BMW Motorrad has launched the M 1000 XR in India at Rs 45 lakh (ex-showroom), exclusively in the M Competition variant. The M 1000 XR marks the third addition to BMW's esteemed M lineup in the motorcycle lineup, drawing inspiration from both the current S 1000 XR and the S 1000 RR models. As part of its 2024 upgrade, the S 1000 XR receives notable enhancements, including heightened performance, refined ergonomics, a sleeker profile, and an expanded array of standard and optional features.
Mr. Vikram Pawah, President, BMW Group India said, 'The all-new BMW M 1000 XR is an M bike through and through. It embodies everything that the most powerful letter in the world stands for: leadership, supremacy and playful, effortless dominance. This bike successfully completes the equation for an incomparable riding experience of M-like performance and XR-like long-distance capability. The all-new M XR maximizes everything - your riding experience, your endurance and, whenever you want, your adrenaline.'
