400cc BMW scooter?
Think I would rather have a genuine Kymco one.

The interview in MCN made vague references to BMW having a 'new partner'. Of course, you think of Kymco, but you wouldn't describe that partnership as particularly new. Maybe its someone from mainland China rather than Taiwan!

Very good point. I haven't heard anything about another partner

Double post

Not sure about the 400cc bit there. The BMW i3 electric car can have a 650cc twin motorbike engine as optional range extender.

It wouldnt be the for the i3 first release, that was already well on its way.

Don't worry - I was forgetting which thread I'd posted it in! Advancing years and fading memory you know....
