The 'motorrad e' is an electric maxi
scooter concept by BMW, designed to offer the motorcycle-like
performance of the company's 2-cylinder combustion engine motorrad
scooters with completely electric technology. the 'motorrad e' is on
exhibition at the frankfurt international motor show.
the vehicle's body features a
sporty shape, with a twin-tipped front spoiler, low cut windshield, and
foreshortened rear. light alloy wheels mimic the style of the BMW i
electric car concept vehicles, while the metals and acrylic glass used
for the body include a range of contrasting colours.
conventional side mirrors are
replaced by two rear video cameras that feed to two LCD monitors
installed in the cockpit. a central digital display depicts speed,
gasoline usage, and other relevant data.
the vehicle charges via standard
household power sockets, attaining a full charge in under three hours
and therein providing a driving range of 100 kilometers. these numbers
are made feasible by intelligent battery management and brake energy
recuperation systems, built alongside performance technology that lets
the 'motorrad' equal the acceleration rates and continuous output
characteristic of a combustion engine maxi scooter.
