Teenage Tunisian designer Khalfi Oussama creates the most outlandish BMW since Bangle.
BMW has seen some rather odd looking cars roll off the production line over the past 10 years, but Khalfi Oussama's new X9 off-roader concept coupe takes oddball Beemers to a whole new level.
The 18-year-old designer hasn't offered any information about his concept that could be a proposal for a new Batmobile, but since he hails from the sandy desert landscape of Tunisia in northern Africa, it's fair to say that this is the equivalent of a modern day dune buggy.
The X9 Concept blends the sporty bodylines of a coupe with the rolling stock of an off-roader - much like BMW's chunky yet sporty-looking X6 soft-roader.
The X9's massive wheels and excessively wide (not to mention oddly patterned) tyres combined with its colour-matched side-steps and heavy-duty crash plates front and rear definitely showcase the car's intentions.
Confusing the off-road look, though, is the car's bulging fins, which are a tad reminiscent of Cadillacs of the 1950s - except that the X9's fins stick out, rather than up.
The X9 coupe also carries a new interpretation of BMW's signature kidney grille, although Oussama's version is considerably smaller than the current flock of BMWs. T
he grille sits alongside a set of unique twin-headlights, as well as a pair of tiny foglights that are set into the bumper.
