The Zinoro 1E is actually genius when you really think about it.

Here is an entry electric vehicle primed and ready for the worlds largest luxury car market. And a major projected growth country for electric mobility.
These cars for now will be restricted to China. Global markets could follow but possibly not within the next few years.

This is also one of the reasons why the new X1 has been brought forward and is testing as we speak ahead of its premiere in 2015.
This segment is hot at the moment as global sales of the current X1 testify to. A new X1 will allow BMW to quickly regain the momentum with an all new car with minimal sales dip.

Another interesting move in the compact premium segment is potential in cross overs offering high performance but with a smaller footprint.
A high performance X1M would be an interesting move as core competitors will offer the Audi Q3RS and the Mercedes-Benz GLA 45AMG.

Returning to now.
A ltd edition BMW X1M as a run out model is certainly interesting...
