The vantablack vbx2 coating foregrounds these fundamental aspects of automotive design, without any distraction from light and reflections. This bmw x6 is the only vehicle in the world to feature a vantablack vbx2 paint finish, and is contrasted with design highlights like the optional iconic glow kidney grille and its standard lighting systems. Bmw tapped surrey nanosystems, the company that stumbled onto vantablack a few years ago, to cover one of its new x6s in a newer version of the substance called vbx2.
(the verge actually just visited surrey nanosystems' uk headquarters to get a look at vantablack up close, check it out.)
Light energy striking the vantablack surface enters the space between the nanotubes and is rapidly absorbed as it 'bounces' from tube to tube and simply cannot escape as the. The x6 vbx6 is the result of a collaboration between bmw and surrey nanosystems, the inventors of the vantablack technology. The bmw x6 show car has been coated with the vantablack variant vbx2, which was originally developed for the fields of architecture and science. I read they deliberately made the vantablack slightly less absorbing as otherwise you would not see the cars lines at all.
