The focus on the customer and their requirements underpins the BMW
Group’s presentation of the next steps on the road to digital and
intelligent connectivity between the driver and vehicle at this year’s
Mobile World Congress (MWC) in Barcelona, taking place from 26
February –1 March.
Another handy digital service will be introduced in 2018 to
further facilitate seamless connectivity. The BMW Digital
Key will make it possible to unlock a BMW using a
smartphone. What’s more, up to five digital copies of the key can be
shared with other users.
Widespread connectivity will also be an essential requirement for
autonomous driving inthefuture. In view of this, theoutdoor area of
the BMW Group stand will feature a BMW i3 in action as part of a
showcase designed to demonstrate that
autonomous driving (Level 5) is set to become a
reality in the not-too-distant future.
A new technological approach to full connectivity between
smartphones and vehicles will also be on show. The eSIM
will soon make it possible to incorporate the vehicle into
the user’s existing mobile phone contract, paving the way for a
whole range of different functions.

Fuel consumption, CO2 emission figures and power consumption and range were measured using the methods required according to Regulation VO (EC) 2007/715 as amended. They refer to vehicles on the German automotive market. For ranges, the NEDC figures take into account differences in the selected wheel and tyre size, while the WLTP figures take into account the effects of any optional equipment.
All figures have already been calculated based on the new WLTP test cycle. NEDC figures listed have been adjusted to the NEDC measurement method where applicable. WLTP values are used as a basis for the assessment of taxes and other vehicle-related duties which are (also) based on CO2 emissions and, where applicable, for the purposes of vehicle-specific subsidies. Further information on the WLTP and NEDC measurement procedures is also available at www.bmw.de/wltp.
For further details of the official fuel consumption figures and official specific CO2 emissions of new cars, please refer to the “Manual on the fuel consumption, CO2 emissions and power consumption of new cars”, available at sales outlets free of charge, from Deutsche Automobil Treuhand GmbH (DAT), Hellmuth-Hirth-Str. 1, 73760 Ostfildern-Scharnhausen and at https://www.dat.de/co2/.
