Founded in 1917 as an aircraft engine manufacturer, BMW has evolved into one of the world’s premier automotive brands, renowned for its engineering prowess and iconic design.
Originally known as Bayerische Motoren Werke, BMW expanded into automobile production in 1928, with the acquisition of the Dixi brand. Over the years, it has produced legendary models such as the 328 sports car and the stylish 501 sedan, cementing its place in automotive history.
BMW’s distinctive design elements, including the iconic “double kidney” grille, reflect its commitment to both form and function. Despite popular misconceptions, the blue-and-white logo pays homage to its Bavarian roots, rather than representing an airplane propeller.
From the track-ready M3 E30 to the groundbreaking M5 E60, BMW’s lineup has consistently pushed the boundaries of performance and innovation. Each model, crafted by renowned designers, embodies the brand’s ethos of luxury and precision engineering.
