BMW makes their cars on a diet with carbon fiber

BMW Cars have decided to diet to all of its cars, is known as the Blog Coach brand and is considering seriously to progressively many of their models end with the sole purpose of having the central cell in carbon fiber, which would that their cars are much lighter.

Although it is a good alternative to know that we have carbon fiber in their cars also creates certain risks and problems for the company, one of them is the theme of recycling.
However it may be that BMW Car Models would dare to turn their cars and perhaps become the first brand to be exclusive carbon fiber.

For now, the first car to start with a shift towards the carbon fiber is the megacity, which will feature large-scale technology. We're eager to see.
