This is the brand-new BMW Concept Touring Coupe.
The concept was just unveiled for the first time at Villa D’Este in Lake Como, Italy and it was designed to pay homage to the 1940s 328 BMW that won the Mille Miglia.
You can watch Supercar Blondie’s Sergi Galiano review the car below!

BMW Concept Touring Coupe design
The difference between this concept vehicle and almost any other is that this car looks production ready.
Starting at the back, the concept is defined by sleek horizontal lines which contribute to the car’s wide and aggressive rear appearance.
Around the front, the two-seater sports a super long bonnet that flows into a streamlined roof at the top.
Underneath the bonnet, the Touring Coupe wears BMW’s iconic kidney grille design.
Much like the car’s overall design, BMW kept the paint job minimalistic but threw in some beautiful details.
While it looks grey from afar, the paintwork actually has tiny glass fragments mixed in which almost look like shining blue specs.
The rims were also designed specifically for the car in a beautiful matte bronze color.
Interior
Inside, this car is dripping in understated luxury.
The interior is wrapped in beautiful dual-tone brown leather.
The seats and doors wear a warm brown, while the top half wears a darker, more subtle brown tone.
The brown leather is also complimented by braided stitching which matches the luggage that comes with the car.
Yep, this car comes with three VIP leather bags made with Schedoni leather in Modena.
Power
The Concept Touring Coupe is powered by BMW’s hallmark 6-cylinder in-line engine which produces 340 hp.
Production
For now, this vehicle is just a concept, but BMW has teased the idea of putting it into production if it generates enough interest.
Even if the car did make it to production, it would likely be extremely limited.
