The simple concept
Loading...
Uploaded by BMW on Oct 9, 2009
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...

I m so sick and tired of all those damn "concept cars" that NEVER EVER get produced! Get your ass in gear (literally!) big-business car-industry, and JUST DO IT for fucks sake!!!
For all who dont wanna keep getting bullshitted look up the "Jet Car". Already availlable on the market - so no more excuses for the producers of all the gasoline-guzzling dinosaurs we see day by day!
The technology is THERE! We aint talking "future" here!
