The BMW Gina


The GINA car concept turns the idea of a typical car exterior on its head. This shape-shifting super-car (currently in the BMW Museum in Munich) is an acronym derived from the phrase "Geometry Infinite Adapatation" (GINA) and has a textile skin that takes about two hours to wrap around the car. Based on the car's various configurations, it folds, stretches and buckles to offer up a flexibility rarely (if ever) found on an automobile. 
(Just hope it doesn't hit a snag.)

OK so here’s the trick question: which way is the car facing?

If you said “right” you are correct. 
With the wheelbase so short and the overhangs (front one, anyway) so long,
it must have been rather odd to drive – perhaps a bit like a bus.

And that glasshouse is certainly unique...
