BMW debuts color-changing iX3 Flow Edition with E Ink exterior at Beijing Auto Show 2026

BMW unveiled the iX3 Flow Edition at the Beijing Auto Show 2026, bringing a color-changing E Ink exterior to a production vehicle.

The bonnet uses E Ink Prism technology that has been tested for automotive durability and safety.

The move turns BMW’s earlier iX Flow and i Vision Dee concepts into a real, road-ready feature.

Programmable exteriors could support personalization, thermal management, and vehicle status signaling.
