The new BMW logo has been unveiled by the brand to help usher the automotive company into a new era that's focused on the future of transportation. Debuted on the new BMW Concept i4, the logo makes a few distinct changes to the iconic decal that has undergone a rather intensive redesign. The logo now features a design that is completely flat, and which utilizes a new font in order to strike a balance between the most recent iteration and the original designs previous in the 20th century.
The new BMW logo is no longer characterized by a predominantly black design, but instead allows the color of the vehicle itself to shine through thanks to the aforementioned see-through aesthetic of the decal.
