Triumph Scrambler 400 XC Teaser Reveals Design Details- Launch Soon
Triumph Motorcycles India is expanding its range of affordable 400 cc bikes. Adding to the lineup is the off-road variant of the Scrambler 400 X, called the Scrambler 400 XC. Before the launch, the bike was spied on different occasions. However, there was no official announcement from the brand at the time. It has changed now, as the manufacturer has released a teaser of the upcoming bike. The latest image hints at the bike's design, confirming multiple speculations surrounding the machine.
Starting with the design, the Triumph Scrambler 400 XC will have a design dedicated to off-roading. In the picture, the brand has revealed the round headlamp protected by a metallic mesh. Additionally, the bike gets a beak painted in yellow, hinting at the introduction of new paint scheme options. Apart from that, the bike is expected to come with higher ground clearance, cross-spoke tubeless wheels, a visor placed over the headlamp, and a better sump guard for the engine.

The hardware of the Triumph Scrambler 400 XC is expected to be largely the same as its siblings. However, we can expect it to have a different tuning for the suspension system for better off-road prowess. Meanwhile, at the heart, it will have the same 398 cc liquid-cooled single-cylinder engine. This unit is tuned to produce 39 hp of power and 37 Nm of peak torque. This power is transferred to the rear wheel via a six-speed gearbox.
Based on a piece of leaked information, the Triumph Scrambler 400 XC will be Rs 2.94 lakh (ex-showroom). This makes it more expensive by Rs 27,000 compared to the Scrambler 400 X. In this price segment, it will compete against rivals like Royal Enfield Himalayan 450 and the KTM 390 Adventure X.

Govt may offer up to 45% waiver to clear 31L unpaid traffic e-challans
1 2 3 Bhubaneswar: State govt intends to launch an amnesty programme, offering up to 45% waiver for resolving more than 31 lakh outstanding traffic violation e-challans, valued at over Rs 1,265 crore. Accumulation of the outstanding Rs 1,265 crore from 2020 to 2024 occurred due to unpaid challan penalties for various offences, spanning from Rs 1,000 for helmet/seat belt violations to Rs 20,000 for overloading cases. Transport department statistics revealed that out of 5,996,399 e-challans worth Rs 2,398 crore issued during the period, 3,128,852 challans amounting to Rs 1,265 crore remain unpaid. "We have submitted a proposal to the govt requesting approval for a one-time settlement scheme to address the increasing number of challans. Several commercial vehicles have outstanding fines between Rs 5 lakh and Rs 10 lakh, attributed to frequent passages through state toll gates where e-detection systems were implemented in Feb this year," a transport official said. The system validates vehicle details on the Vahan portal for regulatory compliance, including insurance and other tax status, automatically generating e-challans for violations. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Chiropractor's Secret: This Quick Move Could Ease Sciatica in Seconds! CoreVitality Undo Vehicles without insurance passing through toll gates multiple times weekly or monthly receive numerous challans, resulting in substantial accumulated penalties, which owners frequently avoid paying. "The govt will soon take a call the exact percentage of the reduction offer. It may be more or less than 45%," the officer said. Section 136A of the Central Motor Vehicles Act mandates the use of advanced technology, including speed and CCTV cameras, speed guns, body cameras and automatic number plate recognition systems, for enhanced traffic management and law enforcement. Multiple factors contributed to delayed fine payments, including late notification of challans, erroneous challans and insufficient enforcement measures for non-compliance. Present regulations prohibit the resale of vehicles with pending challans. "We have also proposed blocking all vehicle-related transactions, including tax payments, for those with outstanding e-challans. Plans also include driving licence (DL) suspension for offenders," the officer said. Get the latest lifestyle updates on Times of India, along with Eid wishes , messages , and quotes !

MSRDC wants to make Mum-Pune E-way 10-lane superhighway
Pune: MSRDC wants to transform the Mumbai-Pune Expressway into a 10-lane superhighway to tide over traffic snarls and cater to the future demands of vehicular movement along the corridor, one of the busiest in the country. "This is an upgrade from our earlier proposal to make the expressway an eight-lane facility. The latest upgrade will cost around Rs1,420 crore. The DPR is being finalised and will be submitted to govt for approval," Maharashtra State Road Development Corporation (MSRDC) vice-chairman and managing director Anilkumar Gaikwad told TOI on Friday. Inaugurated in 2002, the expressway is a 94.6-km stretch connecting the bustling metropolis of Mumbai to Pune, Maharashtra's industrial and educational hub. It currently carries an estimated 65,000 vehicles daily during weekdays. The number increases to over 100,000 during weekends. With traffic volume increasing by approximately 5-6% on a year-on-year basis, the MSRDC's proposed expansion is seen as a long-term solution to the congestion. The latest project involves widening of the current infrastructure. While the construction cost is expected to be around Rs8,440 crore, the overall average cost of the project will be Rs 14,260 crore. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like เทรด Bitcoin และ Ethereum - ไม่ต้องใช้กระเป๋าเงิน!

The financing model — whether Build-Operate-Transfer (BOT) or annuity — is yet to be decided. The current toll collection for the Pune-Mumbai Expressway is valid till 2045. MSRDC would seek an extension if the expressway widening gets approval to make the project self-sustaining. At present, the journey between Mumbai and Pune takes about two hours under normal conditions. However, weekend rush hours and holiday traffic can stretch that drive by an additional hour. According to MSRDC, the proposed expansion could virtually eliminate this extended travel time, offering smoother rides even during peak periods. If approved and executed as envisioned, the expansion could become one of India's most ambitious road infrastructure upgrades — a critical step toward matching the country's rapid growth in vehicle ownership with high-capacity transit corridors, an MSRDC official said. MLA Mahesh Landge has in a social media post recently said the expansion would ensure necessary respite from traffic congestion on the e-way. "This is a long-awaited demand. The expansion is needed considering the heavy traffic along the e-way," he told TOI. People frequently travelling on the e-way are of the view that the state govt should not delay in the expansion work and carry out the project in phases to ensure that there was no traffic congestion. "Frequent traffic snarls are becoming an impediment for travellers. The expansion proposal should be immediately cleared and work should commence," said Manisha Khandekar, a frequent traveller. The expressway — which begins at Kalamboli in Navi Mumbai and ends at Kiwale near Pune — is India's first access-controlled express highway. While work on the 13-km "missing link" project is on, which will facilitate 10 lanes in the Khandala Ghat section, the proposed expansion would cover the remaining 67km of the route. According to MSRDC, land acquisition challenges were expected to be minimal. "MSRDC already holds land adjacent to most parts of the existing expressway. Only limited additional land near tunnels will be needed. These land parcels are near the tunnel zones," said an official involved with the project.
