Visitors to the BMW stand in Frankfurt were spoilt for choice. Alongside its futuristic Vision EfficientDynamics concept (see our exclusive AE video), the German giant displayed its new 5-Series Gran Turismo and its entry-level off-roader, the X1.
And once the formalities were out of the way, the firm even turned its stand into a giant scalextric. Its range of new cars and a selection of classic models were driven around the galleried walkway and banked staging when its sleek hybrid model had been unveiled.
