it home reported on september 3 that australian automotive media drive published a blog post yesterday (september 2), interviewing bmw technical engineer dr. stella clarke, who said that e ink color-changing technology will be mass-produced in the next 3-5 years and delivered as early as 2027.

at a media event held in melbourne, the media asked about the timeline for mass production of e ink technology and whether it could be mass-produced within the next 3-5 years. dr. clarke gave a positive answer.

dr. clarke responded as follows: "our vision is to bring it to a wide range of customers. our dream is that in a car factory, there will no longer be a traditional paint booth, but everything can use [e ink], and every car can be sprayed in a variety of colors."

the technology applies the same material used in e-readers such as the kindle to the surface of the car, allowing it to change color instantly while providing maximum stability and requiring very little energy.
