BMW introduces its innovative Panoramic iDrive technology, featuring a full-width display stretching across the dashboard. The concept utilizes a new head-up display and a touch-sensitive steering wheel with integrated controls.
BMW has revealed its new Panoramic iDrive technology concept that it will implement in all its new cars, starting with its The comprehensively rejigged display and operating concept is dominated by a full-width display that sits above the dashboard and beneath the windscreen, stretching from A-pillar to A-pillar.

As yet, it’s unclear if the traditional iDrive rotary selector will remain, but all signs point to it being dropped – something BMW has already done with its compact models.
