We learned some exciting news about BMW today. No, it isn't the release of a new vehicle. Instead, BMW is using its innovative nature to create aerodynamic wheelchairs for the Paralympics. This isn't the first time BMW stepped out of its comfort zone. In 2014, BMW designed a bobsled for the U.S. Olympics. Now the German automaker is working closely with Paralympic gold medalist Josh George to create an innovative wheelchair for this year's event in Brazil.

"...at DesignworksUSA, BMW’s global creative consultancy, Cracchiola has been leading a crew for the past year to build a better racing wheelchair, working with the U.S. Paralympic team to craft a faster, more comfortable ride with as much racing science as possible, writes the staff at reports the staff at Fast Co. Design.

We can't wait to see the BMW innovation in action at this year's Paralympic event in Rio de Janerio, Brazil. Until then, take a look at BMW's latest innovations, right here in our showroom.
