The BMW C1, produced from 2000 to 2003, was an innovative and unique motorcycle designed for urban environments. Unlike traditional motorcycles, the C1 featured a full-body enclosure, resembling a scooter with a protective shell. This design provided enhanced weather protection and a more comfortable ride, making it suitable for a wider range of conditions. The C1 was powered by a 125 cc single-cylinder engine in the base model and a 200 cc single-cylinder engine in the C1 200, offering a balance of performance and fuel efficiency. It incorporated safety features such as a roll-over bar, a three-point seatbelt, and an optional ABS system. The C1's unique design and features aimed to attract riders seeking a balance between motorcycle handling and car-like comfort, making it a compelling option for commuting and urban exploration.

Despite its innovative design and features, the BMW C1 faced challenges in the market. The combination of its high price point and unusual appearance ultimately hindered its commercial success. The market was not yet prepared for a vehicle that straddled the line between motorcycle and car, and the C1's price tag made it a difficult sell against more established scooters and motorcycles. Furthermore, the C1's design, which incorporated a safety cage, led to a more complex manufacturing process, adding to its cost. Despite its technological advancements and innovative approach, the C1 was discontinued after a relatively short production run. However, its legacy as a pioneering vehicle that explored the boundaries of motorcycle design continues to influence the development of future models and the ever-evolving landscape of urban mobility.
