BMW has teased its upcoming pure-electric, autonomous crossover, the iNext, as it gears up to being production in 2021.
That's right, 2021. The plug-in technology showcase was teased by a distinctive concept last year, with a suitably eye-catching exterior and a cabin inspired by a "modern, high-end living space".
BMW has revealed the face of its upcoming iNext SUV concept, in a new teaser video promoting the all-electric crossover.
It's certainly going to be distinctive, with a tall take on the new kidney grille dominating its bulbous nose, flanked by slimline laser headlights. The flanks are dominated by pumped-up wheel arches and a tall window line, while the concept appears to have a sloping coupe-style roofline.
BMW has committed to boosting its spend on electric vehicle development this year, with board members revealing the planned investment in a press conference last month.
Harald Kruger, chairman of the BMW Group board of management, used his time at the microphone to outline the brand's planned electric rollout. It'll start with the iX3, before expanding to include the iNext and i4.
"Our future is definitely electric," Kruger unequivocally stated during his remarks.
