TVS Motor Company and BMW Motorrad have hit a major milestone as their partnership crossed 2,00,000 motorcycles in total production since the alliance began in 2013. Along with this achievement, TVS has officially started building the TVS–BMW F 450 GS at its Hosur plant, making it one of the most important updates from the brand this year.
This double milestone shows how the partnership has grown stronger over the years. It also marks the beginning of a new phase where TVS–BMW are ready to move into bigger and more capable adventure motorcycles designed for India and global markets.
TVS–BMW Production Milestone
Since the start of the TVS–BMW partnership, the companies have successfully built a strong image in the sub-500cc premium bike space. Popular models born from this collaboration include :
- BMW G 310 R
- BMW G 310 GS
- BMW G 310 RR
These motorcycles are not only sold in India but are exported to more than 100 countries, proving the global trust in “Made in India” machines.
Crossing the 2-lakh manufacturing milestone reflects :
- Reliable quality from TVS’s production
- Strong global demand for BMW bikes made in India
- A partnership that continues to grow every year
TVS’s leadership called this achievement “a new era” for both brands, highlighting how India is becoming a major player in global motorcycle manufacturing.

TVS–BMW Collaboration
The collaboration first focused on lightweight, single-cylinder 310cc motorcycles meant for daily use and occasional long rides. Over the years, the companies built strong engineering teamwork, better production efficiency and large export numbers.
Now, with the BMW F 450 GS, the partnership is entering the mid-size adventure motorcycle segment. This is a big step up because this segment attracts riders who love long-distance touring, comfort, and advanced features.
The F 450 GS will take forward the legacy of BMW’s famous GS lineup and is the natural successor to the G 310 GS. BMW choosing India to build this motorcycle proves their confidence in TVS’s quality and capability.
TVS–BMW Export
Thanks to years of consistent performance, TVS–BMW bikes have already reached riders in over 100 international markets. With the F 450 GS entering production at the Hosur plant, the bike will now :
- Serve Indian customers
- Be exported worldwide
- Strengthen India’s role as a premium bike manufacturing hub
Since the motorcycle is made in India, it can be priced more competitively while still offering world-class engineering. This is a big advantage for global riders who want a powerful adventure bike without spending the heavy premium usually seen in this segment.
BMW F 450 GS India Price & Launch
BMW has not yet revealed the official price for India. But auto industry experts expect BMW to price it aggressively to attract Indian riders who want to upgrade from smaller bikes.
Expected highlights :
- 420cc twin-cylinder engine
- Modern adventure-bike suspension setup
- Suitable for touring and highway rides
- Built in India → more competitive pricing
Reports suggest the launch may happen in early 2026, once testing, approvals and dealership preparations are completed. If priced right, the F 450 GS will compete strongly in India’s fast-growing adventure motorcycling segment.
TVS–BMW Hosur Plant
The Hosur plant has been the backbone of the TVS–BMW partnership. It has successfully produced hundreds of thousands of BMW bikes with global standards. Now with the F 450 GS, the plant’s role becomes even more important.
Why Hosur matters :
- Efficient and cost-effective production
- Skilled workforce
- Proven quality with G 310 series
- Ability to handle bigger and more advanced bikes
By manufacturing the F 450 GS in India, BMW can offer :
- Better pricing
- Higher availability
- More export opportunities
- Stronger global presence for TVS–BMW bikes
This clearly shows BMW is committed to the “Made in India, For the World” approach.
