BMW's gorgeous 'Megacity' electric vehicle gets real

You know all those awesome concept cars we're always showing you? BMW's "Megacity" electric vehicle feels a lot like one of those, but the company actually has plans to bring this sleek, weird-wheeled-wonder out as early as 2013.

Details are a little scarce at the moment (especially when you consider that we're potentially only two years out), but the Megacity is expected to draw from a rear-mounted electric motor. What we really want to know about, though, are those wheels. What's up with those?

We're willing to put some money down that the Megacity will look quite a bit more tame once we get some photography instead of a teaser image, but what an image it is.
