BMW’s insane car of the future replaces dashboards with augmented reality
- 8 years ago
BMW is in the midst of celebrating its 100th anniversary, and to mark the occasion, it just rolled out the Vision Next 100 concept at its Munich headquarters.
If you squint your eyes, you can still see a car that's clearly a BMW here - it has the iconic "kidney" grille, for instance - but beyond that, the details are all visions of a distant future.
As with other recent concept cars , the Vision Next 100 refuses to take sides in the self-driving debate - when you want to drive, you can, and the car helps you by drawing the optimal driving line on the windshield.
Very, very little in this car is anywhere close to production-ready, but put together, it's an interesting mix of tech that BMW thinks will define the next few decades of its existence.
