WE CREATE EXCEPTIONS.
TO MAKE YOU FEEL EXCEPTIONAL.
BMW Design shows you at a glance what you can experience with a BMW: dynamics, joy and passion. For decades, a variety of striking design features has influenced the artistic style of BMW. You’ll still find these in every single BMW produced today. Interpreted in a unique way.
L-shaped rear lights: glowing expression.
The characteristic L-shaped rear lights are strikingly visible at night and their allure holds firm in the daytime too. The LED lights appear to glow from within, while their horizontal positioning guarantees recognition and emphasises the vehicle’s sporty and stable frame.
Hofmeister Kink: dynamic finesse.
The Hofmeister kink, named after Wilhelm Hofmeister, the head of BMW body design at the time, is the term for the counter curve in the window-outline at the base of the rear roof pillar. It made its debut in 1961 and has graced almost every BMW produced since then, drawing attention to the vehicle’s dynamic urge to move and the typical BMW rear-wheel drive.
Crease Line: distinctively stylish.
The characteristic tapered shape flows from the front to the rear of the vehicle and highlights its dynamic forward thrust. This sophisticated look propels the vehicle forward even when it’s standing still, an effect that’s further enhanced by the door handles meticulously integrated into the crease.
The Coupé Line: flowing elegance.
Let your gaze wander from the striking front to the dynamically curved body and on to the broad, powerful rear. The markedly elongated silhouette blends self-assurance with agile dynamics.
Engine sound: experience it with all your senses.
BMW Design isn’t just something you see – you hear and feel it too. Experts in research centres develop the particular sound and temperament of each engine. This allows the BMW to dazzle with its unmistakeable sound as well as its appearance. Experience it for yourself!

WE THINK ABOUT MOBILITY.
TO KEEP YOU UPDATED WHEREVER YOU GO.
A BMW lets you experience mobility when you’re driving and when you’re thinking. You’ll find the most innovative services by BMW ConnectedDrive in your BMW with numerous apps that connect your vehicle to your smartphone so you can rediscover driving pleasure again and again.
Snap-in adapter
The best connection on the move: the snap-in adapter offers a secure location for current mobile phones, connects your phone with the hands-free device and charges the batteries at the same time.
EfficientDynamics principle:
Maximise joy.
Minimise consumption.
Over the course of the last two model generations, the BMW Group has reduced their European fleet’s consumption by 30%. The critical factor here: EfficientDynamics – a standard feature in every new BMW. Behind this isn’t just a single technology, but a comprehensive and coordinated package of measures.
Air vent control:
Divert the air flow.
Increase efficiency.
Improved aerodynamics and short cold-run phases: the air vents between the double kidneys and the radiator reduce consumption and emission levels from the moment you start driving.
Normally the air vents are kept closed and direct the air flow around the radiator to improve aerodynamics. The engine management system only opens the vents when extra cooling is required.
Driving Experience Control:
Lower consumption.
Gain kilometres.
Less consumption at the touch of a button? No problem: when you select ECO PRO Mode with the Driving Experience Control an intelligent efficiency system goes to work and allows reduced consumption of up to 20% (depending on individual driving style). This remarkable result was proven consumption study conducted by BMW.
Sailing:
Step off the accelerator.
Step up efficiency.
Go sailing in a hybrid vehicle: just take your foot off the accelerator. This disconnects the combustion engine from the drive train; the vehicle uses kinetic energy to propel itself forward and thus glides along the road without consuming fuel. Activating ECO PRO Mode allows the car to glide at up to 160 km/h and thus save even more fuel.
Aero wheel rim:
Reduce resistance.
Nurture aerodynamics.
Perfect aerodynamics for optimising fuel consumption doesn't begin and end with the bodywork: recently developed by BMW, the resistance-optimised aero wheel rims in turbine wheel design counter this turbulence effectively by channelling the air along the sides of the vehicle and reducing wind resistance. This reduces fuel consumption and simultaneously increases driving pleasure.
Auto Start Stop function:
Stop automatically.
Save immediately.
Red lights, traffic jams, road works – in everyday driving situations, there are countless instances where the engine is idling, unnecessarily burning fuel. The Auto Start Stop function switches off the engine when the vehicle stops temporarily and thus avoids unnecessary fuel consumption.
Valvetronic:
Lower consumption.
Increase performance.
Just like in sports, top performance in a vehicle requires the right breathing techniques. Engines with BMW TwinPower Turbo technology combine a TwinScroll turbocharger with Valvetronic, Double-Vanos and High Precision Injection. Valvetronic, the innovative valve control system, allows the engine to ‘breathe more freely’ and thus achieve impressive performance values as well as high torque. And all that with markedly reduced consumption.
WE CARE ABOUT THE LITTLE THINGS.
SO A LITTLE GOES AN EVEN LONGER WAY.
EfficientDynamics is the multiple award-winning philosophy from BMW that makes dynamics sustainable. In this process, all technologies work together to deliver more power with less consumption and increase driving pleasure.
WE THINK AHEAD.
TO LET YOU GET AHEAD.
An innovation that takes you further than your five senses ever could: the BMW Head-Up Display by BMW ConnectedDrive displays navigation information, person recognition via BMW Night Vision, Lane Departure Warning information, current speed limits as well as overtaking bans directly in your field of vision, while you keep your eyes on the road. Test it for yourself!
