The BMW Simple is similar to the Nissan Land Glider, except that the BMW has a tricycle configuration, and its angled surfaces make it look like an stealth fighter. The coolest thing about it, however, is how it rolls.

The back wheels have an hydraulic system that makes the car/bike/mobilethingie carve the road as if you were surfing or snowboarding down a slope. According to BMW, the driving experience is quite unique and exhilarating. The BMW Simple weighs about 990 pounds, does 118 miles per gallon, going up to 62mph in under 10 seconds, and reaching a top speed of 124mph.

Sadly, don’t expect to see this vehicle yet. BMW says they have no plans to start manufacturing it yet. Too bad. [Autoblog]
