Why does this story matter?
The changes in the 2023 version of the BMW C 400 GT are restricted to the addition of a new color option. It should rack up decent sales in the overseas markets. The vehicle will arrive here as a completely built unit (CBU), but would be bought only by a handful of buyers because of its hefty price tag.
The scooter is offered in three colors
The 2023 BMW C 400 GT has a headlight-mounted front apron, a USB charging port, a raised transparent windscreen, a stepped-up seat, and an upswept exhaust. The maxi-scooter packs an all-LED setup for lighting, a TFT instrument console with BMW Motorrad Connectivity, and rides on cast aluminium wheels. It is offered in Exclusive Callisto Gray Metallic, Triple Black, and Alpine White shades.
It is fueled by a 34hp, 350cc engine
The new BMW C 400 GT runs on a 350cc, water-cooled, single-cylinder engine that churns out a maximum power of 34hp and a peak torque of 35Nm. The mill is linked to a CVT gearbox.
It gets telescopic front forks
In terms of safety equipment, the BMW C 400 GT is equipped with disc brakes on both the front and rear wheels, along with BMW Motorrad ABS and ride-by-wire throttle for improved handling on the roads. Suspension duties on the maxi-scooter are taken care of by 35mm telescopic forks on the front side and dual shock absorbers with adjustable preload on the rear end.
