What’s more the all new BMW LGND incorporates many styling cues which are synonymous with the Bavarian marque, while also utilising the very latest in footwear development technology. In addition to chrome accents - inspired by M4 trim pieces - and adaptive reflective materials - inspired by the M4’s unique headlight system - and dynamic T-Toe shape - spread by the M4’s aggressive bonnet styling - the BMW LGND also features the world famous “Hofmeister Knick”.

Just like BMW’s kidney front grille, the Hofmeister Knick is a design signature calling-card for the manufacturer, and has been proudly featured on every model since the advent of the BMW Neue Klasse models in 1961. Named after its creator, Wilhelm Hofmeister, who led the BMW design department between 1955 and 1970, the feature is the bend at the C-Pillar, representing a turn in the window lines which separates the rear side windows from the rear glass.
