In conjunction with the 2023 M4NTAP Festival, BMW Malaysia has unveiled the latest iteration of the compact high-performance coupé from BMW M, the new M2. It made its global debut back in 2022, replacing the F87 model.
The new M2, codenamed G87, features a new unframed kidney grille design with horizontal slats complemented by large, nearly square-shaped air intakes, that denote the high cooling requirements of the engine and brake system.

BMW Malaysia has announced that the New BMW i4 eDrive35 will be available in two new variations: the BMW i4 eDrive35 and the BMW i4 eDrive35 M Sport and joins the first-ever BMW i4 M50, which was unveiled at the Malaysia Autoshow 2023 earlier this year.
The new BMW i4 eDrive35 has a four-door Gran Coupé body style, an innovative design, and improved aerodynamics. Both versions have a sharp and recognisable look that emphasises the kidney grille design with horizontal slates from the front. The modern LED headlights further emphasise this.

In order to build a network of 30,000 new EV fast-charging stations, seven major manufacturers have joined forces. The first chargers are expected to be operational in the United States in the second half of 2024 and in Canada at a later stage thanks to a joint venture by BMW, General Motors, Honda, Hyundai, Kia, Mercedes-Benz, and Stellantis.
Both the Combined Charging System (CCS) and Tesla’s exclusive North American Charging Standard (NACS) connections are supported by these chargers. Several manufacturers, like Mercedes-Benz and GM, who are involved in this joint venture, have already committed to use these NACS connections in the near future.

For more than six years, BMW has hinted at an electric 5 series, and now, the BMW i5‘s official production has begun. The BMW Group Plant Dingolfing, the largest European production facility for the manufacturer, is where the electric vehicle (EV) will be produced for now.
The BMW i5 is a mid-sized sedan that falls in the all-electric lineup between the i4 and i7 and will be offered alongside the petrol-powered 5-Series. The BMW 5 Series is now in its eighth generation and BMW anticipates a growth in EV manufacturing to over 40% in the upcoming year.

As predicted, the M3 Touring is in high demand in Europe, and the brand is barely keeping up with deliveries. According to BMW M CEO Frank van Meel, the company even doubled production capacity at its site in Munich to keep up.
The M3 Touring’s popularity has shocked the firm, according to the CEO.
According to reports, BMW M has been considering a lighter and more potent CS version of the M3 Touring because of the high demand for the model. The specific modifications that may be done to this model are unknown, but it stands to reason that it would benefit from a variety of new aerodynamic enhancements and could make use of various M Performance Parts.

BMW Malaysia today announced the official pricing of the All-Electric BMW i7 – the first and highly anticipated all-electric sedan of its class, adding to the BMW Group’s line-up of electrified vehicles for the Malaysian market.

The New BMW 750e xDrive M Sport and New BMW 750e xDrive Pure Excellence are the newest additions to the ultra-luxurious BMW 7 Series lineup in Malaysia.
These two new models offer electrified drivetrains that feature a range of cutting-edge technology and low-carbon driving experiences without compromising on performance.
While the luxury-focused Pure Excellence variant which is limited to just 48 exclusive units in Malaysia, exudes a harmonic blend of elegance, comfort, and convenience, the other model – the BMW 750e xDrive M Sport – adds a number of additional sporting design features to the presidential sedan.
The updated models will also include the most advanced BMW eDrive technology for plug-in hybrid electric vehicles, which will be paired with the BMW xDrive intelligent all-wheel drive system for maximum power.
A unique kind of in-car gaming will be made available for the first time in the new BMW 5 Series thanks to a partnership between the BMW Group and the game platform AirConsole. While the car is still, the driver and passengers can spend the time by playing ‘casual games’. The AirConsole app will progressively be made available in other BMW automobiles in addition to the new BMW 5 Series that was just launched.
N-Dream AG is a Zurich-based firm that is revolutionising the video game business and is the creator of AirConsole. AirConsole is driving the advancement of casual gaming in automobiles in collaboration with BMW.
A special BMW i5 with a distinctive gaming aesthetic created by BMW Group Design is being unveiled in conjunction with the debut of the new BMW 5 Series. Technically and aesthetically, this livery turns the BMW 5 Series saloon into the ideal gaming station.
At the Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este 2023 opening, the BMW Group presented its BMW Concept Touring Coupé for the first time. The closed two-seater, which was created for a single piece of manufacture, carries on the legacy of iconic BMW classics.

From the front, the two-door fastback resembles the recently updated Z4 roadster identically. However, the quarter-front perspective reveals a completely different animal: sleek and powerful, the restyled silhouette proves to be a classic attention-getter.

The BMW XM is what we would call a somewhat divisive product because it is both the heaviest and most powerful BMW production model in history.
Despite its size and weight, one must respect the level of performance that this enormous SUV offers. The numbers published by the automaker may really be underestimated, as evidenced by a recent test run on the dynamometer. This is something BMW has a reputation for in recent years.
