Recently, according to overseas media reports, BMW CTO Frank Weber hinted that BMW may build a new pure electric sports car in the new pure electric platform Neue Klasse in the future. At present, BMW is still based on the latest version of the CLAR platform to build electrified products.
A few days ago, foreign media said in an interview with Frank Weber that BMW currently lacks a supercar product comparable to the BMW M1 of that year. Frank Webb replied that BMW could build a similar product on a new electric platform in the future. It is reported that the flagship model created by the Future Klasse platform will use four wheel motors, and in terms of charging, it will take only 5 minutes for the vehicle to be fully charged.
In addition, bmw CTO also said that in the future, BMW will also build a small-size model based on the Neue Klasse platform as a replacement for the BMW i3 that was previously launched. Today, the new BMW i3 is based on the BMW 3 Series, which has nothing to do with the previous i3 model. Therefore, it is likely that a small-size model based on the new platform will use a new name.
