Woodcliff Lake, NJ – March 9, 2023… BMW of North America has been named the official premium automotive partner for the 2023 BNP Paribas Open, the company announced today. The event gets underway this week at the Indian Wells Tennis Garden in Indian Wells, California with the final matches scheduled for Sunday, March 19.

As the official premium automotive partner of the event, BMW will showcase its growing lineup of vehicles including the all-new BMW M2 and first-ever 653 horsepower hybrid electric BMW XM Sports Activity Vehicle which arrives in U.S. dealerships this month.  Fresh off its competition debut in the IMSA Rolex 24 race at Daytona, the all-new BMW M Hybrid V8 prototype racecar will be on display. Tennis fans will also have the opportunity to test drive BMW’s latest plug-in hybrid and fully electric models including the first-ever BMW i7, BMW iX, and BMW i4 around Indian Wells, and register for a track day session at the BMW Performance Center West in Thermal, California where they can learn to drive some of BMW’s high performance M vehicles. A variety of hospitality and parking options, including complimentary preferred parking for BMW owners directly by the East Gate will be available for select BMW customers in attendance.

“The BNP Paribas Open is a premium event which not only features many of the top performers in the sport, but a wonderful fan experience as well,” said Marcus Casey, Vice President of Marketing, BMW of North America.  “Our goal is to further elevate the fan experience through a robust on-site presence while also using the opportunity to engage with new customer groups. More importantly, through this commitment, we continue to foster the ever-present culture of sports that unites us all.”

Highly regarded by players and fans alike, the annual two-week event has been named ATP Tour Masters 1000 Tournament of the Year and WTA 1000 Tournament of the Year a record-setting eight times (2014-2019, 2021-2022).

“Part of what makes our event so spectacular year-after-year is the dedication of our wonderful partners,” said Philippe Dore, Chief Marketing Officer of Desert Champions and the BNP Paribas Open. “We are thrilled to welcome a world-renowned brand like BMW to the Tennis Paradise family.”
