Coming back to the BMW iVision Dynamics Concept, the electric car is a 4-door Gran Coupe that will have a range of 600 kms. The sleek sedan will get from 0-100 kmph in just 4 seconds and on to a top speed of over 200 kmph. The concept car takes inspiration from the BMW Concept Next that debuted last year and according to sources will stay true to this design when it makes it to production in the near future.
