BMW's profilation of this bike |
Behind every new movement there is also a story. An idea turns into a concept study, a concept study turns into an electric scooter ready for series production. Here we relive the path from Concept C to the C evolution. And one thing is for sure – the story will continue. On two wheels. For tomorrow’s urban mobility. |
