While many riders in Malaysia are awaiting the official announcement of BMW Motorrad’s entry-level G310 R, Motorrad Australia has announced the official sales price down under at AUD5,790 (RM17,431). This is reflective of BMW Australia’s positioning of the G310 R as a learner bike in its highly competitive market.
This compares against the 2016 BMW Motorrad G310 R’s asking price of 4,290 pounds sterling (RM22,122) in the UK, 5,350 Swiss francs (RM21,688) for Switzerland, and 4,750 euros (RM20,913) in Germany. No word has been forthcoming from BMW Motorrad Malaysia about what the pricing for the G310 R is likely to be for the Malaysian market.
For comparison, the BMW Motorrad RnineT retails for AUD21,250 (RM63,974) in Australia, while it is priced at RM99,888 in the Malaysian market. If the G310 R were to be priced in the same manner in Malaysia, it should fall under the RM30,000 mark when it’s launched here.
Rivals to the 2016 BMW Motorrad G310R in Malaysia include the KTM 250 Duke at RM21,021, the Benelli TnT300 at RM20,129 and the Kawasaki Z250SL at RM15,389. As BMW Motorrad’s first small-displacement motorcycle in nearly 60 years, the G310 R comes with a 313 cc liquid-cooled single-cylinder engine that has a claimed 34 hp and 28 Nm of torque at 7,500 rpm.
Weighing in at 158 kg, and with ABS as standard, the G310R is designed by BMW to be marketed worldwide as its offering for the entry-level, learner-bike segment. Would you be interested, if it’s priced around the RM30,000 mark?
Cheaper than cbr250 and yzf 250?
Bmw Malaysia says no way
of coz laa, Aust ppl poor maa, we rich..
At rm30,000 for b full, better option are plenty for Indian beemer. Just forget it.
The citizens of Malaysia always get the worst deal.
Blood always suck dry by the government. Our car and
motorcycle prices always more expensive than other countries.
I hope BMW Motorrad Malaysia will price it around rm45k. People will still blame the government anyway for the high price.
Always is wrong , some merc is cheaper in bolehland than in tomyamland
Not only the G, dealer also suck dry maa..
those big bike usually price competitively if compare to other country.
If we don’t take currency into the calculation, most countries sell it below 5k in their respective country. When it comes to Malaysia, the price will be 5-6 times more. Where’s the logic?
If we don’t take currency into the calculation, iPhone should be RM600?
If you don’t take currency into consideration, you will be earning 2 mil a month, just like the Indonesian.
Nah…30k? Better get mt07
I hope it goes below RM25k.
lol why compare with rninet price? Why not compare with f800r which around 50k+?
And rninet not even same category, so much for motorcycles enthusiast OP
