TVS Motor Company has rolled out 100,000 units of BMW Motorrad’s 310cc series of motorcycles from its Hosur facility in Karnataka.

The Indian manufacturer of two-wheelers and three wheelers had signed a cooperation agreement with BMW Motorrad in 2013 to develop and manufacture sub-500cc motorcycles for the international market.

The partnership had brought three new products to the market that are based on the 310cc platform, which includes the BMW G 310 R, BMW 310 GS, as well as TVS Motor Company’s TVS Apache RR 310. The three models are produced by the Hosur facility.
