For years, BMW drivers in leasing programs faced a familiar dilemma: tune their cars and risk headaches at lease-end, or play it safe and return the car untouched. But that chapter is closing with the arrival of the new BMW M5 (G90) and M5 Touring (G99). For the first time, BMW is offering M Performance […]

BMW is giving the 4 Series Gran Coupe and all-electric i4 a notable lighting upgrade. The optional Adaptive LED Headlights, already designed to provide consistent illumination across different driving conditions, will now be paired with laser taillights. This is the first time the technology has been offered on these models, marking a move to bring

At over €10 billion spent in recent years, Neue Klasse is BMW’s largest investment ever. Although not all of the money has gone into EVs, electrification has played a dominant role. The 2026 iX3 has opened the floodgates to a new family of cars that move away from combustion engines. The NK reboot is central

The M3 Touring is quick wagon. There’s no doubt about that. Even against the greater sports car segment, it really holds its own. But thanks to the wonders of modern tuning — and the delightful powertrain under the M3 Touring’s sheet metal — it turns out, the performance wagon can even give a large section

BMW wasn’t the first automaker to experiment with carbon fiber in road-legal cars. Back in 1992, the legendary McLaren F1 was among the early adopters. The lesser-known Jaguar XJR-15 even preceded the BMW V12-powered supercar by a couple of years. While those two were extremely expensive and rare exotics, the 2013 i3 wasn’t. The quirky

At a recent roundtable, Joachim Post, BMW’s Board Member for Research and Development, spoke candidly about what makes this program a turning point not just for one model, but for

In an increasingly competitive automotive sector, speed is of the essence. Just as Japanese and later Korean brands rose to fame, Chinese automakers now want a piece of the action. Luxury marques born in the world’s largest car market are starting to threaten legacy players. BMW, Mercedes, and Audi are all struggling in China, especially

QUICK LINKS BMW has dabbled with hydrogen for decades — from the Hydrogen 7 luxury sedans of the 2000s to more recent prototypes that quietly tested the limits of fuel cell technology. Now, the company is preparing for its first-ever production hydrogen car. In 2028, the BMW iX5 Hydrogen, based on the upcoming G65-generation X5,

No, we didn’t get the model year wrong in the headline. Although BMW has officially revealed the new iX3 in the United States, it won’t arrive until the 2027 model year. The company plans to begin North American deliveries next summer. In the meantime, the electric SUV made its U.S. debut over the weekend at a

BMW’s lineup is already busy, but the product portfolio expansion is far from over. The Neue Klasse platform, pioneered by the iX3, paves the way for a multitude of fresh products. An i3 sedan will be launched next year, with reports suggesting an i3 Touring and an iX4 will follow. Separately, the next-generation X5, X6,
