What to expect from the next-gen Triumph Tiger 950?
The next-gen Tiger 950 is underway. The British premium bike manufacturer has already begun the road testing of the new-gen model. The latest spy shots have emerged from Europe, showing the test bike loaded with the radar module on both ends.
This clearly hints that the new-gen Tiger 950 is possibly going to come equipped with the ADAS features like Adaptive Cruise Control, Blind Spot Monitoring, and Lane Change Assist. These features are already equipped on the bigger Tiger 1200.
Speaking of the other changes, the new Tiger 950 will get a substantial improvement in the design and ergonomics. The test bike can be seen here with the reworked side panels, front fascia, and a new fuel tank.
Moreover, the sub-frame is heavily redesigned and so is the new exhaust system, which suggest that the Tiger 950 will get an improvement in performance and efficiency from its 888cc inline-three motor. We speculate that its engine capacity is likely to increase marginally.
Since Tiger models are usually offered with two variants: one for the highways and the other for the off-road. This particular test bike appears to be the GT variant as it has the 19-/17-inch alloy wheels.
Triumph is likely to unveil and launch the new-gen Tiger 950 later this year. It will be initially introduced in Europe, later making it to the other markets, including India.
