Benelli TRK 552, 552X launch in India at ₹7.22 lakh: buyer details

According to ETAuto and separate BikeWale reports published on 22 Oct 2026, Benelli has launched the TRK 552 and TRK 552X adventure motorcycles in India at ₹7.22 lakh and ₹7.74 lakh ex-showroom, respectively. A TRK 552X Limited Edition is listed at ₹7.90 lakh ex-showroom. Bookings opened at authorised Benelli Keeway dealerships on 22 Oct 2026, while the final on-road cost will vary by state, registration, insurance and other charges.

The launch gives riders a new middleweight touring option with a 554cc parallel-twin engine, a 5-inch connected display and touring-focused equipment. The key buying question is not only the headline price: the standard TRK 552 and the more off-road-oriented TRK 552X use different wheel and tyre packages, so the extra cost is tied to how the motorcycle is likely to be used.

Key takeaways

The Benelli TRK 552 starts at ₹7.22 lakh ex-showroom, while the TRK 552X starts at ₹7.74 lakh; the Limited Edition costs ₹7.90 lakh.
Both motorcycles use a 554cc liquid-cooled parallel-twin engine producing 52 bhp and 49 Nm, paired with a six-speed gearbox and slipper clutch.
The standard TRK 552 uses 17-inch alloy wheels; the TRK 552X gets 19-inch front and 17-inch rear spoked wheels for a more mixed-surface focus.
Bookings are open through authorised Benelli Keeway dealerships, but ETAuto said delivery and availability details were not yet specified.

Benelli TRK 552 and 552X: launch prices

All three prices are ex-showroom India, so they are not the amount a buyer will necessarily pay at registration. The ₹52,000 gap between the standard TRK 552 and TRK 552X is calculated from the launch prices reported independently by ETAuto and BikeWale on 22 Oct 2026. Road tax, registration, insurance, accessories and financing can change the final invoice from one state or buyer profile to another.

Variant	Ex-showroom price	Positioning and hardware
TRK 552	₹7.22 lakh	Road-focused version with 17-inch alloy wheels and Pirelli tyres
TRK 552X	₹7.74 lakh	More mixed-surface focus with 19/17-inch spoked wheels and Metzeler tyres
TRK 552X Limited Edition	₹7.90 lakh	Limited Edition variant of the X

For a precise ownership budget, buyers can first compare current fuel rates in their city through the live fuel prices tool. That matters because a long-distance motorcycle’s running cost depends on actual riding distance, traffic, fuel price and riding conditions rather than the ex-showroom number alone.

Shared engine and equipment

Both motorcycles use a 554cc liquid-cooled parallel-twin engine making 52 bhp and 49 Nm, according to the ETAuto and BikeWale launch reports. The engine is paired with a six-speed gearbox and slipper clutch. This gives the two variants the same basic powertrain, so the price difference is mainly about chassis hardware, wheel format and the intended touring environment rather than a different engine output.

The common equipment list includes a 50mm Marzocchi upside-down front fork, Bosch dual-channel ABS, a 5-inch TFT display with Bluetooth connectivity and navigation, tyre-pressure monitoring, heated grips and a heated seat. These features are relevant to touring riders because they combine long-distance comfort, braking assistance and information access without requiring the two models to be treated as separate engine families.

Power figures are not the same as real-world performance or economy. Actual fuel use will depend on load, speed, road surface, traffic and maintenance. Riders planning a long route can use the fuel cost calculator to model different distances and fuel-price assumptions before comparing the two variants.

TRK 552 or TRK 552X: what changes in use

The standard TRK 552 is the road-biased choice in the launch range. It uses 17-inch alloy wheels and Pirelli tyres, a combination that is generally easier to relate to paved-road touring. The TRK 552X uses a 19-inch front and 17-inch rear spoked-wheel layout with Metzeler adventure tyres, giving it the more visibly mixed-surface specification. ETAuto described the standard version as focused on road touring and the X as suited to riding beyond paved roads.

That distinction is more useful than treating the TRK 552X as simply the costlier model. The X’s wheel and tyre configuration may be relevant to a rider whose route regularly includes broken surfaces or gravel, while a mostly highway-based trip plan puts more emphasis on seating comfort, luggage, service access and the total on-road price. A showroom inspection and a test ride can help a buyer check reach, low-speed balance and luggage fit before making a decision.

For either variant, the purchase price is only one part of a touring budget. The road-trip planner can help map distance and stops, while the toll-charge calculator is useful when a route includes national highways. These tools do not replace a dealer quotation, but they make the recurring trip-cost assumptions visible.

Bookings, availability and what to check next

Bookings opened through authorised Benelli Keeway dealerships from 22 Oct 2026, according to the launch coverage. ETAuto reported that delivery timing and wider availability details had not yet been specified. That means buyers should ask the dealership to separate ex-showroom price, road tax, registration, insurance, accessories and any handling or logistics charges on the quotation.

It is also worth checking the exact variant and wheel package on the booking document. The standard TRK 552 and TRK 552X share the engine and much of the electronic equipment, but their wheel, tyre and intended-use differences can affect the kind of roads for which each motorcycle is most suitable. The written quotation should separate the motorcycle price from registration, insurance, accessories and other charges.

What the launch means for touring riders

Benelli’s new range expands its India adventure-touring line with two closely related motorcycles at different ex-showroom price points. The practical takeaway is to compare the route and ownership plan first: the TRK 552 is configured around road touring, while the TRK 552X adds a more adventure-focused wheel and tyre setup. The final decision will also depend on the city-specific on-road price, dealer availability, service support and the rider’s expected fuel and highway costs.
