01 / REVIVAL 001

THE ICON RETURNS.

BMW built an icon.

For nearly half a century, there was no second generation.

REVIVAL 001 imagines what should come next.

02 / REVIVAL 001

DESIGNED TO BE AN M1.

The goal was not to replace the character of the original M1, but to move it forward.

The proportions, wedge architecture, low cabin, strong rear shoulders and unmistakable mid-engine stance remain central to the design.

Everything else is reinterpreted for a modern supercar.
