BMW VISION M NEXT
THE POWER OF ATTRACTION.
For the BMW Vision M NEXT, the BMW design team turned to the iconic BMW Turbo and the groundbreaking BMW i8 for inspiration. In line with the new BMW design strategy, the BMW Vision M NEXT exudes a powerful character with its sporty proportions and the presence of just a few, crisp lines.
DYNAMIC WEIGHTLESSNESS.
The soft outer edges of the BMW kidney grille are reminiscent of a turbine’s air intake. The kidney grille is blanked of by layers that on second viewing reveal an illuminated, laser-engraved pattern.
RADICAL POWER PACK.
The protruding kidney grille is flanked by triangular elements in Thrilling Orange, emphasising the laterally positioned air intakes and the integrated headlights. Taut surfaces arch the bonnet like powerful muscles.
AGILITY EVEN STANDING STILL.
The diagonal colour separation underlines the dynamics in the low-slung, wedge-shaped silhouette. The self-assured extremely graphic colour blocking with the matt and highly pigmented shade of Thrilling Orange stands in strong contrast to the silk-matt exterior colour of Cast Silver.
INSPIRED BY LEGENDS.
The design of the rear takes its cue from the BMW M1. The three-part fins are made of glass and emphasise the horizontal orientation of the rear-end styling. The area below it is made from recycled carbon material and incorporates the technical-looking diffuser, which provides a clear indication of the vehicle’s aerodynamic credentials.
ICONS, FUTURE-FOCUSED INTERPRETED.
The contours on the pronounced shoulder line trace the iconic Hofmeister kink. The design is broken up by a gill-like aperture that narrows as it sweeps back from the window surface towards the tail, giving the car a more elongated appearance.

Domagoj Dukec, Head of Design BMW"In the BMW Vision M NEXT, intelligent technologies help the driver and deliver the right content at the right time. Operation is clear and intuitive, with all information presented in the driver’s direct field of view."
PERFECTION IN SPORTS CAR AESTHETICS.
THE FUTURE IS WOW.
With a distinctive, electrified sports car, BMW M is providing a look ahead to the brand’s uncompromisingly sporty promise for the future. The BMW Vision M NEXT is a progressive sports car that makes a clear and self-confident statement both in terms of its appearance and its interaction.
PULSE ACCELERATOR.
A single, ultra-thin glass fibre on each side is fashioned to look like an abstract ECG trace of a heartbeat. The laser wire technology in the front creates an extremely precise interpretation of BMW’s signature four-eyed front end.
HIGH-PERFORMANCE ATHLETICISM.
Precisely engineered gaps in the wheels’ intricate, three-dimensional multi-spoke design result in low weight, maximum rigidity and reduced air resistance. The coloured inserts in the rear rims are not only a visual highlight but also achieve optimum aerodynamic efficiency.
BOOST+
SHEER DRIVING PLEASURE REDEFINED.
The BMW Vision M NEXT shows the next step of the typical BMW driver orientation. The entire interior focuses on the BOOST Pod. Geometry is consciously restrained so that the driver can concentrate completely on the driving experience.
LIKE A SINGLE PIECE.
The two gullwing doors open to reveal the beautiful interior that allows driver and vehicle to become one. The dominant colour is the dark shade of Midnight Blue. As on the exterior, the colour of Thrilling Orange adds selective contrasts.
A MAXIMUM OF MINIMALISM.
With a tapering form that channels the focus on the driver, the dashboard has a flat, minimalist design. All functional elements, such as air vents and pockets are seamlessly hidden in the geometry, yet they are still highly efficient.
BOOST POD.
The masterpiece is the BOOST Pod. Consisting of a horizontally aligned steering wheel, a transparent Curved Glass Display and a Full AR Head-Up Display brings together all control options and information for the driver. The BOOST+ mode allows additional power at the press of a button. Touching the BMW Logo in the steering wheel brings the BMW Vision M NEXT into life.
CURVED GLASS DISPLAY.
The transparent Curved Glass Display forms the second level. Like a visor, it extends in front of the driver and supplies information such as revs, speed, energy management of the vehicle or the driver’s pulse.
FULL AR HEAD-UP DISPLAY.
The full-area Head-Up Display forms the third level. As speed increases, the information relevant to driving shifts to the Head-Up Display so that drivers have everything within their field of vision. Thanks to augmented reality technology, the information is superimposed onto the real picture. In this way, you can drive the perfect ideal line with a virtual ghost car to lead the way.
LIKE A SECOND SKIN.
The two seat shells are part of the flowing seat sculpture and lined with a foam using the shape-memory effect to provide an optimum enclosure for the body. Suspended above the two seat shells are headrests that create a hovering effect and thus underline the expression of lightness.

IMMERSE YOURSELF.
ON A MISSION FOR THE FUTURE.
