Who doesn't like BMW cars, don't have any idea what a good and smart car means. It is absolutely impossible, if you are a car fan, not to love the classic lines of a BMW 507, or the elegant design of the newest BMW Z4 roadster.  Now, the germane factory that is producing this line, came with a new and innovating idea inspirited from these cool models and they created GINA.

GINA is an acronym for Geometry and Functions in 'N' Adaptations where the N means the infinite number of possibilities. It is a conceive way to resume a entire typology of thinking and ideas  about how cars will be formed, produced, and used by the persons that owns them in the future. The Light Visionary Model, also known as LVM,  is a forcible manifestation of this concept, and features some cool advanced methods  to help this philosophy to become a  reality.

BMW experts told in a released video clip about this car that this concept isn't just about the elegance and the finished lines of this car or a futuristic point of view on transport vehicles that will be built soon, but also it represents the philosophical idea of freedom, that was debated in so many art creations before and preoccupied every smart person. Following this, GINA is made from a material that compresses two layers, water and temperature resistant.

The principal characteristic of this car is the difference between the numbers of exterior panels. While a normal and simple car have hundreds of  body panels that cover its exterior, the LVM have only 4 outer elements: one that protects totally the front end of the car and runs to the back borders of the doors, 2 rear quarter coatings, and one all around the rear part. GINA's seat designers came with the exact measurement, cutting off, and adherence of the material, that is extended over a mechanized electric and electro-hydraulic metal and carbon body.



In the official movie trailer we can see how GINA moves its body parts and change its shapes exactly how the driver wants. For example, the back side area and side sills can change their shapes as a result to the driver commands so as the interior clime can be properly to any person. The rear spoiler projects from its surroundings out of the rear and the rocker boards change their form into extra character lines.

The head lights are not accessible to view until the driver don't release and turn them on, only that they will not appear suddenly, like the ones from a Pontiac Firebird do, the exterior case will open and reveal them. They have the classical round form of BMW's head lights, which became a symbol for these cars. Despite how you expected, they won't get out from an open trap. They will illuminate from the behind of the material. The engine have 8 cylinders and it is hide under a 1,6 foot long slit that opens and closes easy, like an old bag.



As the case surface area doesn't transform as the structure chemises  beneath, in the case that you want to open the doors, the fabric agglomerates in planned and prearranged crimps. GINA is able to make other small piles if you feel that you need a little more air and the panels will become more stretched.

Following the exterior line, Gina can adapt for the driver's necessities even inside. The back material will run over the  bulkhead and will cover the both seats, that will be moved  into first  position once a person will sit on them. In that moment, a cushion attached to the top of the back will rise and the rest of the interior will prepare by itself for activity by moving the wheel and the gauges into  a place that will follow the idea of adapting to the user's needs in what all BMW lovers know as the "idle position."

The designers said that vehicles with this type of adaptive functionality will improve the emotional attachment  between man and car, and that the LVM  philosophy will allow the producers to make cars with less model typology  instruments and hardware. In addition of the practical implications that the GINA LVM express for fabricating and design, however, it also is a typical  return to the imaginary futuristic car stuff that dominated every auto show between the 50's and the 60's . The BMW's GINA model is a futuristic and cool idea, under the signature of a giant in the auto vehicles market.
