Overview

Electro - mobility is the number one topic when it comes to our mobility in the future. What does the vision of the BMW Group, Germany’s main pioneer in the field, l ook like? For the first time providing extensive insight into BMW’s workshop of ideas, this volume presents the multi - faceted concept for sustainable and visionary mobility right up to autonomous driving. In the spring of 2008, a think tank of engineers, d esigners, trend researchers, and financial experts met on a factory floor of BMW’s parent plant in Munich to rethink mobility. This volume traces the exciting venture in its complex development, while also looking at the future. A main focus is on the major challenges of our time — climate change, scarcity of resources, megacities — and the solution approaches: technological innovations, networked mobility, and the use of renewable materials. Autonomous driving plays a particularl y important role. Terrific close - ups and design drawings present all models from the BMW i3 and the BMW i8 to the BMW i Vision Future Interaction.
