Chris Bangle on the Future of Personal Mobility
CHRIS BANGLE ON THE FUTURE
OF PERSONAL MOBILITY
We want to live in cities admired for their pedestrian-friendly streets and efficient transport corridors. Yet we are constantly challenged getting from A to B and being on the move is plagued with concerns about time, our state of mind and our carbon footprint.
How we solve the current issues facing our urban environments is an issue Chris Bangle is passionate about. Bangle's innovative, highly successful and at times controversial sixteen years at BMW proves he is more than capable of steering change through complex industrial contexts.
Now as an independent designer Chris Bangle will provide his unique insights into current and future trends in mobility, what will enable and hinder change in new automobiles and his planned role within this emerging world of eco-friendly mobility trends.
CHRIS BANGLE AND ASSOCIATES (ITALY)
Chris Bangle is one of the most famous car designers of our times, recognised for shaking the established status quo with his 'flame surfacing' and his radical take on car design. In March 2009, after 16 years, Bangle announced his retirement from BMW. Bangle is now operating out of his private studio Chris Bangle & Associates, whilst continuing his passion for public speaking and education.
