BMW launches F 450 GS assembled at TVS Hosur plant
BMW Motorrad is rolling out its new F 450 GS in India this April, making it an entry-level addition to its GS lineup.
Built locally at TVS's Hosur plant, this bike packs a 420 cc parallel-twin engine with 48hp and 43 Nm of torque, solid numbers for anyone looking to hit the open road without breaking the bank.
F 450 GS weighs 178kg
The F 450 GS keeps things light at 178kg and borrows sharp quad-LED DRLs from its bigger sibling, the R1300GS.
It features BMW's Shift Assistant Pro for clutchless gear shifts and an Easy Ride Clutch (standard on the Trophy variant) for smoother rides.
Four variants are available globally, and we might see them all here too.
While official prices drop at launch, it's expected to land near ₹5 lakh, pretty tempting for a BMW adventure bike.
