The German manufacturer for first time introduced the colour-changing technology in 2022 at the same CES event.

The outdoor panels (body surface) are divided into 240 individually controlled parts that allow occupants to change colour of each part.

The iconic kidney grille of the concept car can also make facial expressions via physical icons. The i Vision Dee can also communicate with the driver as it is designed to have self-awareness.

“BMW i Vision Dee shows what’s possible when hardware and software are combined. This allows us to exploit the full potential of digitalisation to transform the car into an intelligent companion. That is the future for automotive manufacturers – and for BMW, also: the fusion of the virtual experience with genuine driving pleasure, ” Oliver Zipse, CEO of BMW Group.

The new car also welcomes the owner with his personal avatar on the driver’s side window and automatically opens the door with a perosnlised message.
