BMW's Vision Motorrad Next 100 motorcycle is built for superheroes
The BMW Vision Motorrad Next 100 is the motorcycle for superheroes of the future. In apropos marketing, the German automaker unveiled the concept vehicle yesterday in Los Angeles, land of blockbuster cinematic fantasy — and it delivers thrills.
The bike, like the Rolls-Royce and Mini concepts introduced earlier this year, is indeed radical in form and function. Its body is culled from a slinky carbon fiber shell that forms a menacing swoosh. A turn of the handlebars redirects the bike. It boasts zero carbon emissions and has incorporated driver assistance, a camera-based sensor technology, making it essentially the anti-crash motorcycle. One feature of this system is called the Visor, a set of spectacles that are controlled through eye movements. It also has a self-balancing system.
