I had never wanted a car that looked ordinary and dull. I always wanted something that was out of the ordinary and something that stood out from the rest. At the same, I am very particular about cars that save energy and that which are not gulping down gallons of crude oil.
If this is how you think as well, you might like the concept BMW Lovos (Lifestyle of Voluntary Simplicity) which has been the work of BMW and Anne Forschner, a student at the German Pforzheim University. The concept comes with scale shaped solar panels that make your car look like a futuristic dinosaur and also see all the reflective solar light and convert that into energy.

The public transit systems can look forward to a very stylish set up now courtsey the latest collection of street furniture that comes from BMW DesignworksUSA. Called the Metro40, this one has especially designed for Landscape Forms, which is a Michigan based manfacturer of site furniture for outdoor spaces.
The designers were motivated by a desire to help promote transit centers as livable by revamping their complete image. We are quite impressed with the design pattern that is stylish and at the same time very sleek and sturdy too.

The Frankfurt Motor Show (to be held in September this year) is no less than a Mecca for luxury cars. In fact, many roadsters see their first light of the day at this very event. We hear that this time around, BMW might just showcase the new green concept it has been fastidiously working on. It is a sports car (we were not expecting anything less than that) based on the M1 Homage Concept Car that was unveiled at the Villa d’Este Concours in Italy last year.
The concept car will be a two-seater with a middle engine coupe that will flaunt several eco-friendly features that have been designed especially for the BMW’s EfficientDynamics Engineering Program. So far, the maker are being very hush-hush about their treehugger project. Even the car’s fuel usage (hyrbid, electric or deisel) is still a mystery.

German studio Gate 11 has designed an awesome body for the BMW Concept Car. The car seeks to answer question about future ideas about luxury, aesthetics, efficiency, eco-friendliness, and many other things. The body almost seems to have been made out of a fabric though one can’t really be sure.
The design seeks to understand alternatives to cuts and lines and yet be geometric in the process. The idea is to create a car that can adept to situations while driving. The video shows and seeks to explain why fabrics might just be the right material to be used for a car’s exterior and how one can ignore metal exteriors, thereby reducing the stress on natural resources.

If you love owning a BMW then you might just want to share the joy of driving such a brilliant car with kid too, or it might serve as a good initiation into worshipping your favorite speedster! The market is abuzz with talks of the new BMW Baby Racer II which is a whole bagful of fun for kids both outdoors as well as indoors.
A lot of thought and design has gone into making this little wonder. Thick tires hold the toy vehicle without making any noise and also overcome small obstacles with a lot of ease just like an adult would do in his/her original BMW car.

When we talk about BMW we mean elegance, style and immense power. This time around, they have an agenda, in fact a secret agenda to create 2,3, and 4 wheel i cars. These electric cars are designed in collaboration with the Bath University and they claim it is not ‘rubbish’.
One of the secret concept is called the ‘Clever Concept’. It is a three wheeler and hence you would not need to wear a clumsy old helmet. It is mostly an urban vehicle which can easily wade through city traffic and yet allow the user mobility and freedom.
