BMW G310GS Tourer is heavily inspired by its larger siblings F700GS and R1200GS; it shares engine with BMW G310R and produced at TVS' plant BMW Motorrad is targeting affordable adventure tourer market with an all-new bike. Dubbed as BMW G310 GS, the new mini adventure tourer finally came out of cover and was showcased at the EICMA 2016 in Milan. This aggressive and rugged looking adventure tourer bike will enter the Indian market very soon. BMW G310 GS has been designed taking inspiration from the German company’s range of GS bikes, specially the F700GS and the larger R1200 GS. The Indian two-wheeler market is growing rapidly, and with changing time, demand for premium and unique bikes is increasing. BMW Motorrad being one of the key players in premium two-wheeler market, cannot ignore such a huge emerging space. The German two-wheeler manufacturer is also preparing to launch BMW G310R in India, which has been designed and developed at its Munich base in Germany, and being manufactured in India. To keep its manufacturing costs lower and the pricing aggressive in India, BMW Motorrad tied up with TVS Motor Company and is now exporting the bike. The G310R is being manufactured at TVS’ Hosur plant, and the adventure tourer F310GS is also being built at the same plant. Both are widely appreciated for their premium quality, fit and finish. The brand will emphasise the same for our market as well. The BMW G310 GS shares its power source with the upcoming G310R. In the adventure tourer bike, the engine could have been made to produce some extra power and torque as well but it didn't turn out to be the scenario. The GS in the bike’s name mean ‘Gelandestrass’, which translates to 'go anywhere, road or mountain'. With this bike the German two-wheeler manufacturer is targeting budding adventure enthusiasts, and also first time adventure tourer buyers.
