BMW Motorrad updates its portfolio with the CE 04, an all-new zero-emission futuristic concept.<\/p>\n

BMW’s motorcycle division unveiled its latest addition as a part of its #NEXTGen 2020 multi-vehicle, multi-platform showcase. With redefining the scooter segment in mind, BMW developed the Definition CE 04, an electric scooter featuring a cutting-edge design.<\/p>\n

Lately, we have had the opportunity to witness automotive brands coming up with concepts and production-ready Next-Gen vehicles that are everything we imagined to be sci-fi, if not more. Like it or not, the e-revolution is definitely underway.<\/p>\n

BMW Motorrad<\/a> doesn’t plan to fall behind either; its development team has already come up with revolutionary motorcycle concepts such as the \u201cVision DC Roadster\u201d or the \u201cVision Motorrad Next 100\u201d with self-balancing features.<\/p>\n

Regarding the Definition CE 04, it appears that the scooter design has been inspired by the Concept Link vision BMW showcased in 2017.<\/p>\n

The futuristic scooter stands much lower than the brand’s other scooters<\/a>, thanks to the electric motor instead of the classic ICE engine, claims Alexander Buckan, head of BMW Motorrad\u2019s vehicle design division.<\/p>\n

The battery pack is integrated with the electric motor placed flat under the body, offering a better gravity center. This battery setup has given the design team the freedom to include a storage compartment that can be accessed easily from the side, with enough space to store a helmet.<\/p>\n

As seen in the pictures, the scooter gets a bulky fascia and an industrial themed rear with minimalistic decals. The seat, however, does not appear to be that comfortable or meant for long rides.<\/p>\n

The concept might gain some cool features such as a 10.25-inch screen linked with the rider\u2019s smartphone, letting the rider access various information.<\/p>\n

Besides, BMW might also put forward bespoke riding gear and helmets, like the self-illuminated casual cut warm parka jacket and the bespoke helmet with CE 04 initials on it, as shown in the picture set.<\/p>\n

As of now, specifications are yet to be disclosed, and the manufacturer hasn’t confirmed if or when we’ll be able to get our hands on one either.<\/p>\n

More details to come.<\/p>\n
