2013 Triumph Trophy prices

Following its unveiling back in June, Triumph has now revealed what the new 2013 Trophy tourer is going to cost.

In the UK, the standard version carries a price tag of £12,949 on the road, while the SE model - which adds an iPod compatible audio system with Bluetooth connectivity plus electronically-adjustable suspension to the specification - is £14,299.

For the German market, those amounts are €16,990 and €18,670 respectively (plus a delivery charge of €370).

Across the Atlantic, only the Trophy SE is being offered. The United States MSRP has been set at $18,999 (excluding various charges such as destination, handling, pre-delivery, title and license), and in Canada the figure is $19,999.

But how do those prices compare with the BMW R 1200 RT, Honda ST1300 Pan European and Yamaha FJR1300A, three bikes that are likely to be among the Triumph’s main rivals?

The answer is very favourably, at least in the UK. And judging by some other key measures as well, the Trophy should be a competitive package:

Trophy SE £14,299

Saab 9-3 Aero Carlsson

Image
Saab has got experience of producing special editions in honour of rally driver Erik Carlsson, having previously named versions of the 900 and 9000 after him during the late 1980s and early 1990s. Now it has decided to do it again, this time to mark the fiftieth anniversary of the Swedish driver’s first win in Britain’s RAC Rally, which was achieved at the wheel of a Saab 96. Thankfully, the company has resisted the urge to just bung some fancy alloys and a few other extra bits onto something like a mid-range diesel model. Instead, it appears to have resurrected the limited edition Turbo X from a couple of years ago, as the new edition similarly features a turbocharged 2.8 litre petrol V6, Saab’s XWD all-wheel drive system and a six-speed automatic gearbox. The result is the 9-3 Aero Carlsson saloon, which turns out to be a very rapid car. With 276 bhp (205 kW / 280 PS) and a healthy 400 Nm of torque, the 0-60 mph (96 km/h) dash takes just 6.9 seconds. But it’s in the mid-range t...

American spec Fiat 500

Image
Fiat has released the first details and images of the North American specification 500. The tiny city car will be available in Pop, Lounge and Sport trim levels, and is distinguished from the European version by its more aggressive front and rear bumpers, bigger grille and flared sills. Another unique feature is the engine. Fiat has decided to use the 1.4 MultiAir unit currently found in models such as the Fiat Punto Evo and Alfa Romeo MiTo. Perhaps it felt that using the forthcoming two-cylinder TwinAir in the American 500 would have been too much for markets there to take? There’s no word yet on what power output the MultiAir will have, although in its current applications it comes with either 103 bhp (77 kW / 105 PS), 133 bhp (99 kW / 135 PS) or 167 bhp (125 kW / 170 PS). Similarly, prices have yet to be confirmed, but hopefully both details will have been sorted out by the time the order book for the 500 hatch opens later this year. For convertible fans, the 500C is due ...
