However, cars and motorcycles remain a vital part of the transport arrangements to ensure the smooth running and full operational support of the Games.”Įlectric vehicles will play an important role and the fleet will include 200 MINI Es and BMW 1 Series Active Es. It is rather fitting therefore that the first vehicle we accept for the 2012 fleet is a bike. “Everybody will be travelling to the Games by foot, bicycle or public transport where ever possible,” said David Stubbs, Head of Sustainability for LOCOG, “and the LOCOG team will be no exception to this. The BMW 320d EfficientDynamics Saloon will make up at least a third of the fleet, as a new model, the BMW 520d EfficientDynamics Saloon, which will make its global debut later today, will also feature significantly in the 2012 fleet.

The vehicle in question id nothing but a bicycle that will form part of a 400-strong fleet of bicycles used by LOCOG in the run-up to and during the Games. German manufacturer BMW Group has today handed over the first vehicle to the London Organising Committee of the Olympic Games (LOCOG) to support the 2012 Games.
