On the surface, conserving the environment and maximizing performance seem like two disparate goals. But at BMW, they have achieved the seemingly unachievable of developing environmentally-friendly vehicles which do not compromise on performance.
This is the philosophy behind the development of BMW concept cars like the new high-performance electric car with ActiveE technology. The BMW Concept ActiveE is an implementation of the principle that efficiency augments performance. BMW's first all-electric vehicle is the ultimate in performance. The predicted acceleration from zero to 60mph will be in less than 9 seconds, and even in real-world conditions, this BMW concept car is expected to manage 100 miles on a single charge. It goes without saying that there will be zero CO2 emissions. The new-gen electric car, the ActiveE has been inspired by the 1 Series and has a striking design as well.

Car-2 Car Communications coming to the Future BMW'S
Labels: bmw dealer chicago, bmw technology, BMW'S, Elmhurst BMW
What is the Car-2-Car communication? C2C is the exchange of information and data between vehicles through visual and audio interfaces. To name one of the most common examples, basically is a car comes at a confusing road in front or a barrier, and it needs to stop, the vehicles will send a signal to a following car announcing them of the situation ahead, through a buzzer or a visual signal displayed on the windshield.
This of course applies to other situations such as traffic jams, snow and icy roads, accidents and road blocks.
The technology is still in its early phases and multiple standards and requirements need to be met, starting with the WI-Fi technology that is going to be used. The key a successful Car-2-Car communications system is for all the automakers to use the same standards, that would assure a compatibility between vehicles, cheaper costs and future system updates and improvements being rolled over to all the cars.
It is clear that such technology has endless possibilities and it will change the way drivers interact on the road, but hopefully the technology will not become proprietary. Recently, Volkswagen began testing the Car-2-Car technology and the results are promising.
