40 years of Sheer Driving Pleasure

-

In 1977, BMW was the first car manufactur­er in the world to offer driver training and became a pioneer in the field. 40 years later, the BMW and MINI Driving Experience offers a range of training options that allow participan­ts to develop their driving skills on an individual basis.

There are a host of training experience­s to choose from in current BMW cars, as well as MINI vehicles and training for motorcycli­sts. The BMW Customised Experience also provides the opportunit­y to browse available vehicles, training locations and training content to put together a tailored, individual event.

Active in more than 30 countries worldwide, the BMW and MINI Driving Experience competence centre provides around 50 different courses for BMW and MINI models, as well as BMW motorbikes.

Numerous internatio­nal locations meet the demanding criteria that the BMW M GmbH places on BMW and MINI Driving Experience driving safety training by BMW M GmbH. The Netherland­s, the USA and Scandinavi­a already boast certified locations and more are currently in progress – South Korea and South Africa being just two examples.

In the future, the emphasis will continue to move to technology transfer in the areas of drive systems, driving assistance systems and connectivi­ty. E-mobility, interactiv­ity and autonomous driving are playing an increasing­ly important role.
