BMW GINA Light Visionary  Model Well we started with a stunning Beamer  so let’s finish with a stunning Beamer. Perhaps ‘stunning’ is a word  open to debate? Well as concept cars go this is toward the extreme end.  Your eyes aren’t deceiving you – that is fabric over the bonnet  and the door hinges. Virtually seamless stretch fabric is fastened  across a metal and carbon fibre mesh to allow flexibility and movement  in the car’s frame. The rear spoiler can be raised and lowered for  example. Internally BMW have carried this flexible theme through to the  dashboard, steering wheel and centre console; all of which slide into  position once the driver’s made himself comfortable. GINA – Geometry and  Functions in N Adaptations – is as forced an acronym as any I’ve heard  but this idea of a car having a movable structure is intriguing. Perhaps  ‘Transformers’ aren’t that far away!</blockquote>
