"Double kidney" trim as the classic design language of the BMW family, in this car is also reflected, in addition, in the interior of the double kidney shape, there is a sense of technology full of edge blue trim design, at present, in the trailer, the blue trim also has a luminous function, I don't know to the mass production car will have such a beautiful design. Interestingly, this double kidney design of the trim will not run through the end like the new BMW 4 Series, but only enlarged and upgraded on the grille of the previous BMW i3.
In addition to the classic double kidney shape, the bumper of the new BMW iX1 also looks very dynamic, with a strong visual impact and a sense of contour.
