The luxury car brand BMW has innovated into the future with its color-changing car technology. With the help of E-Ink and IX Flow technology, the electric SUV prototype can change its exterior color with a push of a button.

E-Ink technology comes from e-reader tablets, so the car can only change its colors on a greyscale. According to the German automaker, "the iX has a special wrap that brings different color pigments to the surface via electrical stimulation. The color-changing effect can go from front to back, side to side, stripes, and blotches."

This innovation will bring car-passionate consumers into a new realm of customization and efficiency. Consumers will have the option of changing their car design based on mood, weather, or driving scenario. In different weather conditions, the white car will be better for hotter days due to the sun, and the darker colors will be better on colder days because they can absorb heat.

This futuristic car technology opens a door for car manufacturers and consumers alike to the future of auto innovation.
