Overview

Introducing the 2024 BMW CE 04—an electric scooter that redefines urban mobility with a blend of cutting-edge technology and unmistakable BMW flair. Positioned at the intersection of style and efficiency, this modern two-wheeled marvel is crafted for the urban commuter who demands more from their ride. With a starting price of $12,195, the CE 04 offers a compelling alternative to traditional scooters, appealing to eco-conscious riders and tech-savvy enthusiasts alike. Its sleek design and innovative features make it a standout in the electric mobility market, promising not only to turn heads but also to elevate the daily commute into an experience to relish. At the heart of the CE 04 lies a permanent-magnet liquid-cooled synchronous motor that unleashes a commendable 42 horsepower, delivering peak torque of 62 Nm at a mere 1500 RPM. This powertrain ensures that the CE 04 accelerates smoothly and confidently, reaching a top speed of 120 km/h (74.6 mph) with ease. Its one-speed gearbox and belt final drive contribute to a seamless ride, allowing riders to focus on the journey rather than shifting gears. The scooter's lightweight steel double-loop frame, weighing in at 231 kg (509.3 pounds), enhances agility and control, making it a joy to navigate through bustling city streets or winding country roads. The 2024 CE 04 is not just about performance; it’s packed with advanced features that enhance the riding experience. Riders can choose from three distinct ride modes—Eco, Rain, and Road—to tailor their experience based on conditions and preferences. The integrated 8.5 kWh lithium-ion battery provides a range of up to 80 miles, with an efficient charging time of just 3.5 hours to 80% and a quick charge option that takes only 65 minutes. Additional tech-savvy perks include keyless ignition, an intelligent emergency call feature, and an electronic reverse function—redefining convenience in the world of electric scooters. With the CE 04, BMW has successfully combined functionality with a striking design available in an Imperial Blue Metallic finish, ensuring that it looks as good as it performs. **
