Maclaren BMW Twin

The Maclaren BMW Twin is a double version of BMW Buggy with two side-by-side seats. Due to simpler, only partially reclinable seats, it can be used for twins or siblings close in age able to sit independently.

The Maclaren BMW Buggy belongs to the Maclaren Objects of Design category. It is a result of a design collaboration between the brands Maclaren and BMW. The luxury, sporty design, logos on the harness buckle as well as on the clasps on the hood and on the wheels - these are all elements inspired by M5 model. Reflective accents, brakes and the beginning of the folding mechanism remind of car tail lights.
