The Active Tourer will definitely be another trailblazer from BMW. Otherwise all the efforts made by the Bavarian brand would've been in vain and we don't think that will be the case.
The future car will combine compact dimensions with an attractive, dynamic design, in the usual BMW way. Measuring 4,350 mm (171 in.) in length, 1,834mm (72 in.) wide and 1,560mm (61 in.) tall, the new concept is aiming at premium customers that desire a high level of comfort, a raised driving position and care about the environment.
Actually, the whole video seems concentrated around a healthy way of life and protecting the environment. The little girl plants a tree, the main protagonist goes swimming and skiing and everyone of his friends joins him in hiking trips.
All these subliminal messages seem to point out an active lifestyle and emphasize the versatility and functionality of the new car. Right at the beginning you can notice the main character takes a surfing board out of the car and in doing so he uses the 40:20:40 folding rear seats.
Overall, the Active Tourer concept is rumored to take the shape of a future 1 Series GT and will write a whole new chapter in the company's history. Based on previous rumors the new car will also have a hybrid drivetrain and will even offer its customers some all-electric range for when they're traveling short distances.
