Artist Renderings of the BMW i10 - First of the MegaCity Vehicle

BMW Megacity vehicle is less than three years away, but the rendering game has already begun. Courtesy of Autoexpress UK, we have the first rendering of what they label as BMW i10. Part of a new BMW sub-brand, the Megacity lineup will be focusing mostly on electric vehicles, including two and three-wheeler models.

The vehicle in the drawing gets its inspiration from the 1-Series, but it could be mistaken for a miniature X6. The i10 is expected to use a powertrain very similar to the ActiveE concept that was show at the Detroit Auto Show back in January. The five-seater will be similar in size to the VW Golf, but the rear-wheel-driven car will be fully electric.

A lot of development on the Megacity vehicles will take place at the recently announced BMW plant in Moses Lake, Washington.

Warning - Autoexpress renderings have never had any basis in reality. They pull them from their nether regions.
