Not-to-Distant Future of Driving and Being Driven

BMW has a new vision for the future of driving.  The Vision M Next concept is a hybrid-electric sports car that allows the driver to decide if they want to drive or be driven autonomously.  Through its Vision series of vehicles, BMW is striving to set the gold standard for sustainable, autonomous cars.  The Vision M Next and the previous Vision iNext are meant to spark discussions about what life could be like inside autonomous cars. BMW is also seeking to trigger valuable debate about future directions for the automotive industry.  BMW's Vision M Next is a pivotal new concept and a centerpiece of automotive conversation and debate about the future of driving.

New Technologies

The EV serves as BMW's vision of the future of sports cars and the future of its M Performance cars.  The concept has two future BMW driving modes:  Ease and Boost.  Ease enables the vehicle to take over and drive autonomously.  Boost is an assisted driving mode that has the driver in control of the vehicle.  BMW says that Boost also provides state-of-the-art, adaptive assistance that greatly improves the driver's skills behind the wheel.  

Tech Specs

The car is powered by a PHEV (plug-in hybrid electric) drive with electric motors at the front and rear axles.  It has electric all-wheel drive, all-electric rear wheel drive, and a 4-cylinder combustion engine that also sends power to the rear wheels.  The vehicle's performance is powerful.  It has 600 hp, can accelerate from 0 to 62 mph in 3 seconds and has an electric-only range on a charge of 62 miles.  Vision M Next is BMW's vision of an epic ride in the near future.  For more news stories like this, Daily Vehicle Briefing: 365 New Travel Vehicles
