BMW GINA is not a concept like you see at every car saloon.This time,BMW mixed the futuristic design with a new vision over the base structure of the concept.

The german engineers gave birth to a 2 seat roadster,that, instead of the body kit made out of aluminum or steel,it uses a textile material,flexible and really strong,that covers the metallic structure.

Some of the elements of the textile structure can even move,allowing the vehicle to change shape.During the day,when the use of lights isn`t necessary,the optical blocks are hidden under the textile body.The shape of the concept changes when the body allows opening the front optical blocks.


Chris Bangle,BMW chief designer ,said that this concept proves that you don`t need a body to keep the rigidity of a model.That`s why the designers and constructors shouldn`t feel limited to using the common elements for a body.Bangle says that this way the costs would drop dramatically and everyone could save important energy resources.

Here is a movie in which Chris Bangle explains the philosophy that put the bases of the GINA concept.
