BMW’s “Mega City Car” In The Works

BMW Electric City CarR&D is producing and selling fuel efficient city cars all over the world in order to keep up with the raise in gas prices. BMW itself is also planning on doing this exact same thing . BMW’s CEO Norbert Reithofer confirmed this week that they will be working on a new ‘mega city car’.

This new car will have a whole new look and two powertrains. One of the cars will be given motivation with the help of standard combustion and the other one will be completely electric. The electric car will of course meet all of the requirements with the California mandate that must be set up and met by 2012. This mandate requires that it be a fuel cell or battery powered car that can travel up to 200 on one single charge.

It’s also worth mentioning that the BMW CEO specifically pointed out that it meets California regulations, signaling that the vehicle would be available Stateside. There is still no word regarding which of BMW’s three brands would be used for the vehicle, but we’re still very sure it won’t be a Rolls Royce.
