This BMW gives autonomous driving the finger!

Like designer David Olivares puts it, the iM2 will make sure there still are some skid marks in the upcoming era of autonomous cars! Designed for M enthusiasts who’ve been squeezing in their thrills before they can no longer drive a petrol car, the iM2 sacrifices luxury and range (something most electric cars are hyper-focused on) for sheer acceleration. No word on specs except that there is NO autonomous driving option!

Aesthetically, the iM2 explores a sharper silhouette as a new design direction. The straight lines, especially in the snub-nose grill section, are a bit Lexus-y but nonetheless an interesting direction for mixing up BMW’s traditionally round double-kidney nose.
