The 2018 BMW R 1200 GS xDrive Hybrid represents a bold step into the future of adventure motorcycling. While retaining the 1170cc boxer engine that delivers 125 Nm of torque at 6500 rpm, this model incorporates a hybrid system boosting total output to 170 hp at 7750 rpm. This significantly enhances acceleration and overall performance. The six-speed gearbox ensures smooth power delivery across the rev range. The xDrive Hybrid differentiates itself with a regenerative hub braking system in addition to the standard single disc front brake with ABS. This system captures energy during braking, improving efficiency. The seat height is 850mm, and the fuel tank capacity is 20 liters. The BMW Motorrad Telelever front suspension maintains the GS's renowned handling characteristics. This motorcycle is targeted towards environmentally conscious riders seeking enhanced performance and innovative technology. The hybrid system not only improves fuel economy but also provides an extra boost of power when needed. It's an ideal choice for those who want to experience the future of motorcycling while retaining the versatility and adventure capabilities of the GS platform.
