- 7 month, 10 days ago
BMW Motorrad India has announced a price increase of up to 6 per cent across its motorcycle portfolio, with revised prices set to take effect from January 1, 2026, citing sustained cost pressures and foreign exchange volatility impacting its operations in India.The price revision will apply across BMW Motorrad India's range, covering both locally manufactured models and fully imported motorcycles, and reflects continued financial pressures rather than any changes to product specifications, features, or equipment levels offered to customers.Hardeep Singh Brar, President and CEO of BMW Group India, said, "Pressure from forex due to Indian Rupee's sharp depreciation against US dollar and Euro has not eased for several months now and the input costs of raw materials and logistics have been impacted. The planned price hike measure will ensure necessary profitability and continued value generation for the company as well as our dealer partners."BMW Motorrad India's current lineup includes locally produced offerings such as the BMW G 310 RR and BMW CE 02, alongside a wide range of imported motorcycles spanning sport, adventure, touring, and cruiser segments sold through authorised dealerships.Imported models expected to see revised pricing include motorcycles such as the BMW F 900 GS, BMW R 1300 GS, BMW S 1000 RR, BMW K 1600 GTL, BMW R 18 Transcontinental, and the BMW C 400 GT, among others listed by the manufacturer.The company stated that the magnitude of the price increase may vary depending on the model and its cost structure, with motorcycles imported as completely built units typically more sensitive to currency fluctuations and international logistics expenses.Revised prices will be applicable at dealerships nationwide from the start of the new calendar year, affecting both existing bookings pending delivery and new purchases made on or after January 1, 2026.BMW Motorrad India's decision aligns with similar price adjustments announced by other two-wheeler manufacturers, as rising input costs, logistics expenses, and the steady decline of the Rupee against the Dollar and Euro continue to influence pricing across the Indian automotive market.
