BMW's new electric SUV concept is loaded with impressive tech - here's a look at its best features

The BMW Vision iNEXT SUV is just around the corner.

The car is painted in a "Liquid Greyrose Copper," which changed shades from warm copper to dark rose depending on the light.

Here it is in dark rose. The dynamic sculpted forms and two-box proportions with a long roofline highlight the ample space inside the passenger cabin.

The car features a long glass panel covering the roof, allowing sunlight to come in through the car, while the wide driver's window offers an unobstructed view.

Along with super-slim headlights, the car boasts a large, interlinked double-kidney grille.

There is no traditional combustion engine inside that requires cooling, so the kidney element now serves as an “intelligence panel” housing various sensors that make the car an autonomous vehicle.

Check out the car at night! Those rear-lights glow in a really cool way.

Inside the vehicle, Vision iNEXT drivers can choose to either use "Boost" mode to drive themselves or "Ease" mode to be driven by the car's technology.

While in "Ease" mode, the steering wheel retracts slightly into the dashboard, and the display panels change into "Exploration Mode" which allows passengers to explore their surroundings while the car drives them.

BMW boasts that "Boost" mode is a virtually silent driving experience that exerts zero-emissions from the car.

The rear compartment is modeled on a high-end living space with handwoven Enlightened Cloudburst Jacquard cloth.

The doors will be opened by touch-sensitive illuminated graphics and with no B-pillar separating the front from the back, the doors will open opposite each other.

BMW plans to release the car to the market in 2021.
