Eco Factor: Zero-emission vehicle to be propelled by electricity.

After completely a year’s worth of electric vehicle testing with Mini E, the BMW group is planning to start rolling out its first production EV dubbed the “Megacity” in 2013. The Megacity is expected to be a 5-seater vehicle in the size class of the VW Golf.

The vehicle will have a rear-mounted motor as well as a rear wheel drive. The company is planning to use extensive amounts of carbon fiber that will make the Megacity much lighter and more efficient. The lightweight vehicle will have a range of 160 miles.
