The Munich Motor Show is getting more and more interesting. One of the amazing cars there is the BMW I Vision Circular. Although BMW introduced some other cars in Munich, but this one is some how the guide line of the future. The Circular is construct with 100% recyclable materials.
The BMW I Vision Circular concept is not for these days, but is for the future of the smart cities. This is a four-seat compact EV that may be available in 2040. What very important to the company is, saving the earth along with style and luxury. All the components of this car can be recycled even the battery pack. As this German automaker says, the battery materials are from the recycling loop. Also, this automaker urge, in this way, battery will have higher energy density without draining valuable resources.
It’s a concept and we don’t expect much with the design. As the welcoming day of this car in real life is 2040, maybe by then this edgy and rondure look become a trend. The kidney grilles are the signature of BMW. Also, the headlights embedded within the grille fixtures at each corner. The windshield and roof create a single piece of glass and the wheels are just in the same way of headlights and grille design. Behind the car has the same style of single LED light bar.
Inside the car follows the style that BMW calls it “new joining techniques” . the dashboard is built up by 3D printers to save glue and the design is just in one piece. Along with crystal materials, interior is shining. No more touchscreen on the center of the car. Instead, the infotainment screen is above the instrument panel at the bottom of the windshield.
The seats are also so interesting. Although the rocky outlook is harsh, but the seats inside look so comfortable. They are colored with relaxing color of the lavender. The steering wheel is a 3D-printed item and then used wood powder on it.
Want to see one of them in future? Maybe by 2040 be lucky and see one of them. but this concept is just a start for company. Maybe later we see more recycle items in BMW cars.
