1995 BMW Just 4-2 Concept

Just 4/2 was built as the result of an internal corporate competition and it particularly impressed BMW’s technical director, Wolfgang Reitzle. Today he is chairman of the company’s Rover subsidiary which originally sponsored Powell at he Royal College of Art.

Powell’s inspiration was a no-frills car like the Caterham Seven. The project took about a year to complete, approval having been given in the autumn of 1994. It went through the obligatory development process under the watchful eye of Technik’s supremo, Mario Theissen, and involved 100 engineers throughout the company.

The design process was similar to that applied to BMW’s mainstream models, so a clay model was initially produced and there followed computer work and crash simulation. The vehicle itself took a mere, but hectic, 12 week to assemble.

BMW was actually curious to find out the concept’s performances and took it out for a spin, managing to reach 62 mph (100 kph) from a standstill in a brisk six seconds before hitting a top speed of 112 mph (180 kph).

It goes without saying the Z21 motorcycle on four wheels was built just for fun and there weren’t any plans to put the concept into production. All things considered, there’s a lot to like about this special project from BMW Technik GmbH, except maybe for the rather childish “Just 4/2” nickname.
