BMW Panoramic Vision to be introduced in 2025

BMW announced that a new head-up display system currently in development will be introduced in the first Neue Klasse models in 2023.

Per the German carmaker, the BMW Panoramic Vision uses innovative projection technology that allows equipped vehicles to display relevant information across the entire width (of the bottom area) of the windscreen.

By emitting a higher light intensity and contrast onto a dark-coated area at the lower edge of the windscreen, the BMW Panoramic Vision makes it possible to create extremely sharp images that are always visible across the full width of the windshield.

“The windscreen becomes a single large display with our new BMW Panoramic Vision, opening up completely new possibilities for the design of our vehicles. Whether the driver decides which information they want to display in their own field of vision, or that all occupants can see the entire content. The revolutionary projection and the significantly more clearly structured cockpit give an impressive new feeling of space and driving. We are taking our proven ‘eyes on the road – hands on the wheel’ slogan to a new level,” commented BMW Member of the Board for Development Frank Weber.

To note, the aforementioned “eyes on the road – hands on the wheel” motto has been the cornerstone of BMW design.

The Munich-based marque claimed to have been the first carmaker to develop a cockpit that focuses on a particularly intensive, safe, and concentrated driving experience and is looking to bring about a new car interior revolution with the introduction of the BMW Panoramic Vision. 

BMW even pointed out that the BMW 7 Series, produced in the 1980s, had onboard computers with digital displays. Additionally, it said that the first BMW iDrive in 2001 comprehensively reduced switches and buttons like no other control system before, creating a modern, uncluttered interior.
