Generous space, a high-quality mix of materials, newly developed seats with integrated headrests and an exceptionally large panoramic glass roof create a luxurious lounge atmosphere on all five seats in the interior of the BMW iX. The completely newly developed architecture in the interior of the BMW iX makes it possible to present a clear and uncomplicated functionality that is entirely focused on the needs and emotions of the driver and his fellow passengers. The absence of a center tunnel made possible by the drive concept underscores the open feeling of space and creates additional legroom in the front seats and in the rear, as well as space for storage and a center console designed like a high-quality piece of furniture. A reduced design language and clearly structured surfaces bring out the spaciousness of the ambience even more intensively. All displays and controls are reduced to the essentials, further enhancing the impression of a tidy interior that invites relaxation. The technology of the BMW iX is used intelligently and only makes an appearance when it is needed. As a result, it is not perceived as complex but can be used intuitively. The interior design conveys a feeling of safety and familiarity and creates a new kind of bond between the occupants and the vehicle. The principle of Shy Tech is implemented in the interior by, among other things, invisibly integrated loudspeakers, filigree air vents, heated surfaces and the projector of the BMW Head-Up Display, which is very homogeneous and almost invisibly embedded in the instrument panel. The hexagonal steering wheel, a rocker switch for selecting gear ratios and the BMW Curved Display as part of the next generation of the BMW Operating System immediately signal a forward-looking form of driving pleasure.

The new Abarth 595 Monster Energy Yamaha special series is designed as an exclusive product, defining the ultra-high performance of Abarth. Produced in a limited edition of 2,000 units, the new special series celebrates the partnership between the two brands, which has now lasted since 2015. A bond based on shared values: performance, racing, technology and fun. Aesthetically inspired by the livery of the 2020 Monster Energy Yamaha MotoGP’s YZR-M1, the exterior of the new special series features a dual colour blue and black livery bearing the ‘Monster Energy Yamaha MotoGP’ logo on its lower side, just above the 595 logo. The special series is finished off with the Monster ‘claw’ on the bonnet, a sign of the new collaboration between the Scorpion and the renowned energy drink. The dark colours are contrasted with the grey finishes, as seen in the door handles and the front and rear DAM. On the inside, the model features the special new Abarth sports seats with blue finishes and the ‘Monster Energy Yamaha MotoGP’ logo on the head restraints. The blue lining stands out from the black dashboard, mirroring the dual colour livery, while the numbered plate is placed on the central tunnel. The Abarth 595 Monster Energy Yamaha is equipped with a 1.4 T-jet engine with Euro6D TEMP homologation, with manual transmission delivering 165hp.
