Powerful single-cylinder drive with EU-5+ homologation and ABS Pro with DBC, DTC and EBC as standard.
The engine remains the proven single-cylinder engine, making 34 hp at 7,500 rpm and a maximum torque of 26 lb-ft. at 5,750 rpm. Power is transmitted via a continuously variable CVT transmission.
The BMW C 400 GT is now equipped with BMW Motorrad ABS Pro as standard, replacing the previously standard ABS. Thanks to ABS-assisted braking at a lean angle, ABS Pro offers more safety and stability when braking in turns. Optimal brake pressure is continuously calculated calculated input from a six-axis sensor and from a pressure sensor.
In addition, the new standard Dynamic Brake Control (DBC) function, linked to ABS Pro, offers an extra level of safety by controlling throttle input during braking. As soon as ABS detects that the front brake has been applied strongly and quickly, the system controls pressure build up, enabling controlled braking. If the throttle is opened during detected emergency braking, the system reduces engine torque, keeping braking more stable and braking distances to a minimum. EBC Engine Brake Control helps prevent rear wheel slip when the throttle is quickly released by monitoring rear wheel slip, depending on lean angle, and increasing engine rpms to maintain stability.
Dynamic Traction Control (DTC) and Engine Drag Torque Control (MSR) are also now standard. DTC, which replaces the previous ASC, has the added benefit of slip control while leaning. It compares rotation speed between front and rear wheels to detect rear wheel slip. If rear wheel slip exceeds limits, engine power/torque are reduced to maintain traction.
Connectivity — standard large, readable 6.5-inch TFT display. Navigation preparation and a 10.25” display for the BMW C 400 GT are optional.
The BMW C 400 GT comes with a large 6.5-inch TFT display as standard. The variety of information, display quality and, last but not least, user friendliness are unmatched. In conjunction with the BMW Motorrad Connected app, the display is linked to the multi-controller on the left handlebar and can be operated quickly, safely, and conveniently. Connectivity Pro, part of the optional Premium package, includes a larger 10.25” TFT display.
Convenient calling, listening to music and navigating while riding are all possible. If, for example, a smartphone and helmet are connected to the BMW Motorrad communication system via Bluetooth, media playback and telephone functions can be easily accessed using the TFT-display. These functions can be used without installing an app. If there is an active Bluetooth connection to a standard smartphone, the rider can enjoy listening to music while riding and charge the smartphone in the actively cooled storage compartment. In addition, the free BMW Motorrad Connected app offers practical arrow navigation directly via the TFT display.
This basic navigation is particularly attractive for riders who want to comfortably handle everyday traffic or short trips without additional equipment. Navigation preparation with a holder for the BMW Motorrad Connected Ride Navigator or the BMW Motorrad Connected Ride Cradle is available as an accessory (not in conjunction with the 10.25” display).
Greatly expanded storage space. New accessories such as 43.5 liter top case, body protector and hand guards.
The 2025 BMW C 400 GT now has more storage space than ever. Combined storage volume, between the front and under seat compartments is increased by as much as 12 liters. BMW Motorrad engineers have taken care to extract the most possible storage room from all three storage compartments. The under seat compartment has been enlarged by 23%, from 30.5 liters to 37.6 liters and can now accommodate a 15-inch laptop. The right-front storage compartment has been enlarged by 346%, from 1.3 liters to 4.7 liters and can now accommodate a 16 oz. bottle. The left-front storage compartment has been slightly enlarged and with the Connectivity package, part of the optional Premium Package, now includes smartphone charging and cooling.
With 43.5 liters of storage space, the new top case not only offers 13.5 liters more volume than before, but can also now accommodate a payload of 22 lbs. instead of the previous 11 lbs. It also features interior lighting and a USB-C charging port. A back cushion and painted side panels are available as options for the new top case. It is attached to the vehicle via a vibration-isolated luggage rack. New original BMW Motorrad accessories, such as body protectors and hand guards, round off the range of offers.
The BMW C 400 GT now also comes with a standard manually adjustable windshield and can be fitted with an accessory luggage rack.
BMW C 400 GT features lower seat height and a new Style Exclusive variant.
The BMW C 400 GT’s ground accessibility has been improved with a reshaped and lower seat (30.1 inch seat height vs. previous 30.5 inch seat height) and reduced leg arch reach (now 68.6 inches vs previous 69.1 inches) to provide greater comfort and improved ergonomics.
In addition to the standard Black Storm Metallic version with black seat, black wheels and black front brake calipers, the BMW C 400 GT is available in the new Style Exclusive variant.
The Style Exclusive BMW C 400 GT is finished in Diamond White Metallic and looks decidedly elegant. Gold wheels, and graphics, a black seat with embroidered gold emblem complement the gold front brake calipers. Ground lighting with a BMW logo projection or stainless-steel floorboard inserts round off the design.
