The automotive market is going through a stage where different manufacturers are getting directly involved to contribute in reducing CO2 emissions on the planet. One of them is BMW, which has provided this sector with electric and hydrogen-powered vehicles; however, it does not forget about sustainable mobility at micro level.
Precisely, one of the “green” creations of the German brand is an electrified tricycle called BMW Concept Dynamic Cargo going beyond the limits to carry loads, something unthinkable when using a vehicle of this type for short and specific routes, but from Munich are betting to explore.
The tricycle arrived after having launched an electric scooter, so now the European manufacturer decided to take a step forward in small-scale urban mobility, but adding a load factor that may mark a milestone for this type of mobility, which often goes unnoticed by large companies.
For several years, bicycles have served as micro transport, but now with the BMW Concept Dynamic Cargo, a jump to the next level through a modular platform added to the rear that can be adapted to different needs through a bunch of accessories for specific situations.
Transporting goods, packages, children or even use it as a lounge chair while contemplating nature. All this has been able to blend into a single means of transport created by BMW, in order to keep transmitting a sense of comfort and lightness when driving it, despite all the things it could carry in the rear area.

BMW Concept Dynamic Cargo in Detail
The BMW tricycle’s front part functions as a conventional bicycle, thanks to the characteristic design in this type of vehicle. Now, the radical change comes at the back with the cargo area connected to the front by a pivoting axle for stability and comfort on straight or curved roads, to make the driver feel as comfortable as possible.
Now, the tricycle is able to move freely by an electrified powertrain providing propulsion to the rear pair of wheels once the vehicle driver pedals to initiate movement.
