YouTube Video RkxFQVRQOTVOTTdpRVJFWEJnRF94VFFRLkYzNkU4NkU3NUI3QkU3OEQ Concept cars usually shout. This one explains.

The BMW Vision Neue Klasse isn’t about wild shapes or sci-fi theater—it’s a roadmap. This is BMW showing what the next generation of electric cars will actually prioritize: simplicity, efficiency, software intelligence, and a very different relationship between the driver and the machine.

From the stripped-back exterior design to an interior that replaces traditional screens with a panoramic display and centralized intelligence, Neue Klasse signals a reset. Fewer gimmicks. Fewer distractions. More clarity.

BMW says this concept previews the architecture, design language, and digital systems that will define its electric vehicles for the next decade. And unlike many concepts, much of what you see here is intended for production.

So this isn’t just “what the future looks like.”
It’s how BMW plans to build it.

BMW Just Showed Us the Car of the Future (And It’s Not What You Expect)

This might be the most subtle—and slightly unsettling—driver-assist feature BMW has ever released.

Filmed in Portugal, this is the BMW i5 M60, and it can change lanes automatically just by tracking your eye movement. Look at the side mirror, confirm with your gaze, and the car does the rest—smoothly, confidently, and without drama.

This isn’t a gimmick. It’s BMW’s next step in human-machine interaction, blending eye-tracking technology with advanced driver assistance systems to reduce workload while keeping the driver firmly in control.

Beyond the tech, the i5 M60 delivers proper M-level performance, a refined electric drivetrain, and the kind of calm stability you expect from BMW’s flagship electric sedan. The real story, though, is how naturally this technology fades into the background once you trust it.

This is not hands-off driving. It’s intent-aware driving.
This BMW Changes Lanes by Reading Your Eyes (Seriously)

The 2026 Audi A6 might be the most quietly important luxury sedan Audi has built in years.

Yes, it has nearly 37 inches of screen space, an augmented head-up display that’s 85 percent larger, and lighting that’s now software-defined front and rear. But here’s the surprise—none of it feels experimental, distracting, or half-baked.

Under the hood, Audi stuck with what works: a 3.0-liter turbocharged V6 making 362 horsepower and 406 pound-feet of torque, paired with a dual-clutch transmission and a rear-biased quattro system that actually thinks ahead. Zero to sixty drops to 4.5 seconds, and it does it without sacrificing refinement.

This A6 also tells a bigger story. Audi originally planned for even-numbered models to go fully electric—but U.S. buyers weren’t done with high-output combustion sedans. So Audi adjusted the roadmap, kept the hardware people want, and quietly delivered one of the most balanced executive sedans on sale.

This is tech that assists instead of interrupts. Software that supports real driving. And proof that strategy still matters.

I’m Nik Miles—and I love the A6, and I love my job.

Marconi fully commits to the chaos by cutting even more isolated clips of Nik and Trish just to play them wildly out of context. Nik is bravely adjusting to “freezing” temps in the 20s and announces he has officially entered thermal underwear season, while Marconi checks in from Chicago at a casual 8 degrees and is absolutely not impressed. Plus, a full round of your questions in Ask Test Miles and a breakdown of the latest automotive news headlines, with the usual side of chaos. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
