Engine and Performance
Both bikes are powered by the same 398.15cc liquid-cooled, single-cylinder engine, but the tuning sets them apart.

On the other hand, the Speed 400 produces a higher 40PS and 37.5Nm, emphasizing more power and performance.

Conclusion
The Triumph Speed T4 and Speed 400 offer riders distinct options within Triumph’s line-up, balancing affordability and performance. While both bikes share a semi-digital instrument cluster and the same 398.15cc engine, the Speed T4 is a more budget-friendly variant, lacking features like traction control and adjustable levers, which the Speed 400 includes. Additionally, the Speed T4 is re-tuned for stronger low-end performance but sacrifices some power compared to the Speed 400. Overall, the Speed T4 provides an accessible entry point into Triumph’s range, while the Speed 400 offers a more feature-rich experience at a higher price.
