Simple is not simple BMW looks

Who said that BMW could not make a vehicle with a bad shape? Friday (9 / 10) and then, the BMW display at the Museum of vehicles they have ever presented in 2005. In accordance with a simple shape, a vehicle that is named Simple is an abbreviation of the Sustainable and Innovative Mobility Products for Low Energy consumption.

Inspired by motorcycle, the BMW design creations 'magic' does not mean not having
excess. This vehicle has a cabin that serves to protect passengers from wind and weather and insulate the noise from outside the cabin. BMW Simple 110cm wide and is designed for two passengers.

Three-wheel vehicles weighing 450kg which is driven by the engine-powered 36kW (48.3 hp) plus electric motor has an acceleration capability can be achieved 0-100km/jam within about 10 seconds thanks to a fantastic wind barrier of 0.18 cd.

He has such dynamic driving two-wheeled motorcycle that allows riders to turn a broken thanks to intelligent technology that diusungnya hydraulics.

In contrast to other vehicle concepts in which only the passenger cabin that moves sideways during cornering, on this concept which determines the slope pengemudilah the right and follow the vehicle automatically, so this concept provides a more natural driving.

This sophisticated concept will only activate the hydraulic device in certain circumstances. For example if the vehicle is unstable when started running very slow, stop, or in extreme conditions such as drifting. Beyond that, such as Simple as that relies on a motorcycle laws of nature and the strength of gravity giroskopis which does not require any energy when cornering.

The advantage of this technology will not make passengers feel the slightest pressure laterally force (lateral force), especially when changing direction quickly, like a pure motorcycle.

Because the weight is only 450kg plus wind resistance plus a very small gasoline engine and the combination of electric motors, BMW Simple registration only requires power 6kW (8hp) just to be able to move (the equivalent of 0.7 liters of gasoline). As a result the vehicle stealth bomber-style F-117A Stealth Bomber is only 2 liters of gasoline needed to travel more than 100km.

So once again, do not underestimate the bad way BMW Simple. Because behind 'his casing' bad, entrenched line of technology that is not owned by any other vehicle.
