Key Features

Designed for
Maximum Control

The interior of the BMW M Concept Neue Klasse is consistently aligned with the driver. Reduced design, clear functions and premium materials create focus that places performance and control centre stage.

Iconic Front
01

Iconic Front — The Sharknose Reborn

The front reinterprets the legendary BMW Sharknose, giving the vehicle a focused presence. A Trimaran bumper, motorsport-inspired front splitter and the distinctive M Yellow Track Lights define the unmistakeable appearance.

Clear Balance
02

Clear Balance — Muscular Proportions

Sporting proportions, sharply led lines along the reduced side wall define the unique BMW M character of the concept vehicle. Short overhangs and a muscular shoulder section with widely flared wheel arches give it a powerful stance.

Striking Rear
03

The Rear — Aerodynamic Mastery

The striking rear connects clear surfaces. Track Lights frame the Trimaran element above the floating diffuser, while the Ducktail spoiler acts as an aerodynamic separation edge that increases downforce.

Driver Cockpit
04

Driver at Centre — The Cockpit

The cockpit is clearly structured and places the driver at the centre. A floating dashboard in black knit defines the interior and is complemented at start-up by an M-specific hexagonal light pattern.

Designed for Stability — Racing Seats

Newly developed bucket seats guarantee secure support even in highly dynamic driving situations. Two-colour Merino leather in Berry Red and Bathurst Blue is combined with integrated natural fibre components.

Targeted Markings — M Steering Wheel

Red accents set deliberate visual markings at central performance functions. On the steering wheel, shift paddles and the new gear selector link operation and design — creating a direct connection to motorsport.

Technology

Heart of Joy —
Intelligent Control

Beyond design and space, the concept vehicle illustrates key technological approaches of the next generation. Intelligent control, new drive concepts and connected systems show how driving dynamics, control and efficiency will develop in the future.

Heart of Joy M Dynamics
01 — eDrive

BMW M eDrive — Gen6 Platform

The new BMW M eDrive is based on BMW's Gen6 technology from the Neue Klasse, developed specifically for fully electric high-performance applications.

02 — Control

M Dynamic Performance Control

The central control software enables integrated, individually per-wheel control of drive and braking systems simultaneously for precision torque vectoring.

03 — Architecture

Neue Klasse 800V Architecture

The 800V high-voltage architecture delivers significantly faster charging, lower thermal losses and greater efficiency at high power outputs.

04 — Display

Neue Klasse Digital Interface

The digital display system follows a clear principle: maximum information with minimum distraction.

05 — Materials

Natural Fibre Innovation

For the first time, refined natural fibre is used in refined form, visible in the roof graphic and integrated seat components.

"

The new BMW M design language forms the expressive spearhead of the Neue Klasse — determined and purposeful. For me, this project is special because it leads the BMW M character into a new era. At BMW M, form consistently follows function. Every detail serves performance.
