BMW Concept X9

BMW Concept X9 1
The BMW X9 is designed by Khalfi Oussama is a 18-year-old designer from Tunisia. This concept car design X9 has very futuristic and very aggressive color sense. It could be a proposal for a new Batmobile.

BMW has seen some rather odd looking cars roll off the production line over the past 10 years, but Khalfi Oussama’s new X9 off roader concept coupe takes oddball beemers to a whole new level. The X9’s massive wheels and excessively wide (not to mention oddly patterned) tyres combined with its color matched side-steps and heavy-duty crash plates front and rear definitely showcase the car’s intentions. At first glance, this concept car BMW X9 seems more suited to Hollywood than the actual driving in the streets. This will be used on any type of a car engine, is currently no detailed information, but because everything is the result of imagination, so anything is possible. As we know, attractive design and powerful engines rely on each other, but both a model of success in both play an important role.

Strange about the design of rich people sometimes go far beyond the imagination of car makers imagination, which launched in recent weeks from so many works on the concept car design is evident. This BMW concept car designed for 18-year-old X9 designer seems a lot of experience in automotive design, as he had also drawn up before several other models, futuristic design sketches, including BMW and Ferrari models.

The BMW X9 Concept blends the sporty bodylines of a coupe with the rolling stock of an off roader much like BMW’s chunky yet sporty looking X6 soft roader. The BMW X9 coupe also carries a new interpretation of BMW’s signature kidney grille, although Oussama’s version is considerably smaller than the current flock of BMWs. The grille sits alongside a set of unique twin-headlights, as well as a pair of tiny foglights that are set into the bumper.

BMW M1 Homage Concept Car

BMW M1 Homage Concept Car
The overall design is driven by functionality and each detail has its purpose. The Liquid Orange paintwork exclusively developed for the BMW M1 Homage cites the classic BMW M1 colour, yet surprises with its powerfully iridescent play of colour and brilliant depth. It shapes the extrovert surface language and strikingly highlights the eloquent interplay of convex and concave surfaces. A telling symbol of this is the kidney grille design of the BMW M1 Homage, fulfilling as it does several functions at the same time. The twin kidney isn't just a signature BMW feature, it is also part of the car's honed aerodynamics: it guides the air to the engine cooling as well as constituting the front section of a crash box, similar to the monocoque chassis of a Formula One race car. Mention the BMW M1, and another feature that immediately springs to mind is the characteristic twin logo at the rear, on the right and left edge above the tail lights. For BMW, this particular arrangement of its emblems has always signalled a mid-engined model. In the development stage of the BMW M1 this dual emblem was the first styling element to be approved even before the initial sketches were drawn. Other specific styling cues taken from the BMW M1 are the air vents in the bonnet and the louvres on the rear windscreen, as well as the black cutline dividing the roofline from the rear section of the body. Overall, the exterior dimensions of the BMW M1 Homage are in keeping with those of the BMW M1; only the extended wheelbase indicates a larger passenger cell. The cooling air routing for the engine is positioned below the roofline, in the black recessed cutline along the side of the vehicle behind the window graphic. Small flaps and openings guide the air stream into the engine compartment to ensure an adequate supply of cooling air.
