The 2022 BMW CE 04: The Urban Electric
Contents
Will BMW end all gas-powered scooters now that they have introduced the CE 04 in the 2022 lineup? The European scooter market is stronger than in North America, but rising fuel prices and excellent urban mobility machines like this BMW CE 04 make a compelling case to change how we move about.
The “04” in the name is meant to hint at the 400cc scooters this bike takes aim at. Clearly, the BMW styling team had a heyday with the edgy design. Sitting down low in the chassis is a battery very similar to the ones used in the BMW iX vehicles. The electric motor is chassis mounted and combined with the battery takes up very little space, meaning the storage area is big enough to fit a full-face helmet.
The CE 04 can be charged at domestic sockets or a BMW Wallbox. With the optional quick charger you can charge the BMW CE 04 at the BMW Wallbox or on the go from 0% to 80% in around 65 minutes with the maximum charge current.
Standard features include LED lighting, a massive 10.25” TFT display with BMW Motorrad Connectivity, 3 ride modes, stability control, ABS brakes, even a Electronic reverse. If that isn’t loaded enough there is a long options list with goodies like heated grips.
The 2022 BMW CE 04 starts at $11,795 USD / $15,000 CAD.
