On April 24, the BMW Night event officially opened, and the new generation of BMW new-generation concept cars was officially unveiled, including the new BMW i4, MINI COOPER SE, AND MINI ACEMAN SE. The following is an introduction to the new model.

BMW's next-generation concept

The next-generation BMW Concept will lead the design concept of the next-generation BMW sedan, and its production version will be officially unveiled next year. The most distinctive feature of the concept car is the new kidney grille that spans the entire front of the car, which integrates with the headlights, giving it a retro look and reducing the number of body parts, reducing costs.

The concept retains the proportions of a traditional sedan, and features a short front overhang, four corners of the wheels, and large wheels for a sportier look and improved handling.

The interior of BMW's new-generation concept car continues the minimalist design of its exterior, eliminating the physical buttons and replacing the cabin functions with a central control machine. The new car is equipped with a uniquely shaped four-spoke steering wheel with touch feedback, and the entire instrument panel is designed low to provide better visibility.

The new car transforms the traditional LCD instrument cluster into a long screen, called the "BMW Panoramic View Bridge", which is placed on the lower edge of the front windshield to make it easier for the driver to view the information. The central display has an irregular shape to shorten the distance between the driver and the driver.

At the same time, BMW's new-generation concept car will also be equipped with a new generation of iDrive in-vehicle system, which is more intelligent than the current iDrive.

The new BMW i4

The appearance of the new car has not changed much, the daytime running light shape of the headlight module has been changed to a "figure 7" design, so that its eyes are sharper, and with the unique super large kidney grille of i4, the entire front face looks more fierce.

In addition, the new BMW i4 has also been replaced with a new tail light module, with three slender "figure 7" light strips, echoing the previous daytime running lights.

The interior has been fine-tuned, with the steering wheel replaced with a flat-ground D-shaped steering wheel, and the steering wheel has been hollowed out to give it a sportier feel. In addition, the air conditioning vents have been redesigned, with a double-layer design on both sides and an air conditioning outlet in the middle that is integrated with ambient lighting.

The power parameters and range information of the new i4 will be officially announced later.

MINI COOPER SE

THE MINI COOPER SE ADOPTS THE MOST CLASSIC MINI DESIGN STYLE AS A WHOLE, AND IS EQUIPPED WITH A HIGHLY RECOGNIZABLE ROUND HEADLIGHT CLUSTER. It's just that as a pure electric vehicle, it is equipped with a new closed grille, and the whole shape will be more technological.

The new car still adopts the two-door hatchback design, the body design remains simple, and the rear is equipped with the classic British "rice flag" element taillights. In terms of body size, the new car has a length, width and height of 3863/1756/1458mm and a wheelbase of 2526mm.

In terms of interior, the new car is equipped with a new three-spoke steering wheel, a 9.44-inch round central control unit, and a head-up display (HUD) system. At the same time, the central tunnel of the new car also maintains the design style of the MINI Cooper, with a floating central armrest box, so that the main and passenger users can also get off the car on both sides more conveniently.

In terms of power, the new car is equipped with a single electric motor with a maximum output of 281 hp and a 54 kWh battery pack, which accelerates to 100 km/h in 6.7 seconds and has an all-electric range of 402 km in WLTP mode.

MINI ACEMAN IS

THE MINI ACEMAN SE IS A NEW MEMBER OF THE MINI FAMILY, A CROSSOVER ELECTRIC SUV WITH AN IRREGULAR POLYGONAL DESIGN FOR THE FRONT LIGHTS, WHICH IS MORE IN LINE WITH ITS TOUGH DESIGN STYLE.

The taillights of the new car are in the shape of a "rice flag" composed of multiple lines interspersed, and the new car also adds rose gold trim to the body to enhance its appearance.

It measures 4076 mm in length, width and height, with a wheelbase of 2606 mm, and measures between the COUNTRYMAN and the discontinued CLUBMAN.

THE INTERIOR OF THE NEW CAR ADOPTS A SIMILAR DESIGN STYLE TO THE MINI COOPER SE, WITH A NEW THREE-SPOKE STEERING WHEEL, A HEAD-UP DISPLAY (HUD), AND A ROUND OLED CENTRAL CONTROL UNIT.

The ACEMAN is also powered by two 135kW/160kW drive motors, as well as four 40kWh and 54.2kWh battery packs.
