If you know me, you know I love cars. I love driving them, racing them, and writing about them. I love the thrill of speed, the sound of the engine, and the feeling of freedom. But I also love motorcycles. And scooters. And anything that can get me from point A to point B in a fun and efficient way.
That's why I'm so excited about the BMW CE 02, the latest electric two-wheeler from the German automaker. It's not a motorcycle, it's not a scooter, it's something in between. It's a compact urban commuter that combines the best of both worlds: agility, simplicity, and style.
The BMW CE 02 was unveiled at the Munich Motor Show in September 2023, and it's expected to hit the market in early 2024. It's part of BMW's strategy to expand its electric portfolio and cater to younger and more urban customers. It's also part of BMW's vision to create a sustainable and connected mobility ecosystem that integrates vehicles, infrastructure, and services.
What Makes the BMW CE 02 So Special?
The BMW CE 02 is not your typical electric two-wheeler. It's designed to be a versatile and customizable machine that can adapt to different needs and preferences. It's also designed to be a fun and easy ride that anyone can enjoy, regardless of their experience level.
Here are some of the features that make the BMW CE 02 stand out:
- It has a minimalist and futuristic design that blends elements of a motorcycle and a scooter. It has a flat seat, a low handlebar, a round headlight, and a digital display. It also has a modular storage system that allows you to attach different accessories, such as bags, backpacks, or speakers.
- It has a powerful and efficient electric motor that delivers 15 horsepower and 90 Nm of torque. It can reach a top speed of 56 mph and a range of 56 miles on a single charge. It also has a fast-charging battery that can be fully recharged in just one hour using a standard household outlet.
- It has a lightweight and agile chassis that weighs only 264 lbs and has a wheelbase of 51 inches. It has a single-sided swingarm, a belt drive, and 15-inch wheels with disc brakes. It also has an adjustable suspension system that lets you choose between different ride modes: Comfort, Sport, or Eco.
- It has a smart and connected interface that connects to your smartphone via Bluetooth or NFC. It allows you to access navigation, music, phone calls, and other apps on the digital display. It also has an integrated camera that records your rides and uploads them to the cloud.
