BMW Group pioneers a new direction with BMW i
Munich. With BMW i, the BMW Group is providing answers to the economic and environmental challenges of a changing world. The new international campaign highlights famous, historically-significant revolutions and draws a similarity to the pioneering character of BMW i. Print ads, internet banners and social media advertising direct viewers to an online video with nine different features showing BMW Group employees in the context of their work for BMW i, as well as e-mobility users. The features showcase various aspects of BMW i, such as the use of sustainable materials, or answer frequently asked questions – such as an electric vehicle’s range. The images and language used in the campaign are based on the same format as the BMW Group sustainability campaign and integrated with
BMW i brand and product communications.
The BMW Group’s “Driving the Next Movement” campaign is also taking a new direction. “The BMW Group’s vision is to shape the mobility of the future. With our clear focus on premium, sustainable mobility, we, as a company, drive change and are providing innovative solutions,” says Bill McAndrews, Vice President Communications Strategy, Corporate and Market Communications
at BMW Group. “For these reasons it is a BMW Group campaign, highlighting how our employees contribute to revolutions, large and small, through their day-to-day work,” McAndrews added.
BMW i will reach out to new target groups for the BMW Group and position the BMW parent brand even more clearly as a sustainable, future-oriented brand. BMW i is revolutionising people’s understanding of mobility with an holistic approach based on customised vehicle concepts with unique design, sustainability throughout the value chain and complementary mobility services.
