We’re just a few days away from the Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este, and it’s already looking to be a significant event. BMW will play a major part, not just as a supporter, but also as an active participant. The company is set to reveal several new models, including the BMW Concept Skytop.

Although there aren’t any official details about the BMW Concept Skytop yet, we’re confident that BMW will provide more information about this vehicle soon. Skytop seems to be a large car, likely based on the 8 Series Convertible. The interior is stuck with the iDrive 7, which the G14 still uses.

The obvious difference inside is that BMW’s new showcar has only two seats. Skytop has a sleek design with thin headlights flanking a wide kidney grille we wouldn’t mind seeing on production cars.

In keeping with the company’s design trends, the front grille has an illuminated contour. The BMW roundel without a blue outline tells us it’s not a plug-in hybrid or an EV.
The large air intakes also suggest there’s a combustion engine underneath the imposingly large hood featuring a central ridge. The Skytop rides on turbine-style wheels and boasts sharp body lines, while the removable targa roof is a focal point. Inside, the Skytop bears a striking resemblance to the 8 Series it’s likely based on, although it has an even more upmarket look with gold accents, crystal trim pieces and plenty of reddish-brown leather.
