its 2026 Scrambler 400 XC stateside, and I couldn't be more stoked. The off-roader is based on the brand's small-displacement 400cc architecture, and was one that RideApart even asked if we were going to get just a few weeks ago, as it met everything we could've asked for.
It's small, nimble, and incredibly inexpensive as new motorcycles go. Basically, it was a competitor to my lord and savior, the Royal Enfield Himalayan 450. And two is better than one, and if you have one, you have to get it a friend, right?
But before we get into the specs and details of the new Triumph, it's becoming increasingly clear that more and more manufacturers are seeing the real-world financial benefits of having small-displacement and inexpensive motorcycles in their lineups, as not only is the Triumph coming out, but we have more models from Royal Enfield, more from Kawasaki, more from Honda, and even a new small-displacement off-roader from BMW.
