Gbex says: My uncle dropped by my office yesterday with his new BMW car!...Well, this car he was driving from Manila to Naga City is, by far, the latest BMW model which he acquired just six months ago.
But make no mistake about it, as soon as another BMW's most recent acquisition gets into market, I am sure that my uncle will trade in that car which he has right now with another new BMW model: BMW GINA Light Visionary Model!
This newest model (which is not yet out in the market) was just unveiled its latest design philosophy — via a radical concept car — that will sure to raise eyebrows in the automotive industry.
Branded as the "game changer" for the "development of tomorrow's mobility," the new concept centers around the GINA principle, for Geometry and Functions In "N" Adaptions. What does this mean? It means that it has the ability for BMW to think outside the box and innovate maximum ideas with mininum amount of the usual constraints associated with car design.
Some of the best features of this newest model are:
The Light Visionary model is striking not only because of its fabric outer skin, but also its utility in form following function.
Because of the flexible skin, the headlights can be hidden or exposed when necessary.
The side markers to signal lane changes are not visible on the outside until they are turned on during use — their light shines though the translucent (but not transparent) cover.
Airflow around the car can be managed actively as the skin can be closed, opened or stretched based on need; the rocker-panel shape can be adjusted for better aerodynamics. And because the rear deck is covered by one single piece of fabric, the spoiler can be completely hidden when it is not in use. So, there you go. Wanna wait for this model's release?
