BMW’s i Division and Designworks Studio teamed up with the help of stuntman Peter Salzmann to test out an Electric Wingsuit prototype. The concept is a project to showcase BMW’s electrification expertise. The wingsuit is made up of 2 parts, the suit and the electric propellers that spin at 25,000 rpm and make roughly 20 horsepower for up to 5 minutes. BMW claims that the electric propellers can get the wingsuit airborne at a top speed of 186 mph. Learn more at Autoblog.com
