Harley-Davidson has just rolled out the 2026 X440T, a fresh update to their popular X440 model made with Hero MotoCorp in India. This bike is grabbing attention with its sharper looks and smarter features. It’s aimed at riders who want that classic Harley vibe but in a more affordable, modern package. Deliveries start in January 2026, and it’s already turning heads as an exciting entry-level roadster.
The X440T stands out right away with a redesigned rear end. The tail is sleeker now, with a longer cowl and bigger pillion grab handles. It looks more aggressive and sporty, inspired by Harley’s old XR racers. You get new colors like matte dark blue, red, black, and white, plus cool graphics on the tank. The seat is comfy, and bar-end mirrors add a nice touch. Overall, it’s got that tough Harley style but feels lighter and easier to handle in city traffic.
Performance
Under the hood, the X440T keeps the reliable 440cc single-cylinder engine. It pumps out about 27 horsepower and a strong 38 Nm of torque, perfect for quick acceleration and fun rides. The big upgrade is ride-by-wire throttle, which makes the power delivery smoother. It’s great for twisting roads or daily commutes – plenty of low-end grunt without feeling overwhelming.
Mileage
Harley hasn’t shared official numbers yet, but expect around 35-38 kmpl based on the similar X440. That’s pretty good for a bike with this much character. It means fewer stops at the pump, whether you’re cruising highways or stuck in traffic.
Features
This is where the X440T shines with smart technology. You get two ride modes – Road and Rain – to match the weather. There’s switchable traction control and ABS for better safety on slippery roads. The 3.5-inch TFT display is colorful, with Bluetooth for calls, navigation, and music. Dual-channel ABS is standard, and the LED lights keep things bright. It’s packed with modern goodies that make riding safer and more enjoyable.
Price
The 2026 X440T starts at Rs 2,79,500 (ex-showroom in India), which is about $3,300 USD. That’s a solid deal for a Harley with these upgrades. The regular X440 models got price cuts too, starting lower now. It’s way more accessible than bigger Harleys, perfect for new riders wanting to join the brand.
