According to BMW CEO Oliver Zipse, the car "demonstrates the possibilities that the combination of hardware and software opens up". This allows the driver to use the digital potential. According to the CEO, the design was inspired by an old chessboard from 1967. The central control is a mixed reality slider that transforms the windshield into a portal of digital experiences periodically. Shy-Tech technology touch sensors allow the vehicle owner to set digital content levels.{{Cite web|url=https://www.bmwusa.com/content/bmwusa/marketUS/bmwusa_com/en/concept-vehicles/ivision-dee.html|title=Introducing The BMW i Vision Dee|publisher=BMW USA|accessdate=20 February 2023}} In terms of dimensions, the model is close to the BMW 3 Series.{{Cite web|language=Russian|url=https://autoreview.ru/news/sedan-bmw-i-vision-dee-i-virtual-naya-real-nost|title=Седан BMW i Vision Dee и виртуальная реальность|website=autoreview.ru|date=2023-01-05|access-date=2023-01-31}} To communicate with the driver, a voice assistant is built into the car.
