It's a very futuristic self driving concept... I'm curious, but unless it's the approved bodystyle for the i5, I don't think I'll care that much.

Drivers cars excite me more than autonomous mobility solutions.

Could this be the i5?

According to our sources – now confirmed by other media as well – BMW will unveil a visionary concept car that will highlight the company’s vision for future mobility. Our sources say this is not a future production car, but rather a unique concept that pushes the boundaries of automotive design and engineering.

A teaser image was shared by BMW along with a statement from Harald Krüger, BMW’s chairman of the board of management: “The company has continually evolved and, in some cases, reinvented itself. That will continue in the future.”

It would be a shame if it's based on the i8.

There is a video from Mercedes aswell, thanking BMW for 100 year of competition, and also telling that the 30 previous years were boring

So the new concept will be based on the i8. Maybe a self-driven i8? Or the long rumored i8S?

It seems we can excludes this.

That's awesome. And they are right too, it would be very boring without either MB or BMW.

These ads from MB and Porsche give me goosebumps. True story.

Says who?

I don't think it'll be based on i8 at all, that would be very, very cheap.

Class act by mercedes, inviting all BMW AG employes to the Museum free of charge, and some food for the 50 first.. I don't recall BMW congratulating MB at all on their anniversarys.

It doesn't look like there's anything official on their youtube channel. It would be sad if these "ads" were not real.
