Driving Report: BMW C Evolution: Cool, correct and very dynamic

More and more vehicles are under electricity. The first electric groat roller now brings BMW on the market. Now there is the C evolution for proud 15.000 EURO. Can such a price be justified at all?

Normally you can hear it from behind when you are leaning through endless autocolons – those scooter armada, which simply progressed faster in metropolises like Barcelona than any high-wed sports car. Quite different from the Leisertreter BMW C Evolution: He has almost silent his way through the city congestion. Purely electric, he makes the approximately 100 kilometers far thanks to three battery modules from the electric car BMW i3. Four driving modes allow the electricity pilot to choose the maximum range or breathtaking performance – to the breathtaking price of 15.000 EURO.

A lot of thrust, little sound

With a lot of thrust and little sound, the C Evolution is a dynamic eye-catcher in the city traffic, if he wins incredibly advanced and barely audible every traffic light start. 35 kW or 48 hp power sound proud of a scooter. But above all, the 72 Nm torque that lens the electro scooter catapulted. True dynamic jumps makes the 265 kilo vehicle from the stand after the smallest shoot at the handle. Then he fits into astonishment in addition to accelerating normal bikers in 2.7 seconds to 50 and 6.2 seconds to 100 km / h. Also in turn, the C Evolution on request still puts a shovel on it in his silent forward urge. Only between 100 km / h and the tip pace of 120 km / h the impulse flattens a little.

With its low center of gravity thanks to deeply placed battery modules, the power scooter Wieselflink also covers the highway and shines when overtaking with its lifness. In a journey at the fleet stream-dynamists only a little the driving noise up to 40 km / h. Then he sounds like a micro tram for both accelerating and delaying. About 35 km / h is the idiosyncratic noise in the wind. The wind protection is good to topspeed 120 km / h. The BMW has prescribed by severance, otherwise the power consumption would rise rapidly.

Emission free around the corners

But back to city traffic, in which the BMW C Evolution is emission-free and quiet around the corners or tagging through traffic jams. In this case, the pilot only monitors the expansive exterior mirrors, but offer very good views backwards. Brakes both on the left and right levers as well as by gas ways brings again used energy, because in the so-called recuperation, the electric motor acts as a generator and charges the batteries again.

8 kWh provide three of eight battery modules of the BMW i3. 6.3 of them are used, because the lifetime has a complete unloading is not possible. But even that is actually enough for about 100 kilometers range. Irrit the particularly economical "Eco Pro" mode with less pace and acceleration, should be up to 140 kilometers in it. We came in Barcelona with frequent acceleration orges to 7.4 kWh consumption, which would still rich for fleet 85 kilometers. Again, the batteries are after four hours charging time to household sockets.

Even with reverse gear

Even a reverse gear is on board to manipulate the stately scooter in a gradual pace about parocketing. Also large riders bring their legs well below, although the 78 centimeter seat height is also suitable for smaller pilots. The feet can be placed on a tread boiler either relaxed front or driving active backward. The C Evolution should be an alternative, especially in the city traffic, not to have to stand in a traffic jam.

Who from 15.If 000 euro feels quenched, should settle: Compared to a similar strong gasoline groats, the Strombayer saves every 100 kilometers about six euros of energy costs for the drive. He brings all 10.000 kilometers at least 600 euros back in. Since the rated output of the C Evolution is only 11 kW / 15 hp, the driver’s license class A1 respies for him. The old class 3, if you do it before the 1. Acquired April 1980. That could facilitate the electrification of broader masses. A good argument for BMWS new urban mobility. The lithium-ion batteries should be around 1.500 load cycles survive – that would be at C Evolution up to 150.000 km and a handsome scooter life.
