Murse Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 http://jalopnik.com/#!5764585/new-bmw-brand-coming-monday "BMW will announce the official new sub-brand name on Monday. The project, dubbed "i" since its inception, will focus on electric and small vehicles. The first car will be the Mega City Vehicle, going on sale in 2013." WTF are you serious?

TTQ B4U Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 iThink someone should tell BMW that iAnything is overplayed since 2001. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ImUrOBGYN Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 iM not suprised and iDont care. Mercedes will follow suit. How is this a suprise, anyway? Manufacturers are all getting in on it. Hell, even Aston Martin will have a teeny car, aka a rebadged Toyota iQ. I won't take the time currently to get into details, but their reasoning is as sound an any. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turbospec29 Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 Aren't most manufacturers having to reach a minimum mpg for their whole line up soon by most countries? Something like a average of 35mpg by 2012? Maybe this is their way of doing it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hence Aston Martin will be selling a rebdaged Toyota iQ as the Cygnet: http://motorcrave.frsucrave.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/Aston-Martin-Cygnet1.jpg Yeah, that's not appealing AT ALL.
