BMW F 450 GS India Launch Today: Here's What to Expect
The two-wheeler division of the German luxury automaker BMW Motorrad India is all set to launch the F 450 GS motorcycle in India today. With the launch of the F 450 GS the automaker will enter the mid-capacity adventure touring segment in India.
The BMW F 450 GS is expected to be underpinned by a modular platform which can serve as a base for its future models as well. The F 450 GS is manufactured in India at TVS Hosur facility, which will cater to the domestic market as well as exports.
BMW F 450 GS: Design
The BMW F 450 GS follows the design direction seen on the larger R 1300 GS, with typical GS styling adapted to a smaller format. It will sport a 19-inch front and 17-inch rear wheel setup with dual-purpose tyres. Suspension duties are carried out by upside-down front forks and a rear monoshock.
BMW is expected to offer the motorcycle in four trims - Basic, Exclusive, Sport and GS Trophy. The GS Trophy variant is likely to feature tubeless wire-spoke wheels and off-road-focused tyres.
BMW F 450 GS: Engine
The BMW F 450 GS will be powered by a 420cc parallel-twin, liquid-cooled engine producing 48bhp and 43Nm of torque; this engine is mated to a 6-speed gearbox. A slipper clutch and bi-directional quickshifter are expected to be standard across variants.
BMW F 450 GS: Features
The upcoming F 450 GS is expected to come equipped with multiple electronic rider aids like traction control, ABS, riding modes and engine drag torque control. It is also likely to feature a TFT display with smartphone connectivity and navigation support.
BMW F 450 GS: Expected Price & Rivals
The F 450 GS is expected to be priced at around Rs 4.99 lakh (ex-showroom). Following its launch it will compete with the likes of KTM 390 Adventure, Royal Enfield Himalayan 450 and Honda NX500 in the Indian market.
