This Vantablack BMW is the darkest car in the world
Вставка
- Опубліковано 27 сер 2019
- The new BMW X6 will be with us soon, being launched at the upcoming Frankfurt Motor Show. But this specific one is rather unique - it is covered in Vantablack, the darkest manmade material in the world. Mike Fernie gives us a walkaround of this ultra dark car and discovers the science behind Vantablack's ability to be the blackest of black. Standing for Vertically Aligned Nano Tube Array, this material can make 3D shapes completely disappear which - in the aesthetically-challenged X6's case - isn't too bad a result. Oh, and there was a grenade-proof X5 there too. Enjoy the video!

That's pretty clever. I enjoyed this comment. I'm going to guess it gets lost on all the non gamer old timers though.
EA : That would be $9.99 for the car and surprise mechanic for the color
@@anchorbait6662 number one it's a BMW not a VW Bora number 2 I am basically one of the old-timers you're talking about and ironically enough this channel talks about real world cars and y'all want to talk about video games. Don't they have channels on UA-cam for crap like that? Wait a minute let me reiterate this for you wannabe car guys but stuck sitting at the video game boys at least the American ones. What we know as a VW Jetta was sold in Germany as a VW Bora. It was possibly sold in other countries as the Bora but let's be honest I went with Germany because that's where VW originates. Since y'all youngsters probably don't take the time to do the forza Vista.
@@TA_Plus_Hemi what are you talking about? Im an adult and don't have time for video games. I never said anything about a BMW or a VW. I just thought it was a clever comment. Sounds like you should take YT a little less seriously. Nobody's trying to insult your impeccable car knowledge skills. Good day Sir
Imagine how stealthy an electric car would be if you turned of the lights and removed the badges
I admire your way of thinking
I'd like to see that in a Bond movie!
Yea itd be great exept for ppl driving into you bc your car is invisible .... Black and grey colours on cars on the road should be forbidden.
@@tipips well yeah but more often than not the stealth you'd be using it for would be to have people think not see you on an adjacent road
There was already a video done on this material. It’s too dark for low light environments and sticks out. You would need complete darkness and even then inferred captures the surrounding environments as lighter than this material so it’s not an optional camouflage
"This color is actually so dark that the protons cannot escape it"
Engine heat: 📈
Funny
Vanta black can absorb 99.9% of light, but it's absorbing 0% of bird poo
s4j1m more like a lot of dead birds who can’t see the car coming . 👀
@@lombardo141 yeah, as if the birds roam on the road at night
Birds will go out of their way to poop on it.
@S4j1m LAME 👎🏽
If birds hit that car it make lucky but another car because of the color it rather worst
Imagine parking this at night and somebody tries take ur parking spot
Hahahahahahaha
Rawddy Richh bro. You just broke my mind
Well we know that there has to be some sort of light there in order for the driver to be able to drive and vantablack car would be much darker than its surrounding.
@@parampreetsingh8768 well well don't we have a buzz killer here.
Lol,those guys put "Vantablack" in the video,everyone just wanted to see a picture of the car then they proced to THE NEW BMW X666 COMES WITH 6 LAYERS OF GLASS,SUPER BREAKES BUY NOW

Imagine late at night, your pulling into a parking spot, and you hit a an invisible vantablack x6. Still cool though
😂
actually you will see a pitch black blob of thing, which will be even more terrifying
@@cenakaze leave the bar drunk as shit next thing you know your trippin balls because of a black whole in your face
Bruh how do you not see the thing with paint that's darker than the surroundings at night and rear lights and windows and all that which still reflect light.
Dan Odden. typical black cars @ night are already over 40% more likely to get hit than none-black cars.
Just turn off the lights when the cops start chasing you.
Incognito mode
Its called "The Ghost Car" 🚗 🚔
Since it’s so dark you would stick out ALOT
I think it would actually work tho- especially at night and when you already memorized the road and be careful to not hit anything, the electric version would absolutely be a stealth car at night.
No lie I’ve actually done that in a POS 82 Volkswagen Rabbit. I was 17 and when they passed I was as hard a rock 😂
Oh yeah this car is amazing, just imagine driving next to it in the dark and it turns without signal but you can't see it. Just amazing...
This color is only available for Bruce Wayne

They should put this on prototype cars to hide body lines
thats a good idea but id imagine this stuff is superrrrrrr expensive
Raptor867 and then get into an accident because people can’t really see it.
the biggest problem is that it gets dirty really, really quickly
It would have cooling problems too... specially in prototypes
@@yugarten8523 have you ever seen a car with matte paint when it hasn't been cleaned seconds ago? Imagine that, times 100
Imagine if batman painted his Lamborghini in this. Christian bale can race through the streets unnoticed at night.
Supercool.. I'm amazed by the colour 😍🤘🔥🔥🔥
BMW has already used Vantablack on their blinker bulbs for years.
Hahaha you made my day bro
Making all day foglight usage a prudent safety feature for drivers.

I think a Tesla model S in VantaBlack would be frightening, you don't see it coming, you don't hear it coming, but it still goes like the clappers.

Comment of the day
🤣 🤣 🤣
*”CRAP, WHERE DID I PARK MY CAR?!”*
@Ross tbf it'll still be hard to see at night w/o enough lights
I bet you're the same type of person who turned a claim in to their insurance company for rain damage on the interior of their convertible because you lock the keys inside with the windows up and you couldn't get in to put the top up. At least that is how short-sighted your comment sounds to me
@@jefez75 you're right because of all that vantablack on the lights the license plates the mirrors the windows, pretty much all the things on a car other than body panels that reflect light will now be unable to reflect light because the body panels were painted that color. As far as without enough lights any car is hard to see in the dark without enough lights. I had a white Dodge Charger in my garage but with the lights out for all I know it could have been a black workbench or a green ladder.
@Ross dude is not just streetlights though think it if it's driving at night time the lights are on if it's parked at night time and you can't see it even without street lights where the hell are you parked that lights from homes or businesses or passing cars will not reflect off the windows or other reflective surfaces like light lenses or the mirrors?

Don't forget Murciélago means literally Bat in italian.
LipColt it doesn’t mean anything in Italian lol
LipColt it means bat in latins and Murcielago was a famous fighter bull back in the history in spain and thats how they name the car.
Lamborghini Countach I think it means bat in Spanish but I’m not completely sure
5.000 subs with videos ? It does.
the nano tubes would make this way darker. the sprayed stuff you can see the light easily being absorbed. but that'll be a trippy paint job to drive around with
imagine seeing this at night under the street lights and it's darker than it's own shadow lol
Forgetting to put on your headlights is a death sentence
You'd still have the reflectors, windows and license plate.
Which would appear to be floating, but still.
@@Spenceley You can't see windows or reflectors in 2:12. The license plate is barely visible
Having them on wouldn't make a difference either, lol
Ikr loool. It’s still dangerous. And for example someone might hit it in the parking lot in the night as they wont notice it
@@biplabkumarghosh6300 that's because reflectors rely on external light . . . they reflect stuff. This is a dark showroom, so that makes sense.

If you forget to turn on your lights and drive with this in the dark watch out. It port has automatic lights though has to otherwise people turn into you.
Possibly the best application for Vanta Black: hiding the hideous form and shape of an X6

Basically

Pros- you dark AF and looks kinda kewl..
Cons- you are a target on the road since it’s so hard to see you especially during bad weather, the car would be impossible to keep clean, and with it being such a true black in color you are guaranteed to come back to a 120F car every time you get in it in summer..
Conclusion- worth it 💀
Are there any pictures of it outside? I wonder how dark it really is outside of a studio environment.
Lλmbicious just as dark trust me
This isn't real vantablack, it's a mix. Vantablacking the whole car is incredibly stupid and expensive
@@Adlore why stupid?
