1. BMWs Are Fun to Drive

BMW vehicles have been ruling racetracks across the globe since the early 1970s. All that experience and expert engineering has been distilled into the M Performance lineup. It includes models like:

• M2
• M3
• M4
• M8
• X3 M
• X5 M

The BMW M8 Competition Coupe is perhaps one of the most impressive models in the lineup. This tour-de-force comes with a potent 4.4L V8 that delivers 617 horsepower that can catapult you from 0 to 60 MPH in only three seconds.

2. All-Electric Innovation

As the automotive industry moves into the future of travel, all-electric vehicles are on the rise. BMW is one manufacturer that's proudly leading the charge. It started years ago with the original i3. Now, they've expanded to include the i4 and the iX.

BMW's electric vehicles are eco-friendly before they even hit the street. They're produced in plants that use 100% renewable energy. All wood accents are sourced in cooperation with the Forest Stewardship Council, and interior amenities are crafted from recycled plastic and nylon.

3. BMW Vehicles Are Safe

BMW has been a pioneer in vehicle safety since their inception. They were one of the first manufacturers to introduce traction control in the late 1980s, and they continue their innovative ways today. Most models come with Active Driving Assistant, a safety suite that offers:

• Frontal Collision Warning
• Active Blind Spot Detection
• Lane Departure Warning
• Speed Limit Info

The Active Protection System is also available with most models. When it detects an imminent collision, it prepares the vehicle by automatically tightening the seat belts, closing the windows, and activating post-crash braking.

4. Reliability Is the Name of the Game

In the 5-year span between 2017 and 2021, BMW vehicles received 14 J.D. Power Quality awards. These awards are given to the brand which has had the fewest problems reported by 100 owners during the first 90 days of ownership. It's a great indicator of long-term dependability.

In the same time span, BMW also received four J.D. Power Vehicle Dependability awards. It's given to the brand with the fewest problems reported by 100 owners during the last 12 months with their 3-year-old vehicle.

5. BMW Has One of the Best CPO Programs Around

If you're thinking about buying certified pre-owned (CPO), BMW is the way to go. In order to qualify for the program, a vehicle must have more than 300 miles but fewer than 60,000 miles on the odometer. That means the vehicle you choose will have plenty of experience but lots of life left for your next adventure.

CPO models must also pass a 360-degree vehicle inspection that checks mechanical components, electrical systems, and everything in between. They're also backed by a BMW Certified Pre-Owned Limited Warranty, so you'll have complete confidence when you hit the road.
