LEAK! The BMW Concept Speedtop

The BMW Concept Speedtop
  • Exclusive three-door interpretation of a BMW Touring.
  • Unique color and material concept.
  • Limited-run small series for collectors and enthusiasts.
At the Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este 2025, the renowned celebration of historic vehicles on the shores of Lake Como in Italy, BMW is presenting an exclusive new concept car that will subsequently be made available for purchase in a small series.

The BMW Concept Speedtop reimagines the sporty Touring, blending the elegance of a shooting brake with unique proportions.

“A true BMW exudes dynamism and elegance even when it’s standing still,” says Adrian van Hooydonk, Head of BMW Group Design. “And that’s also the case with our new concept car. The BMW Concept Speedtop is characterised first of all by its profile. It is very unique in the automotive industry. In this way, we have created an exclamation mark for our entire lineup of vehicles, especially for the Touring models.”

The generous interior invites weekend getaways for two. High-quality materials, the focus on every detail, and the stylistic connection between exterior and interior are testaments to its true craftsmanship.

The BMW Concept Speedtop shares its eye-catching form language with the BMW Skytop and will be offered to collectors and connoisseurs in a strictly limited small series.

Unique profile, dynamic proportions.

The pronounced V-shape of the front end, with its shark-nose design, the slim front lights, and the illuminated kidney grille give the BMW Concept Speedtop an unmistakable presence.

The continuation of the central spline from the bonnet over the roof to the rear spoiler gives the car a dynamic Touring profile. The color gradient on the roof, moving from “Floating Sunstone Maroon” to “Floating Sundown Silver”, accentuates this shape. The athletic design is enhanced by the car’s broad shoulders. Its elegance is underscored by two-tone, 14-spoke wheels, which have been designed specifically for the BMW Concept Speedtop.

Luxurious craftsmanship.

The interior of the BMW Concept Speedtop was designed with a strong focus on even the smallest detail. Skillfully crafted, traditional brogue-style details accentuate the leather-trimmed surfaces and emphasize the manufactory-level craftsmanship on display.

The two-tone color and material concept creates a connection between the exterior and interior. The sparkling brown tone of the “Floating Sunstone Maroon” exterior paint is carried over into the interior. Here, the brown “Sundown Maroon” world harmonizes with the light “Moonstone White” of the seats. The two-tone leather upholstery divides the dynamic and functional areas of the interior. The visually striking roof spline on the exterior is mirrored as a light beam in the two-tone leather headliner, providing atmospheric, indirect illumination.

The trunk is also leather-covered and refined with brogue-style perforations. A light beam illuminates the luggage compartment, which is divided into two sections. This allows large items of luggage to be stowed inside for multi-day trips. The elaborate craftsmanship of the exterior and interior was realized with the expertise of the Manufactory workshop at the BMW Group plant in Dingolfing.

The virtuosity in the design of the BMW Concept Speedtop is further enhanced through the collaboration with the traditional Italian manufacturer Schedoni. Known for the production of exclusive and high-quality leather goods by hand, especially in the automotive sector, Schedoni has always stood for the highest quality and customization.

Two storage areas with leather straps behind the seats provide space for two of Schedoni’s made-to-measure bags. The bags were designed exclusively for the Concept to fit in with its color and material concept. A matching weekend bag can also be accommodated in the trunk.

Most powerful V8 in the portfolio and limited-run small series.

The concept car’s engine ensures it scales the heights not only in terms of design, but also performance. It is fitted with the most powerful V8 engine currently offered by BMW.

“Last year, the presentation of the BMW Concept Skytop at the Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este on Lake Como generated great enthusiasm among connoisseurs and atuomotive enthusiasts,” says Bernd Körber, Senior Vice President BMW Brand and Product Management. “This led to a strictly limited production run of 50 units. Thanks to this positive response, this year we have decided to also offer the BMW Concept Speedtop in a limited production series of 70 units. This extraordinary vehicle is now available for order. We are pleased to be able to offer collectors and enthusiasts another exclusive model.”

Over 11 years ago now...but THIS was IMHO BMW's last absolute "masterclass slam dunk" in terms of conceptual exterior design. Still as crisp and fresh as it can be. And such a pity that the vast majority of its elements did not accurately find their way into BMW serial production sedans. Only bits and pieces.

Totally agree, even though already there the kidneys tended to be out of proportion.

The Skytop and Speedtop look kinda obsolete from the start.
The NK makes them really look like an abandoned project from the last decade, which I can image that’s exactly the case.

Ingenious. As I said Bespoke design on an outgoing architecture. For many they will be bought as a pair. That’s a Million right away.
The ratio of 50 Skytop and 70 Speedtops. We know Skytop is sold so the onus is on the 70 units which will be no doubt sold.
Profitable too.

i'm dreaming of a taycan sport turismo competitor... give it two more doors and this could be it (design wise)
 
Fascinating that BMW are giving the 8-Series chassis a second life by repurposing it for one-off cars. It’s great new learning for them E.g people are unwilling to buy an 850/M8 but proportionately, there are more people willing to buy a reskinned one for 5x the price. Bravo!

This is what Aston Martin are doing, but the BMW price multi is higher. Mercedes, Land Rover and Audi are nowhere in this game.

My only nitpick is that the switch gear looks jarring in gloss black. It reminds you too much that you are sitting in a mass produced car with switch gear from a 320d. They could have spray painted them brushed silver for the car. It would have made a big difference. Other than that, it’s gorgeous and NOT a hybrid!!!
