BEST BMW TECHNOLOGY FEATURES FOR YOUR NEXT ROAD TRIP
Going on a road trip is one of the most exciting parts of summer, but how do you make sure your road trip goes smoothly? Packing, planning, and preparing can only do so much. That’s why BMW makes it easy to access all your playlists, enjoy the most efficient navigation, and keep all your passengers comfortable. Add these amazing features to the great fuel economy, comfortable interior, flexible cargo space, and outstanding ride quality, and there’s no better vehicle to take on your next adventure than a BMW.
Protection for the Long Haul
Safety is always important, especially on roads that you may not be familiar with. For 2021, the available BMW Driver Assistance Features improve upon previous generations, including safety features designed to prevent avoidable accidents, as well as react to the unavoidable ones. Thanks to industry-leading autonomous driving technology, radar, and cameras, it's never been safer to drive a new BMW. Features like Adaptive Cruise Control, Lane Keeping Assist, Traffic Jam Assistance, Fatigue and Focus Alert, and Active Blind Spot Detection all reduce driving fatigue on long journeys.
A Soundtrack for Your Journey
One of the most important aspects of any trip is the playlist. If you’re heading into work, you need motivating tunes. When you’re planning a long trip, you need songs that make you want to sing along. But how do you get them from your smartphone to your car’s speakers? BMW has the solution. Actually, the automaker created may solutions. From USB ports that connect and charge to auxiliary input, there are tons of ways to connect your devices. Bluetooth®, SiriusXM® Radio, and Apple CarPlay™ are available on some models, so you can integrate your car into your busy life better than ever. The available harmon/kardon® Sound System features speakers that have been strategically placed throughout the cabin to engulf you and your passengers in sound production you only imagined possible in a music engineering studio.
Navigation to Take You There
BMW models not only make your road trip more enjoyable, but also more efficient. The BMW navigation system is lightning-fast and allows you to find your destination with the user-friendly interface, or by voice commands. Voice guidance and turn by turn map directions from this advanced system will help you reach your destination using the best route. With optional Advanced Real-Time Traffic Information, you can minimize your time spent driving, and make the most of your trip. When properly equipped, these features can take the stress out of traveling.
Command Center
Turn your BMW vehicle cockpit into your own personal command center with the iDrive 7.0 system. This user-friendly interface is inspired by the technology you use intuitively every day—your smartphone. You can control navigation and infotainment through voice command, touchscreen, gestures, or the iDrive touchpad Controller. The result is an interior that looks as sleek and modern as the exterior of each BMW model, and performs as seamlessly as the drivetrain.
No matter where the road takes you this summer, BMW is here to make the trip as smooth as possible. The latest technology, the most comfortable interior appointments, and the innovative safety packed in every BMW model allow you to focus on making memories with your loved ones.
