    ABOUT

    TWO BROTHERS.
    A SHARED LOVE OF BMW.

    Bavarian Econs began with Nicolás and Edgar Navarro, two brothers from Bogotá who grew up around cars.

    In 2019, Nicolás proposed electrifying the classic BMWs they had grown up with. The brothers visited electric vehicle and restoration companies in California, then returned to Germany and bought a BMW 2002 in Frankfurt to build their first prototype.

    That idea became Bavarian Econs: keeping the BMWs they love on the road, with electric power. Today, the work continues in Munich.
