BMW LINK: this ain’t your grandma’s scooter

Is it a cool scooter or a small motorcycle? The new BMW Motorrad Concept, LINK, is designed to be a cross between. By making this motorcycle smaller it is designed to navigate congested city streets like a scooter. The electric drive allows for a lower seat, so you don’t have that driving-on-a-bar-stool posture typical of gas-fed scooters. In addition it has:

• A reverse gear, to aid in parking and other scenarios
• Under-seat storage for that funky headgear you insisted on getting
• Cut-away display for the cool built-in, on-board tech
