The 420cc parallel-twin liquid-cooled engine produces 48hp at 8,750rpm and 43Nm at 6,750rpm, paired with a 6-speed gearbox. BMW\u2019s Shift Assistant Pro for clutchless upshifts and downshifts is standard from the Exclusive variant. For this test, we had the top-spec variant that gets BMW\u2019s Easy Ride Clutch.BMW F 450 GS: AccelerationDuring our test, the road conditions were wet.AccelerationTime (seconds)0-40kph1.55s0-60kph2.57s\u00a00-80kph3.88s0-100kph5.72sFor the acceleration test, we were riding the bike in Road mode with the traction control turned off. We launched the bike manually instead of using the Easy Ride Clutch for a quick launch off the line. The bike offers potent performance in the mid range and acceleration tapers off as the revs climb close to the redline. The F 450 GS achieved the 0-100kph sprint in 5.72 seconds, which is a quick timing.\u00a0BMW F 450 GS: Roll-On AccelerationThe bike makes 48hp at 8,750rpm and 43Nm at 6,750rpm.Roll-On AccelerationTime20-50kph (2nd Gear)1.81 seconds30-70kph (3rd Gear)3.04 seconds50-80kph (4th Gear)2.95 secondsIn our roll-on acceleration tests, the bike took 1.81 seconds to get from 20-50kph, 3.04 seconds from 30-70kph, and 2.95 seconds for the 50-80kph run. In the city, it is tractable, able to make quick overtakes effortlessly and the Easy Ride Clutch makes commutes with a lot of traffic a breeze.\u00a0BMW F 450 GS: BrakingStrong braking performance with sharp feedback.BrakingDistance60-0kph16.52 metresThe F 450 GS features disc brakes at both ends with dual channel ABS. The feedback at the lever is sharp and in our tests, it took just 16.52 metres to come to a complete stop from 60kph. The tyres are also really grippy and inspired confidence, despite the road being wet.BMW F 450 GS: Specifications and priceThere are a total of three variants including Base, Exclusive and GS Trophy.Engine420cc, twin-cyl, liquid-cooledPower48hp at 8,750rpmTorque43Nm at 6,750rpmGearbox6-speed with ERC (Easy Ride Clutch)Fuel capacity14 litresKerb weight178kgSeat height845mmBrakes (F\/R)310mm disc \/ 240mm discTyres (F\/R)100\/90-R19 \/ 130\/80-R17The bike is priced starting at Rs 4.70 lakh for the Base, Rs 4.90 lakh for the Exclusive, and goes up to Rs 5.30 lakh for the GS Trophy variant (ex-showroom prices).\u00a0<\/p><\/div><\/li><li  style=\"padding: 15px 0 25px\" class=\"rss_item\"><div class=\"rss_image\" style=\"width:150px; height:150px;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.autocarindia.com\/auto-images\/lamborghini-revuelto-miura-60-homage-image-gallery-440422\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\" noopener\" title=\"Lamborghini Revuelto Miura 60 Homage image gallery\" style=\"width:150px; height:150px;\"><span class=\"fetched\" style=\"background-image:  url('https:\/\/asset.autocarindia.com\/static\/image-galleries\/images\/20260807_123615_ba387ff2.jpg');\" title=\"Lamborghini Revuelto Miura 60 Homage image gallery\"><\/span><amp-img width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/asset.autocarindia.com\/static\/image-galleries\/images\/20260807_123615_ba387ff2.jpg\"><\/a><\/div><span class=\"title\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.autocarindia.com\/auto-images\/lamborghini-revuelto-miura-60-homage-image-gallery-440422\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\" noopener\">Lamborghini Revuelto Miura 60 Homage image gallery<\/a><\/span><div class=\"rss_content\" style=\"\"><small>by <a href=\"\/\/www.autocarindia.com\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"www.autocarindia.com\">Autocar India<\/a> on August 8, 2026 at 10:31 am <\/small><p>Lamborghini has revealed the Revuelto Miura 60 Homage, a limited-run special edition that marks 60 years of the iconic Miura.

Global CEO Gernot D\u00f6llner said he reviewed Audi\u2019s all-electric strategy after taking charge and decided that the company needed a more balanced product and powertrain mix to address the varying pace of EV adoption across markets.\u201cWhen I joined Audi, there was an all-electric strategy in place, which was one of the first things I reviewed,\u201d D\u00f6llner told Autocar India in an exclusive interview. \u201cWe found a more balanced strategy between plug-in hybrids, especially important for Europe, combustion engine and electric.\u201dGlobal EV sales downturn lent ICE powertrains more timeThe slower-than-expected pace of EV adoption in several global markets has extended the relevance of combustion engines and plug-in hybrids. Audi expects to retain a focused combustion-engine and plug-in-hybrid portfolio, particularly for SUVs.Audi Q3 PHEVThe company has recently completed a major investment cycle covering new petrol and diesel engines, plug-in hybrids and battery-electric vehicles designed to meet Euro 7 and other global regulations.\u201cFor sure, the majority of our investment will be in battery electric. That\u2019s a given,\u201d D\u00f6llner said.Audi will continue to invest selectively in combustion engines, including efficiency improvements and transmission technology, but D\u00f6llner expects the pace of innovation to be much faster in EVs.Audi RS5 plug-in hybrid powertrain\u201cThe combustion engine is fairly mature. It\u2019s at the very end of a 100-year innovation cycle, and battery electric is still at the very beginning, to be honest,\u201d he said. \u201cThe dominant part of our investment will definitely be on the battery-electric side.\u201dElectric remains Audi\u2019s leading technologyAudi\u2019s decision to retain combustion engines and plug-in hybrids does not alter its long-term direction towards electric vehicles.\u201cElectric is, for Audi, still the leading technology,\u201d D\u00f6llner said. \u201cIt\u2019s our main priority to step by step become more electric.\u201dPrototypes of upcoming Audi A2 e-tronAudi currently has four battery-electric model lines globally and expects to increase this to five by the end of the year, with some available in more than one body style. The company will, however, tailor the powertrain mix to individual regions. Plug-in hybrids will be particularly important in Europe, while the requirements of the US market will influence Audi\u2019s future combustion-engine and PHEV portfolio, especially for SUVs.In India, Audi\u2019s immediate focus remains on petrol and electric vehicles. Diesel is not part of its current plan. The case for plug-in hybrids will depend partly on whether they receive any benefit under the India-EU FTA. New electric products are also planned for India.Audi Q6 e-tron\u201cFrom what I know, we also have decided to enter with new products in the electric segment in India,\u201d D\u00f6llner said.Audi has decided to assemble an electric vehicle in India, Autocar India learns, although the model and launch timing are still being worked out. The move from fully imported EVs to local assembly is now a question of when, rather than if.The company was among the first luxury carmakers to enter India\u2019s EV market with models such as the e-tron, e-tron Sportback, e-tron GT and Q8 e-tron. High import duties, however, restricted their reach and affected their resale-value proposition.Audi Q6 e-tronThe Q6 e-tron is among the products being studied, but Audi has not decided which EV will be assembled in India. The selected model will need to offer the right combination of volume, pricing and suitability for local conditions.Audi believes electric SUVs make more practical sense in India because their ground clearance is better suited to local road conditions. Sedans have not been ruled out, but SUVs offer a more practical proposition for battery-electric vehicles in the country.Regional focus to shape future productsThe broader powertrain approach is part of D\u00f6llner\u2019s effort to make Audi more responsive to the requirements of individual regions.\u201cAudi has to act much more regional,\u201d he said. \u201cThe times where we had a one size fits all, and we then bring it to China, just extend the wheelbase and do the same car, that doesn\u2019t work anymore. We have to listen carefully to the markets.\u201dThe Q9 is the first clear example of that approach. Conceived around the requirements of American customers, it will be the first Audi to make its market debut in the US.Audi Q9\u201cThe Q9 is a perfect proof point of a car. The biggest Audi we\u2019ve ever built,\u201d D\u00f6llner said. \u201cThat car would not be there without the American market.\u201dIndia does not yet generate the volumes required for Audi to develop country-specific models. Local requirements covering ground clearance, suspension, tyres, weather, dust and fuel quality are, however, fed into its global development process. The introduction of new models in India is also expected to move closer to their global launches, helping Audi benefit from the interest created when a vehicle is revealed internationally.D\u00f6llner said the improvement in India\u2019s manufacturing and automotive technology has changed how the country is viewed within the global industry.Audi Q9\u201cIndia is also an excellent proof point. It\u2019s really unbelievable what the car industry has developed in India and what level of perfection and technology products are delivered,\u201d he said.\u201cIn the past, there has been this strong European automotive industry, and the world has turned around. Now we have a very dynamic Chinese market, a growing and rising Indian automotive industry. The US is a story of its own.\u201d\u201cWhat keeps me awake at night is if we are able to change fast enough,\u201d D\u00f6llner said. \u201cWe have to speed up.\u201d<\/p><\/div><\/li><\/ul> <\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-23","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wp.adups.app\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/23","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wp.adups.app\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wp.adups.app\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wp.adups.app\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wp.adups.app\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=23"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/wp.adups.app\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/23\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":42,"href":"https:\/\/wp.adups.app\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/23\/revisions\/42"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wp.adups.app\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=23"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
