News BMW is updating certain models for 2027.

The start of summer is when BMW unveils updates to its current models. These sometimes include new color options, a few technical upgrades, and changes to equipment packages or accessories.

A large part of the lineup is affected, which leads to speculation about a redesign of certain motorcycles—for which we’ll have to wait until the fall and/or EICMA.
This update does not apply to the GS models, which are too new to require any changes. However, there’s no mention of the R18. Will the highly anticipated R20 with a 2-liter boxer engine be part of the lineup in 2027?
