BMW 2020 S 1000 XR Latest Updates

BMW brought its updated litre-class sports-tourer, the S 1000 XR, to EICMA 2019. The XR has been one of the most popular models of the Bavarian brand. The new updates provide a fresh lean look to the large tourer. Gone are the asymmetric bulb-type headlights, replaced by S 1000 RR-inspired LED illumination units.

Much like its sportbike twin, the S 1000 XR continues to be powered by a 999cc inline four-cylinder motor. Max power remains the same at 165PS and even peak torque rating of 114Nm is unchanged from before. Even though the XR misses out BMW’s ShiftCam tech, the loss of 10kg over its predecessor should make the new model a bit livelier.

Electronically adjustable suspension units from ZF are found at both ends, with BMW-badged Hayes brake calipers bringing the XR to a grinding halt. We can expect the new S 1000 XR to arrive on our shores around March 2020. We expect a marginal hike in price for the new S 1000 XR in India, probably starting at 18.5 lakh (ex-showroom India) for the new Euro 5/BS6-compliant model.
