Along with the insane concept roadster, the German showcased two other models as well

The Frankfurt Motor Show is one of the most talked-about events in the world of automobiles, especially for cars. From the Audi RS6 Avant super-wagon to the unusually attractive BMW X6 Vantablack, there were a lot of cars which stood out. But BMW didn’t just bring a really dark car and a bunch of concepts with it, the Bavarian manufacturer showcased some motorcycles as well, which made us motorcyclists quite happy.

BMW also showcased its flagship electric scooter, the C Evolution. It’s not exactly the fastest BMW two-wheeler right now, but it can do 128kmph, which is pretty good for a max-scooter.
