BMW Poised To Have New Self-Driving Flagship In Showrooms In 2021

The addition to the automaker's i subbrand, which currently includes the i3 EV and i8 plug-in hybrid, will be able to drive itself in many situations, CEO Harald Krueger said in comments prepared for the company's annual shareholders meeting in Munich today.

The sedan will have a new interior and offer a cutting-edge electric powertrain, Krueger said.

The new car is the centerpiece of BMW's effort to defend its position in the luxury-car market from challengers such as Tesla Motors.

Wow this is one ugly concept. As for self-driving cars, I would not want to be an early adopter of that technology, especially when 99% of the other cars on the roads are not self-driving. It will be interesting to see the real-world experience of the first cars and whether they are truly safer.
