[Uygar]

I thought you guys knew about the Neua Klease

VERY cool, IMHO.

This, I assume, AI assisted sketch by @Uygar...

....is, IMHO, immensely far more appealing than this Autoweek illustration:

Is the Autoweek illustration a fully handcrafted image ? Or AI assisted ? Or exclusively AI generated ?

If you follow the curve of the bonnet at the fascia of the A I render. It looks like the hood outline for the i3.
Invites are out for iX3 Previews prior to the IAA premiere.
Both Neue-Klasse vehicles look like they will win the race for visual originality.

Do you know what is the feeling across the industry regarding where the NK vehicles stand in terms of EV tech?

No mate, I didn’t sketch any of that render. I just wrote the prompt. After it was finished, I tweaked some stuff with Photoshop.
Autoweek one looks handcrafted actually. Seems like they used Photoshop on the spied cars to create that render.

Got to say I love the side profile of that red render. Don't think it's far off the real deal.

The profile looks great. I can't say I'm sold on the NK front end graphics though.
I understand they're trying a new visual paradigm, but it doesn't scream "BMW" to me. In kind of the same way the EQE and EQS front ends don't scream "Benz".
However, at the very least the shape of the thing is fantastic. And the spy shots seem to show that it's well-sculpted bodywork too.

larson tends to not use ai for making the renders, just animating them on his instagram. unlike avarvarii who makes use of ai in a lot of his renders.

A I can elevate the most ridiculous art into masterpieces. It’s a tool not a talent.
