Benelli TRK 552 range launches from ₹7.22 lakh in India

The Benelli TRK 552 range has reached India with reported ex-showroom prices starting at ₹7.22 lakh for the road-focused TRK 552 and ₹7.74 lakh for the TRK 552X. A 552X Limited Edition is listed at ₹7.90 lakh. Launch reporting puts bookings open through authorised Benelli Keeway dealerships from 22 October 2026. The main buyer decision is the ₹52,000 step from the standard model to the X, with different wheel and tyre choices rather than just a change of name.

TRK 552 and 552X: prices and the practical distinction

Subtracting the published starting prices gives a ₹52,000 premium for the 552X and a further ₹16,000 for the Limited Edition. These are ex-showroom price differences, not complete on-road cost differences. Registration, insurance, accessories and local charges need a written dealer quote.

Engine and touring equipment

Detailed launch descriptions give both models a 554 cc liquid-cooled parallel-twin engine, producing 52 bhp at 8,500 rpm and 49 Nm at 6,500 rpm. The standard TRK 552's description pairs it with a six-speed gearbox and a slip-and-assist clutch. The model name should not be used as a substitute for the stated engine displacement.

The reported touring equipment includes a five-inch TFT with map mirroring and Bluetooth, heated grips, a heated seat and tyre-pressure monitoring. The updates also include a revised aluminium swingarm and 50 mm Marzocchi upside-down forks. These are equipment claims from the launch material, rather than results from an independent road test.

Which version should a touring buyer consider?

The wheel and tyre distinction makes intended use a sensible starting point. Buyers planning mainly road touring can evaluate the standard 552, while those considering the X should check how its wheel setup, tyres and riding fit suit their routes. Spoked wheels alone do not prove off-road capability, and the announcement does not establish a tested comfort or handling advantage.

Before deciding, sit on both versions, check the feel of the seat and controls, and establish the service support available where the bike will be used. Ask the dealer to confirm final equipment, tyre specification, warranty, accessory compatibility and a realistic delivery allocation. Do not assume that open bookings establish immediate availability in every city.
