BMW show us a glimpse of the near future with the release of the BMW i Vision Dynamics.
[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]It have been said that while others are discussing the future of technology in motor vehicles, BMW are already creating it. This has been proven true at the 67th 2017 IAA Cars event hosted in Frankfurt, where BMW have released their vision of the very near future-The BMW i Vision Dynamics.
This futuristic concept car is a four-door Gran Coupe with an impressive electric range of 600 km – in more simpler terms, one could make a trip from Durban to Johannesburg on just one full charge. Performance is not left behind with this kind of efficiency either, as the BMW i Vision Dynamics boasts a 0-100km/h time of just 4 seconds.[/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/2″][vc_single_image image=”3725″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” onclick=”link_image” image_hovers=”false”][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]The BMW i Vision dynamics showcases what the future of electric BMW has in store. Harald Kruger, Chairman of the Board of Management at BMW SG said “At the BMW Group, the future of electric mobility has already arrived”.
This statement is backed up by the fact that BMW currently have more electric vehicles on the road than any competitor, and release of the i Performance Dynamics shows BMW’s commitment to the future of electric mobility. By 2025, BMW will offer 25 models with an electrified drive system, with 12 of these models being pure electric.

Of course, BMW have retained the iconic kidney grill theme and with the i Performance Dynamics, they steal the show in terms of front end design.The Kidneys are large,bold and enclosed and while they are a nice visual element, they also act as intelligent surfaces. The rear also possesses a smooth, clean finish which is inline with the vehicle’s electric appeal. One may notice a similar design theme to the upcoming BMW 8 Series, which also emphasises the direction of BMW’s design language.
