At IAA Mobility 2025, BMW Motorrad unveiled one of the show’s most unconventional exhibits: the Vision CE concept. This electric scooter offers a fresh take on city travel, pairing easy movement with a strong emphasis on safety.

The standout feature is a distinctive protective cage inspired by buggies and motorcycle frames. It is designed to shield the legs, hips, and shoulders, and to keep the ride feeling safe even without a helmet or dedicated gear. BMW positions the Vision CE as urban freedom without the usual constraints: you can show up in a business suit, light casual wear, or athletic apparel and still stay protected.

The design leans into minimalism and tech appeal. Contrasting materials, aluminum, and a restrained black-and-white palette with red accents create a futuristic presence. The cage and composite components not only make the Vision CE instantly recognizable but also help reduce weight, while integrated lighting keeps it visible in traffic.

The technical package remains under wraps, but BMW emphasizes innovations: the scooter can balance itself without a kickstand and adapt to different use scenarios. The Vision CE is conceived as a versatile platform—anything from a daily urban runabout to a base for fun and customization.

Inside, the concept doubles down on simplicity: conventional switches give way to pared-back, tactile controls, and a digital display serves up all key data. The team describes the cockpit as guided by smart, purpose-led functionality, with every detail carefully considered.

BMW Motorrad presents the Vision CE as more than transport, positioning it as a statement about new freedom in the city. It blends aesthetics, safety, and individuality, allowing users to tune the look and equipment to their lifestyle. The idea feels well aligned with dense urban rhythms, where low-effort convenience often determines whether people choose to ride at all.
