BMW Motorrad Definition CE 04: a futuristic electric scooter prospectus [PHOTO]

BMW Motorrad Definition CE 04 represents a translation almost close to the series of the idea linked to BMW Motorrad Concept Link, which places a symbiotic connection between movement and interaction, thinking about urban commuters. An electric vehicle characterized by a recognizable and distinctive design, as well as connectivity systems.

Distinctive aesthetics

Decisive, clean, extended and perspective lines, highlighted by the two main combined colours: a surface finish in Mineral White metallic, then an area matte black which highlights the core of the medium. It ranges from the front area to the rear area, embracing the front light clusters and the dynamic components. Technology is highlighted as part of the style. The panels do not entirely hide the side section in the rear area, extending like contained wing extensions allowing a look at the drive unit, taking into account cooling fins, shock absorber, timing belt and single-sided swingarm.
The headlights a LED which define a U-shaped design appear minimalist, while the lights behind them are integrated into the rear side panels as two C-shaped light elements, as reported. A vehicle visibly different from currently known scooters, with an elongated and low body, extended surfaces and a diagonally projected front area. The flat battery appears in the underbody, also functional from a dynamic point of view, considering the center of gravity of the vehicle, connected to a new storage solution that is illuminated and can be opened laterally, therefore there is also access for storing a helmet and other objects.

Electric mobility

Bearing in mind the BMW Motorrad Concept way back in 2011, already offering an idea of ​​the potential of the “electromobility” urban, then the BMW C Evolution prototype in 2012 and the subsequent launch of the C Evolution series vehicle in 2014; with BMW Motorrad Concept Link a further idea of ​​what the future could be was provided “zero-emission single-track urban mobility” and the BMW Motorrad Definition CE 04 represents a new continuation in the path.

Dedicated technology and clothing

Another highlighted aspect is the interaction between the vehicle and technical clothing in terms of comfort, experience and safety. Who drives through the BMW Motorrad Definition CE 04 is connected to the environment via your smartphone, considering a large display from 10,25 inches, the largest seen on a scooter so far as reported, which represents a communicative interface between the digital and analogue worlds, as reported.
Speaking ofclothing of the rider designed exclusively for the BMW Motorrad Definition CE 04, we mention a parka in waterproof high-tech material with flexible protectors in a light color and a casual cut, characterized by a high collar and a large hood. Styled with dark motorcycle jeans, sneakers and a white open-face helmet.
Among the peculiar aspects are the luminous inserts integrated into the sleeves and hood which improve visibility in traffic and can be turned on and changed in color via sensors tied to the sleeve. The inside pocket of the parka then has an inductive charging field for smartphones, as indicated.
