THE BMW VISION NEXT 100.
Discover how BMW is taking the ultimate driving machine into a new dimension with the BMW VISION NEXT 100 vision vehicle.
An amalgamation of the BMW i3 and BMW i8, the BMW i Vision Dynamics showcases how we envisage the future of electric mobility. The dynamic and progressive four-door Gran Coupé has a range of 373 miles, a top speed of over 120mph and an acceleration of 0-62mph in a staggering four seconds.
The silhouette of the BMW i Vision Dynamics demonstrates an evolution in classic BMW proportions; a long wheelbase, flowing roofline and short overhangs exude elegance and dynamism. Its outline is fleshed out by large, contoured surfaces, the exterior appearing as if cut from a single mould.
When viewed from the rear, the smooth curves guide the car's horizontal profile, while the tapering of the passenger cell creates a muscular appearance.
Perhaps the most eye-catching features are the L-shaped rear lights; their slim-cut design accentuates its wide stance on the road and underscores the dynamic efficiency of the vehicle.
Combining the past and future of BMW through more than just design enhancements, the kidney grilles of the BMW i Vision Dynamics serve as a declaration of technological know-how. Underlying sensors transform the prominent, enclosed kidneys into an "intelligence surface".
Similarly, the headlights represent both heritage and future through a modern interpretation of the classic BMW four-eyed front end. Two freestanding LED light elements on each side integrate all of the necessary lighting functions, yet enhance the striking look that is typical of BMW.
By 2025, BMW plans to offer 25 models with an electrified drive system – 12 of which will be pure-electric.
The BMW i Vision Dynamics encompasses everything that the BMW Group envisages for the future: modernity, progressiveness, technical aesthetics and emotionally engaging electrified mobility.
