- For more than 90 years, the 2-cylinder boxer engine has been a key element of the BMW Motorrad identity, in both technological and visual terms. But as the BMW Group consistently pursues electrification, the question arises as to what a BMW motorcycle might look like that is electrically powered? And how would it reveal itself at first sight to be a BMW? One possible answer to these questions is provided by the BMW Motorrad Vision DC Roadster, a highly emotional naked bike with electric drive.
“The boxer engine is the heart of BMW Motorrad - an absolute stalwart of its character. But BMW Motorrad stands for visionary zero-emissions vehicle concepts, too. In view of this, one question that arises is: what would happen if we were to replace the boxer engine with an electric motor and the required battery? The Vision Bike shows how we’re able to retain the identity and iconic appearance of BMW Motorrad in distinctive form while at the same time presenting an exciting new type of riding pleasure,” explains Edgar Heinrich, Head of Design BMW Motorrad. “After all: anyone who’s ever tried it out in practice knows very well that riding on two wheels is just as exciting when its electrically powered! The high level of torque right at set-off makes for breath taking acceleration. This almost brutal power delivery creates a whole new experience of dynamic performance. And the BMW Motorrad Vision DC Roadster puts a face to this experience.”

I dont know but sitting position looks bit uncomfortable
Weird riding position. Also why add music, let us listen to the swishing sound of the bike

Parabéns
Clearly this is a prototype that will never see the light of day. That riding position would require that you're going 80mph all the time to take all the weight off the handlebars. And the cricket leg position, how long would that be comfortable?
i want this now
Hey BMW,send me one to put through its paces and do a full review of!!!
Could I get a few clips that aren't obstructed by trees?
hattar to show its a green approach lol
Prize?
Its a boxer engine bike you can lean
What's wrong with this picture? A motorbike that's certainly not suitable holidays placed in an environment for holidays.
Needs gears then I’m in.
Electric vehicle don't need gears. The power is instantaneous. Just twist the throttle and you're gone.
Gears exist for internal combustion engines, because they're inferior to electric motors. They're an unnecessary complexity, add weight, and are a point of failure and additional maintenance on electric.
Powerful electric motor, check. Cool modern look, check. Space age extendable battery cooling inlets, check. Catwalk model with hair flick, check. Ridiculous seating position, er....check. Reminded me of when a full grown adult balances on a child sized donkey. BMW - Bike Man Wobbly?
Think BMW should start making kitchen appliances if that's what their future bikes will look like. Fugly!
