Concept crazy: BMW’s birthday bonanza

The BMW Group has marked its centenary with more concepts, giving a hint of what its cars of the future might look like.

Under the motto “The next 100 years”, BMW unveiled radical designs for two more of its brands – Rolls-Royce and MINI.

Rolls-Royce VISION NEXT 100 and MINI VISION NEXT 100 join BMW VISION NEXT 100, unveiled in May.

Called 103EX, the Rolls-Royce concept is a fully autonomous coachbuilt luxury car, while the electric MINI concept collects its driver from a desired location, changes colour, and parks and recharges automatically.

Meanwhile, the BMW VISION NEXT 100 provides a glimpse of what “Sheer Driving Pleasure” could look like in the future.
