At the front, the concept features pop-up headlights for aerodynamics. BMW previously had this headlight with the M1, one of the brand’s most iconic models in the brand’s portfolio. Today, this type of headlight is not road-legal, which explains why cars like the Mazda MX-5 Miata got rid of it in newer versions.
We can see flat-faced wheels, which, as you may have guessed, favor aerodynamics. The rear end also contributes to the car’s slippery trait, with a Kammback tail design similar to the Coda Tronca commonly seen in Alfa Romeo cars.
While the BMW AVT didn’t see production, it does pose similarities with the Volkswagen XL1. Limited to 250 examples, the XL1 is one of the most aerodynamic cars ever, boasting a drag coefficient of 0.19 Cd. That beats modern-day EVs like the Lucid Air and Tesla Model S.
