Harley-Davidson X440T Set for Launch on December 6: What to Expect from the New Sportier Variant
Harley-Davidson is gearing up to expand its portfolio in India with the launch of a new, sportier variant of its popular X440 motorcycle. Officially dubbed the Harley-Davidson X440T, the new model is scheduled to hit the market on December 6, 2025.
This upcoming variant aims to offer a fresh aesthetic appeal with several cosmetic enhancements while retaining the mechanical reliability of the standard X440.
Design and Cosmetic Updates
The most noticeable changes in the X440T are visual, giving the bike a distinct and sportier character compared to the standard model.
- Rear Profile: The rear-three-quarter design has been revised, featuring a longer tail cowl and a different rear mudguard.
- Exhaust and Seating: It sports a new heat shield on the exhaust end-can and a new ribbed seat for enhanced styling and comfort.
- Additional Elements: The bike gets bar-end mirrors for a café racer-inspired look, though it retains the signature checkered graphics on the side panels and tail section.
- Colour Options: The X440T will be available in four new colour schemes: Black, White, Red, and Dark Blue.
Engine and Performance
Despite the visual makeover, the heart of the machine remains unchanged. The Harley-Davidson X440T will continue to be powered by the same 440cc, single-cylinder, air and oil-cooled engine found in the standard X440.
- Power: 27.4 PS at 6,000 rpm.
- Torque: 38 Nm at 4,000 rpm.
This engine configuration ensures that the bike maintains its known performance characteristics, offering a balance of low-end torque and mid-range power suitable for Indian riding conditions.
Expected Features and Price
The X440T is expected to come equipped with modern features to enhance the riding experience. Anticipated additions include a ride-by-wire throttle, multiple riding modes, and a traction control system.
In terms of pricing, the X440T is positioned as a premium offering. It is likely to command a premium of approximately Rs 10,000 over the current top-spec S variant of the X440.
- Current Top-End Price: Rs 2,79,599 (ex-showroom).
- Expected Launch Price: Around Rs 2.90 lakh (ex-showroom).
