Speedtop joins BMW Skytop for limited run

0 0 May 28, 2025 Edit this post

Unlike most concepts the BMW Concept Speedtop is set to go into production.

Speedtop reimagines the sporty Touring, blending the elegance of a shooting brake with unique proportions.

Along with last years's BMW Skytop it will be offered to collectors and connoisseurs on a strictly limited basis.

The pronounced V-shape of the front end, with its shark-nose design, slim front lights and illuminated kidney grille, give the BMW Concept Speedtop an unmistakable presence.

The continuation of the central spline from the bonnet over the roof to the rear spoiler gives the car a dynamic touring profile.

The color gradient on the roof, moving from “Floating Sunstone Maroon” to “Floating Sundown Silver”, accentuates this shape.

The athletic design is enhanced by the car’s broad shoulders.

Its elegance is underscored by two-tone, 14-spoke wheels, which have been designed specifically for the BMW Concept Speedtop.

The interior of the BMW Concept Speedtop was designed with a strong focus on even the smallest detail.

Skillfully crafted, traditional brogue-style details accentuate the leather-trimmed surfaces and emphasize the manufactory-level craftsmanship on display.

The two-tone color and material contept creates a connection between the exterior and interior.

The sparkling brown tone of the “Floating Sunstone Maroon” exterior paint is carried over into the interior. Here, the brown “Sundown Maroon” world harmonizes with the light “Moonstone White” of the seats.

The two-tone leather upholstery divides the dynamic and functional areas of the interior.

The visually striking roof spline on the exterior is mirrored as a light beam in the two-tone leather headliner, providing atmospheric, indirect illumination.

The trunk is also leather-covered and refined with brogue-style perforations.

A light beam illuminates the luggage compartment, which is divided into two sections.

This allows large items of luggage to be stowed inside for multi-day trips.

The elaborate craftsmanship of the exterior and interior was realized with the expertise of the Manufactory workshop at the BMW Group plant in Dingolfing.

The virtuosity in the design of the BMW Concept Speedtop is further enhanced through the collaboration with the traditional Italian manufacturer Schedoni.

Known for the production of exclusive and high-quality leather goods by hand, especially in the automotive sector, Schedoni has always stood for the highest quality and customization.

Two storage areas with leather straps behind the seats provide space for two of Schedoni’s made-to-measure bags.

The bags were designed exclusively for the Concept to fit in with its color and material concept. A matching weekend bag can also be accommodated in the trunk.

The concept car’s engine ensures it scales the heights not only in terms of design, but also performance.

It is fitted with the most powerful V8 engine currently offered by BMW.

“Last year, the presentation of the BMW Concept Skytop at the Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este on Lake Como generated great enthusiasm among connoisseurs and automotive enthusiasts,” says Bernd Körber, Senior Vice President BMW Brand and Product Management.

“This led to a strictly limited production run of 50 units. Thanks to this positive response, this year we have decided to also offer the BMW Concept Speedtop in a limited production series of 70 units.

"This extraordinary vehicle is now available for order. We are pleased to be able to offer collectors and enthusiasts another exclusive model.”
