The US Bobsled Team's BMW-designed two-man bobsled
The carbon fiber-bodied sled was designed using BWW’s Efficient Dynamics principles, which are usually used for developing lighter, faster, more fuel-efficient cars

At the time, only a vague teaser sketch of the sled was available. Now that one of the prototypes has been raced, however, we get to see some actual photos – and the thing looks pretty sharp. Its performance is also promising.
