  • This is the BMW Gina, a BMW concept car that has moving skin. This crazy concept car was arguably the beginning of BMW’s journey of making cars that seem “alive” - like the BMW iX Flow, i Vision Dee and the BMW Vision Next 100. The Gina is almost entirely covered in elastic skin and has a bonnet that splits open to reveal it's V8. Today Sergi shows you why the BMW Gina is one of the coolest concept cars in the world!

      Polyurethane is pretty strong performance motor mounts use it that being said I thing it would take a brick through even then. Guess it depends on the thickness of it but little Rock 🪨 will undoubtedly bounce off I'd be more worried bout the cars around it with deflection off the material lol

      I live in a state where they put gravel down for winter, and with the right durable fabric I could see this being a good thing compared to a paint job, which takes a beating during the snowy months.

If it were fully electric and range limited for city use only it would still be sensational at any pricepoint.

    YOOOO!! Imagine this for the enthusiast market...
    YOU COULD LITERALLY BUY NEW SKIN FOR YOUR CAR! And have multiple skins to choose from... and it wouldn't take as long as re-wrapping your car you literally just put new skin on it, button it up and done!
    THIS IS COOL!

    I'd imagine this car being light , so seeing this being able to fly wouldn't be so far off

    Do you need to iron it before every ride?

    It reminds of one of those Goodyear blimps.

    Imagining the cars look would automatically adapt to the drivers face 😂 and even blink the lights synced to the eyes

    Beautiful concept show car. They should have put tension wires under the skin to make more slid and make it slightly more crush proof
