BMW C1-E Concept

BMW C1-E Concept

BMW C1-E is what a reliable, environment-friendly and extremely efficient single track vehicle for city traffic. It is distinguished by a remarkably high level of active and passive safety and is propelled by an electric motor.

The BMW C1-E implements excellent security for its rider. This is guaranteed by the safety cell with the renowned roll-over bar which dynamically spans the rider seat in union with the energy-absorbing impact element at the nose end. An extra unique feature is that the C1-E rider wears a seat-belt.

The concept vehicle displays brand ideal sheer driving fun and obviously differentiates itself from typical scooter looks.

BMW C1-E Concept

The electric motor used has been invented for city use and is based on parts made by the company Vectrix. The motor gets its power from a lithium-ion battery and therefore holds enough power for mastering most inner-city traffic riding with ease. BMW C1-E could also be equipped with an efficient, low-emissions internal combustion engine.

The benefit of two-wheeled transportation is that it gives a great occasion for adjusting the flow of traffic in urban locations.
