BMW’s suite of safety and driver-assistance features uses the latest sensors, cameras, and radars to keep you safe at all times. Whether you’re driving through the city or on the highway, BMW has you covered with these intelligent systems:
BMW's Highway Assistant gives you the freedom to drive hands-free on controlled-access highways up to 85 mph. This innovative system uses Active Lane Change to help you stay on course. You only need to glance at your side mirror to confirm a suggested lane change. Talk about next-level convenience and safety.
Set your desired cruising speed, and let BMW take care of the rest. The Distance Control system automatically adjusts your speed based on the vehicle ahead. Combined with the Steering Assistant, your car will help you stay centered in your lane, giving you a smooth, stress-free ride.
Switch lanes like a pro. BMW’s Active Lane Change system works on multi-lane roads, even at speeds above 40 mph. Whether you're merging into traffic or following navigation instructions, the system automatically adjusts your speed and suggests lane changes based on surrounding traffic conditions. All you need to do is confirm the change with a quick glance.
BMW’s Active Blind Spot Detection uses sensors to alert you when a vehicle enters your blind spot. You’ll see a visual cue in your exterior mirror and feel a subtle vibration in the steering wheel, helping you avoid potential collisions.
BMW’s Emergency Stop Assistant monitors your attention levels while driving. If it detects that you’ve lost focus for an extended period, it will bring the car to a safe stop. This system activates hazard lights and sends an emergency call to get help if needed. You can override it, but it’s there to keep you safe.
With BMW’s Forward Collision Warning system, the vehicle’s cameras and radar scan the road ahead for potential hazards. If an accident is imminent, you’ll receive an alert. If necessary, the system can apply the brakes to prevent or minimize the collision.
High Beam Assist automatically adjusts your high beams depending on traffic and ambient lighting conditions. The system turns the high beams on only when it’s safe, switching them off when oncoming traffic approaches or when the surrounding lighting is bright enough.
BMW’s Lane Keeping Assistant will steer your car back into the center of the lane if it detects you drifting without signaling. You’ll receive a visual and haptic warning to remind you to stay on track. You’re always in control and can easily override the system.
Relive your scenic drives or document incidents with BMW’s Drive Recorder. With up to 40 seconds of video playback, you can review your journey on the infotainment display. The system also takes snapshots automatically in case of a collision, giving you crucial documentation if needed.
The Backup Assistant remembers your route and automatically steers your vehicle in reverse while you control the brakes and gas. Whether you're parking or maneuvering in tight spaces, this system makes reversing a breeze.
Forget the hassle of parking. BMW’s Maneuver Assistant records up to 10 parking maneuvers, like parking in your driveway or garage. The system takes over the throttle, steering, and brakes, so all you need to do is press a button.
With My BMW App, you can park your car remotely. This system lets your BMW autonomously enter and exit parking spaces, so you don’t have to be in the car. Perfect for tight parking situations.
BMW’s Parking View combines front, rear, and side mirrors with 3D graphics, offering a complete visual of your surroundings. The rearview camera ensures you never miss a thing while parking or reversing.
BMW’s Anti-Theft Recorder sends instant notifications to your smartphone if the car alarm is triggered. You can view high-quality footage of the exterior and interior of your car, ensuring that you stay in the loop if anything happens.
