German luxury motorcycle brand BMW Motorrad has launched the new BMW M 1000 R supersport roadster in India with an introductory ex-showroom price starting at ₹33.50 lakh.
The motorcycle will be available as a completely built-up unit (CBU) and can be pre-ordered at all authorised dealerships across the country starting today. Deliveries of the high-performance roadster are scheduled to begin from May 2026.
BMW Emphasises M Performance DNA
BMW Group India president and CEO Hardeep Singh Brar said the new model represents the brand’s performance-driven M lineage.
“The new BMW M 1000 R is a powerful expression of our M genetics, where a high-performance superbike meets a dynamic roadster. It is meticulously crafted for those who demand uncompromising performance both on the streets and the racetrack,” he said.
He added that the motorcycle delivers the unmistakable four-cylinder roar and is designed for riders who constantly push the limits of performance and precision.
Design Focused On Aerodynamics And Sportiness
The new BMW M 1000 R features an aggressive roadster design with ultra-compact proportions and a distinctive performance-focused aesthetic.
It gets a dual-flow LED headlight inspired by the RR models, along with the M logo integrated in the air intake. The motorcycle also features M Winglets, which generate aerodynamic downforce and increase front-wheel load by around 11 kg at 220 km/h, enhancing stability at high speeds.
High-Performance Engine And Acceleration
The new BMW M 1000 R is powered by a 999 cc water-cooled inline four-cylinder engine that produces 210 hp (154 kW) at 13,750 rpm and 113 Nm of torque at 11,100 rpm.
The roadster can accelerate from 0–100 km/h in just 3.2 seconds and reach a top speed of 280 km/h.
It features BMW ShiftCam technology, which optimises torque and power delivery across low, mid and high engine speeds. The engine also incorporates titanium valves, lightweight cam followers and optimised camshafts for improved performance.
Advanced Electronics And Rider Features
The motorcycle comes equipped with a 6.5-inch TFT instrument cluster featuring an M-themed start-up animation and redesigned rev counter display.
Other features include OBD interface for M GPS Datalogger, adaptive turning LED lights, electronic cruise control, heated grips, rear USB charging socket and lightweight M battery.
Customers purchasing the BMW M 1000 R will receive a standard three-year unlimited-kilometre warranty, with options to extend coverage up to the fourth and fifth year.
Additionally, BMW India Financial Services offers customised financing solutions, including options to finance rider gear and accessories.
The motorcycle is also backed by a 24×7 roadside assistance package covering breakdown support and towing services.
