2016 BMW Titan Concept

The BMW Titan Concept, designed by Turkish industrial designer Mehmet Doruk Erdem, is an ambitious motorcycle prototype envisioned to break land speed records. Unveiled in 2016, this superbike resembles something out of a sci-fi movie, drawing inspiration from futuristic aesthetics and the natural world.


Erdem crafted the Titan with a sleek, low-slung profile reminiscent of a Tron light cycle and even evokes imagery akin to the Batmobile. The design is heavily influenced by the form of a great white shark, featuring a pointed nose that is optimized for slicing through the air. This aerodynamic approach is intended to enhance airflow towards the turbocharged engine's side-mounted air intake scoopsmize drag, the Titan's engine is fully enclosed, allowing for streamlined performance at high speeds. The dashboard control panel is a notable feature, providing the rider with real-time data on suspension settings, fluid temperatures, and pressures, ensuring the bike operates at optimal levels. Additionally, taft is ingeniously integrated within the left side of the rear suspension swingarm, while the spring and shock absorber are concealed on the right side, keeping them out of the airflow and contributing to the bike's aerodynamic efficiency.


Purpose and Visione Titan is not designed for everyday use—Erdem explicitly states it was built solely with the idea of speed in mind—it showcases the potential for motorcycle design to push boundaries beyond traditional styles like cruisers and cafe racers. This concept represents a shift toward innovative engineering and design, focusing on performance and futuristic aesthetics.
