Pre-chamber combustion patented by BMW celebrates its premiere. High-efficiency new development makes its series production debut in BMW M models and enables a significant reduction in fuel consumption under high loads. New ignition process is a prime example of the transfer of technology from racing cars to series-production models and helps to meet the requirements of the EU7 standard. Production of the BMW M3 and BMW M4 with BMW M Ignite technology begins in July 2026; the new engine technology will be available for the BMW M2 from August 2026.

The Launchfilm of the BMW M 1000 RR Limited Edition Isle of Mann TT stages the bike in an abstract space. It focuses the specific design elements and product features of this limited edition. The film also contains some footage of POV racing scenes.

The film describes the functionality of the new BMW control unit, including the driving coordinator, called Heart of Joy. We begin in a dark room where the control unit itself is shown from various angles. With a flight through the interior of the Heart of Joy, we land in a collage that showcases BMW’s expertise and experience in developing the typical BMW driving pleasure. Next, we see an X-ray view of the Neue Klasse show car, where the drivetrain, including simplified data streams of the driving coordinator, is displayed. During a curve, force arrows at the wheels explain how the driving coordinator regulates. This is repeated in the next scene during an evasive maneuver on a snow-covered road. Subsequently, we are in an Italian mountain village where the smooth gliding and elegant stopping of the new drive are shown. We end the film with a dynamic driving collage of the Neue Klasse show car.
