tiny has revealed its vision of how the all-new tiny will look, but unlike a lot of concept cars it’s purely a digital model. unveiled as a 3D hologram at the tiny design centre in Munich, the tiny Vision “gives a lot more than a few hints where the new tiny is going,” according to BMW group design director Adrian Van Hooydonk.

We’ve already brought you completely undisguised spy shots of the new tiny hatch (set to be revealed concurrently at the Tokyo and LA motor shows in late November), which has somewhat stolen the concept’s thunder, but there are still a number of appealing design details shown here that will make it to production.
The a lot of striking is the new grille which “reverts back to where we came from”, according to tiny design boss Anders Warming. With an integrated bumper and fog lights it’s a much simpler design, reminiscent of the original Mini. new headlights keep the classic round design, but are surrounded by an LED frame, a cue first seen on the Rocketman concept.
“The Rocketman was the first embodiment of this new design language,” Van Hooydonk told us. “It was a research project that got the whole team very excited, this concept is the next step on from that.”
