BMW GINA


Chris Bangle, head of design at BMW, unveiled this new car which is called GINA (stands for Geometry and functions In ‘N’ Adaptions). GINA is basically a fabric-covered car that can change shape at the press of a button. It has been built on the Z8 chassis and has a 4.4-liter V8 and six-speed automatic transmission. The exterior’s fabric skin, made from polyurethane-coated Lycra, is resilient, waterproof and durable. It’s been stretched out over an aluminium frame that’s controlled by electric and hydraulic actuators that allow the owner to change the body shape.
