The BMW CE 04 gets new colors, new optional equipment
Launched in summer 2021, the BMW CE 04 swiftly established itself as a pioneering force in urban electric two-wheel mobility. This emission-free scooter has since maintained its position as the undisputed market leader in the segment for electric motorcycles and scooters, exceeding 11 kW output.
Designed specifically for this niche, this premium electric scooter combines innovative technology with exhilarating riding pleasure, all manufactured at the BMW Group plant in Berlin, Germany.
The CE 04 offers distinct variants to suit diverse preferences. Now, the Basic variant features a clean Lightwhite uni body, while the new Avantgarde variant stands out with Gravity blue metallic matt and striking Sao Paulo yellow accents, complete with a unique Pro seat and yellow-tinted windshield.
For a touch of elegance and enhanced comfort, the Exclusive variant boasts Spacesilver metallic paint, exclusive tapes, a larger windshield with integrated hand protectors, and a heated comfort seat with new upholstery. Increased weather protection and a comfortable seat are also available as ex-works options for other models, further customizing the ride.
Propelled by a liquid-cooled electric motor, the CE 04 delivers a maximum output of 31 kW (42 hp), enabling it to sprint from 0 to 50 km/h in just 2.6 seconds. Both the standard and reduced output (23 kW/31 hp) versions reach a top speed of 120 km/h, ensuring nimble navigation through city streets and main roads.
Its 8.9 kWh battery provides an ample range of approximately 130 kilometers (100 km for the reduced output version), making day-to-day urban travel and shorter leisure rides completely emission-free.
Charging the CE 04 is convenient, utilizing a household socket, wall box, or public station with a Type 2 charging plug. With the optional 6.9 kW quick charger, a full charge takes just 1 hour and 40 minutes, or a rapid 45 minutes to go from 20% to 80%.
Rider safety is paramount, featuring Automatic Stability Control (ASC) as standard and optional Dynamic Traction Control (DTC) for enhanced stability, especially when banking. Three standard riding modes (ECO, RAIN, ROAD) cater to varying conditions, with an optional “DYNAMIC” mode for an even swifter acceleration.
The scooter's stable suspension, robust tubular steel frame, and powerful disc brakes with standard ABS (optional ABS Pro for cornering) ensure smooth handling and a high level of ride comfort. A standard 10.25-inch TFT color screen integrates map navigation and extensive connectivity, eliminating the need for additional displays.
All-around LED lighting provides excellent visibility, with an optional adaptive Headlight Pro for enhanced night riding. With its future-oriented design, the BMW CE 04 truly merges transport and communication, offering a connected and exhilarating urban riding experience.
Currently, the BMW CE 04 is available in the Philippines with an SRP of PHP 895,000.
