BMW Motorrad India Announces Price Hike From January 2026

BMW Motorrad India has officially announced a price hike of up to 6 per cent for all its bikes are on sale in India. The revised prices will come into effect from January 1, 2026, impacting both locally manufactured and completely built unit (CBU) models sold in the country.

Commenting on the development, Hardeep Singh Brar, President and CEO, BMW Group India, said that the Indian Rupee’s sharp and sustained depreciation against major global currencies such as the US Dollar and the Euro has continued to put pressure on the company’s cost structure. He explained that this prolonged forex impact has led to a rise in input costs, including raw materials and logistics, making a price correction unavoidable.

Brar added that the upcoming price revision is a strategic step aimed at maintaining business viability in a challenging economic environment. According to him, the planned hike will help ensure “necessary profitability and continued value generation” for both BMW Motorrad India and its dealer partners, while allowing the brand to sustain its premium standards and customer experience.

BMW S 1000 XR price in India

BMW Motorrad currently has one of the most diverse premium two-wheeler line-ups in the Indian market. On the locally assembled front, the brand offers models such as the G 310 RR and the electric CE 02, which cater to younger buyers and urban riders. The company’s CBU portfolio is far more extensive and includes adventure tourers like the F 900 GS, F 900 GSA, R 1300 GS and R 1300 GSA.

The performance-oriented range features models such as the S 1000 R, M 1000 R and the flagship M 1000 RR, while cruiser and heritage offerings include the R 18 Transcontinental, R 12 and R 12 nineT. Touring enthusiasts can choose from motorcycles like the R 1250 RT, K 1600 B, K 1600 GTL and K 1600 GA. BMW also retails premium scooters such as the C 400 GT and the electric CE 04 in India.

With this price revision, BMW Motorrad joins a growing list of manufacturers adjusting prices amid rising global and domestic cost pressures.
