Yezdi Scrambler vs Triumph Tracker 400: Detailed Comparison

The sub-400cc motorcycle segment in India has seen a steady shift towards more lifestyle-oriented motorcycles, especially in the scrambler and neo-retro categories. Buyers today aren’t just looking for performance or efficiency; they also want versatility, design appeal, and the ability to handle mixed riding conditions. The recently launched 2026 Yezdi Scrambler and Triumph Tracker 400 are two motorcycles that tap directly into this demand, but they go about it in very different ways.

With both bikes targeting similar buyers but offering contrasting experiences, the comparison becomes quite interesting. Here’s a detailed breakdown of how they stack up against each other on paper.

Price & Variants

• The Yezdi Scrambler starts at Rs 1.99 lakh and goes up to Rs 2.08 lakh depending on the colour option. This makes it one of the more affordable scramblers in the segment and it is Rs 46,275 - Rs 37,275 cheaper than the Triumph Tracker 400 depending on the colour options.

Dimensions & Design

• On paper, the Yezdi Scrambler is clearly designed with off-road intent in mind. It has a significantly longer wheelbase, which improves stability on off-road trails, and much higher ground clearance, allowing it to tackle rough roads with ease.

• The Triumph Tracker 400, on the other hand, has a shorter wheelbase, which should make it more agile and easier to handle in the city and also on the highway. Its lower ground clearance indicates a stronger focus on road use rather than off-road riding.

• The Triumph bike does have a slight edge in fuel tank capacity, which can translate to better range on long rides. It also features a slightly lower seat height, making it more accessible to riders of all heights.

• In terms of weight, the Yezdi Scrambler is lighter by 7kg, which improves manoeuvrability and makes it easier to handle in tight situations. The Triumph, being heavier, will feel more planted but less nimble at low speeds.

• From a design perspective, the Yezdi embraces a rugged scrambler look with a high-rise front fender, spoked wheels, and a round side panel with a racing number. The Triumph Tracker 400, meanwhile, has a flat track-themed design language, with a flat seat and a compact tail section.

• The Yezdi Scrambler is available with striking colour options that add to its retro charm. 

• The Triumph Tracker 400’s colour options resemble its flat track inspiration and you can check them out in our detailed explainer here.

Underpinnings

• The Yezdi Scrambler has a telescopic fork and twin rear shock absorbers. This setup is simple and effective for handling uneven surfaces and off-road conditions.

• The Triumph Tracker 400, however, has an inverted front fork and a monoshock.

• Braking performance should be similar on both motorcycles, with large disc brakes at both ends and dual-channel ABS. The Yezdi has slightly larger discs, which could translate to better stopping power.

• The tyre setup differs significantly. The Yezdi uses a 19-inch front wheel, which is more suitable for off-road riding. The Triumph uses smaller 17-inch wheels with wider tyres, which improve grip and handling on tarmac.

• The Yezdi Scrambler has the advantage when it comes to off-road capability and handling rough terrain. The Triumph Tracker 400, on the other hand, offers superior on-road dynamics thanks to its suspension setup and wider tyres.

Features

• Both the Yezdi Scrambler and the Triumph Tracker 400 come equipped with full-LED lighting and USB charging, ensuring modern usability and convenience. But Bluetooth connectivity is not available on either motorcycles.

• The Triumph Tracker 400 is equipped with an analogue speedometer and an LCD screen that displays the odometer, odometer, tachometer, two trip meters, fuel gauge, and clock.

• The Yezdi Scrambler has an LCD instrument console that shows the speedometer, tachometer, fuel level, gear position indicator, odometer, trip meters and clock.

• The Triumph Tracker 400 has switchable traction control while the Yezdi Scrambler has three ABS modes: Road, Off-road, and Rain.

• There is very little to separate the two in this department. Both motorcycles offer good features, and neither has a clear advantage over the other.

• All said and done, we have explained the features of the Yezdi Scrambler in detail. 

Performance

• Performance is where the Triumph Tracker 400 starts to pull ahead.

• The Yezdi Scrambler is powered by a 334cc engine that produces 30PS and 30Nm. It offers decent performance for everyday riding and is tuned to deliver usable power across a wide range of conditions.

• The Triumph Tracker 400, however, produces significantly higher power and torque outputs. This gives it a clear advantage in terms of outright performance, especially at higher speeds. Making quick overtakes and having fun on the mountain twisties should be an easy affair with the Tracker 400.

• The Yezdi’s engine is likely to feel more relaxed and manageable, especially in off-road conditions. The Triumph’s engine, on the other hand, is more performance-oriented and better suited for highway riding.
