BMW Pays Tribute To M1

BMW celebrated 30 years of their beloved M1 at the Concorso d’Eleganza at Villa d’Este. And what better way to celebrate than to create a new concept car that is based off of and pays tribute to the M1. The M1 Hommage was created with a mixture of an aggresive and wide stance with a few modern design techniques.

Hydrogen 7 To Take Away Gasoline

BMW created the original Hydrogen 7 to run on both gasoline and hydrogen. The hydrogen part of the V12 engine contains -253° Centigrade liquid hydrogen that can run for 125 miles. The gasoline part of the tank can hold up to 19.5 gallons of fuel that can last up to 310 miles. This makes it more convenient for consumers to use the gasoline more than the hydrogen.
