Take from the track. give to the road.

The innovations that power our Ultimate Driving Machines are often inspired by our long history with motorsports. In Munich, the BMW Motorsport division works closely with our Research and Innovation Centre, so as we develop technological advantages for the track we can apply the learnings to our road models.
Never stand still.

In 2012, the BMW Group was named the world’s most sustainable car manufacturer by the Dow Jones Sustainability Index – for the eighth year running.

So as you’d expect, every BMW incorporates innovations from BMW EfficientDynamics – an ever improving suite of technologies that contribute to award winning engine performance, powerful acceleration, lower fuel consumption and reduced exhaust emissions.

BMW vehicles include technology such as ECO PRO mode which – when selected – gears your BMW towards reducing your fuel consumption. This intelligent system optimises your accelerator pedal, gearbox parameters and climate control strategy. It’s this kind of intelligent thinking that keeps the world’s most sustainable car manufacturer in its rightful place – miles in front of the competition.
safety is more than crash protection.

Every BMW delivers a high level of impact protection to safeguard you and your passengers in the unfortunate event of a collision. And because your safety is paramount, BMW also offer an array of intelligent systems to prevent accidents from happening at all.

One such feature is BMW Active Cruise Control. This innovation maintains your desired speed while preserving a pre-defined distance to other vehicles by gently applying the brakes automatically if a car is detected in the lane ahead.

Other features include passive safety features such as seatbelt pre-tensioners, rollover sensors and advanced airbag systems. This combination of innovative technologies' works together to ensure maximum safety, delivering the Ultimate protection for you and your passengers.
Less consumption. more driving pleasure.

Every BMW model incorporates the innovative thinking of BMW EfficientDynamics, a suite of technologies that contribute to award-winning engine performance, powerful acceleration, lower fuel consumption and reduced exhaust emissions.

Vehicles fitted with the 8-speed automatic transmission achieve incredible fuel efficiency with considerably smaller gear steps. Air Vent Control reduces aerodynamic drag by automatically closing the air vents in the front of the radiator when appropriate for the driving conditions and engine temperature. This helps to ensure that the motion of your vehicle is as energy efficient as possible.
a safer, smarter, more comfortable drive.

BMW ConnectedDrive is the umbrella term for all our innovative technologies that network you and your vehicle with the world outside and the traffic around you. The innovations of BMW ConnectedDrive combine to give you greater comfort, safety and infotainment.
