Nice design and specs, but I was expecting something more cutting edge from Triumph... maybe next time.

Power comes from a Shimano E6100 mid-drive motor putting out 250 “nominal” watts, but widely known to peak somewhere above 500 W. The integrated battery is a Shimano E8035 model with 504 Wh of capacity. Triumph rates the Trekker GT for 150 km (93 miles) of range on a single charge, but that’s in the lowest power mode under ideal conditions.
I rocked a similar Shimano mid-drive and battery setup and found that I could get close to that range in the lowest power mode, but that I wound up in medium power more often to save my legs some effort. Expect closer to 50-75% of the published range on medium levels of pedal assist in real world conditions.
The hardtail Triumph Trekker GT gets a RockShox Paragon fork upfront with 65 mm of suspension travel and rolls on Schwalbe Energizer Green Guard 27.5 x 2.0 tires. The Trekker GT also includes a set of Shimano Deore M600 hydraulic disc brakes, LED lighting, a set of full-length fenders, kickstand, pannier rack, ABUS Proshield rear wheel lock, and a Selle Royal Vivo saddle.
The nice combination of components and the Shimano drive system end up boosting the price to a rather tall £2,950 including VAT, or about US$3,700. The Triumph Trekker GT is now available in the UK, EU (except for Germany and Austria) and the US. Availability in Asia is “still to be defined.”
