Evolution
BMW introduces the production C evolution at the 2013 Frankfurt Motor Show in Germany. The C evolution produces a steady 15 hp (11 kW) but can produce a peak 47 hp (35 kW) from it’s liquid cooled electric motor. This gives it better acceleration than some 600 cc maxi scooters, says BMW, and an electrically limited top speed of 75 mph (120 km/h).

BMW
The 2010 BMW R1200RT is updated from the 2005 version through a mild fairing revision, new switchgear and a new dual overhead cam (DOHC) Boxer engine (seen previously on the 2010 BMW R1200GS). While the engine is the headline change, it does not outperform the previous version in either max horsepower or torque. This makes the 2010 update an evolutionary change. Which is fine with us, since the R1200RT was already at the top of the touring bike market.
