BMW i Vision Circular concept teased
Futuristic BMW i3 replacement said to be fully recyclable thanks to advanced new materialsThe BMW i Vision Circular concept it be unwrapped at the Munich motor show next week that's claimed to be a 100 per cent recyclable car designed for the year 2040.
Set to capture the ethos of the circular economy, the BMW i Vision Circular is claimed to embody the German brand's desire to become the "most sustainable manufacturer for individual premium mobility".
Said to reduce waste in manufacturing, the BMW concept car is made entirely from materials that have already been used in other applications or are 100 per cent renewable.
Out of all the new materials employed in its creation, all can be recycled.
It looks like a spiritual successor to the BMW i3, with a short, squat stance and minimal front overhangs.
The first preview of the concept also shows that the i Vision Circular will get a light and airy cabin with large glazed areas and at least two seats.
Despite being unlikely to ever transition to production car reality, the i Vision Circular concept is said to help preview BMW's next-generation 'New Klasse' vehicles that will introduce a huge increase in recycled materials.
BMW has already declared that come 2030 the average CO2 emissions per kilometre driven for its vehicles will be half that of 2019 levels.
