BMW Motorrad India has announced a price increase of up to 6% across its entire motorcycle range, effective from 1 January 2026. The adjustment comes in response to ongoing currency fluctuations and rising operational costs.
Hardeep Singh Brar, President and CEO of BMW Group India, explained the rationale behind the decision. He noted that sustained pressure from foreign exchange rates, particularly the Indian Rupee's sharp depreciation against the US dollar and Euro, has affected the company's operations for several months. Additionally, the costs of raw materials and logistics have continued to rise, necessitating the price adjustment.
The price revision will apply to BMW Motorrad's diverse product portfolio in India, which includes two locally manufactured models: the BMW G 310 RR and BMW CE 02. The company also offers a range of premium motorcycles imported as completely built units (CBU), spanning various categories from adventure touring to sport bikes and touring cruisers.
To support customers during this transition, BMW India Financial Services continues to offer customized financial plans. These include attractive monthly installment options, reduced interest rates for select models, and flexible end-of-term opportunities, aimed at maintaining accessibility for prospective buyers.
The price increase reflects broader market challenges faced by automotive manufacturers in India, where import-dependent businesses have been particularly affected by currency volatility and global supply chain dynamics.
