Simple is the acronym for sustainable and innovative mobility product for low energy consumption, a vehicle concept combining features and advantages of both motorcars and motorcycles. The concept owes its protective passenger compartment to motorcars whereas the streamline shape, the two occupants seated one behind the other and the uniquely driving experience are naturally owed to motorcycles. Whilst researching ideas for futuristic urban mobility combined with the prerequisite of reduced consumption (less than 2l /100 km eqals more than 120mpg) and emission values (50g CO2 /100 km), the BMW Group spawned this concept vehicle featuring the extremely low weight of 450 kg and aerodynamic drag properties (0,18 drag coefficient), which of course also fulfilled all the BMW Group premium brand demands: sheer driving pleasure, innovative vehicle configuration, technology integration and a sense of comfort and spaciousness.

    Absolutely fantastic. This vehicle completes the line of thought of tilting vehicles. It combines the advantages of both, cars and motorbikes. I would love to take it for spin but why does BMW not go into mass production? Aren't we facing global warming and, consequently, don't we need energy efficient vehicles with a low carbon footprint? Sure we need them but we also want to have fun. This concept vehicle combines both!!! GET IT ON THE ROAD BMW!!! Show that you are a LEADER not a FOLLOWER...

    its like everyone that owns a car already has two seats in it. if you wanted a car with one seat. youd have to pay some more money just do get another vehicle. so you would pay more for less. very useless lol. i cant be the only once that sees the stupidity in this lol

    i wonder just how stupid the announcer is. the reason why people drive cars that have more then one seat is so the have the option have more people without having to buy 2 separate vehicles. with his idea everybody still needs a car that can car more then one. so what would you rather do? buy this and never be able to have company with you or get a bigger vehicle that can carry more then one. with his idea its actually morrow expensive and even less useful. how sad

    Both are show concepts, but Acabion is better.
