Reviving a Classic Concept
BMW has always been known for pushing the boundaries of design and functionality, and their latest urban electric concept, the Vision CE, is no exception. Drawing inspiration from the enclosed C1 scooter of the early noughties, the Vision CE is designed to let you ride without the need for a crash helmet. This futuristic ride was unveiled at the IAA Mobility Show in Munich, and it embodies BMW’s commitment to making urban commuting more accessible.

Innovative Design Features
The Vision CE boasts a striking design that includes a large twin-beam metal tube composite rollcage, ensuring the rider’s safety and protecting the bodywork. Unlike the original C1, it lacks full windscreen or panelling, which means it may not shield you from the elements. However, with its car-like seating position and integrated backrest, the Vision CE offers comfort and stability while riding, thanks to a twin belt harness designed to keep you securely in place.
Embracing Eco-Friendly Mobility
At the heart of the Vision CE is BMW’s goal of promoting emission-free transport options for inner-city travel. Although it’s still uncertain if this innovative concept will go into production, it highlights an exciting shift in the way we think about urban mobility. Particularly intriguing is its self-balancing feature, allowing the bike to remain upright at traffic lights, which promises ease of use for riders. While details on this technology remain under wraps, it’s clear that BMW is set on revolutionizing how we navigate the urban landscape.
