As one of the representative brands in the German automotive industry, BMW (BMW) has a product line covering many fields such as sedans, SUVs, and sports cars, and has a huge global user base. BMW's success is no accident, and its passion and innovation have made it a leader in German motor. This article will explore the passion and innovation behind the BMW legend.
1. Historical evolution.
BMW's predecessor was the Bavarian Aircraft Factory (BFW), a company that produced aircraft engines, and was founded in 1916. After the war, under the terms of the Treaty of Versailles, Germany was not allowed to continue the development of the aviation industry. As a result, BFW began to shift its business to motorcycle and car manufacturing. In 1922, BFW introduced its first motorcycle, the R32. This motorcycle was considered one of the most advanced motorcycles in the world at its time. In 1933, BFW changed its name to BMW AG (BMW AG) and began full-scale production of automobiles, with the launch of its first sedan, the BMW 303.
Second, the pursuit of passion and innovation.
1.Innovation in design concepts.
BMW has always adhered to the design concept of "form and function together", focusing on combining aesthetic value with practicality. In terms of design, BMW tends to have clean, smooth lines, emphasizing dynamism and sportiness. BMW's kidney grille, for example, is one of its signature designs. This grille not only has aesthetic value, but also improves the heat dissipation of the engine.
2.Technological innovation and innovation.
BMW has always maintained an attitude of technological innovation and innovation, and constantly innovated. For example, in 2004, BMW launched the iDrive system, which is a control system that integrates multi-functional, navigation, and other functions, which greatly improves the driver's driving experience. In addition, BMW is also actively exploring the field of electric vehicles. In 2013, BMW launched the i3 electric car, becoming the first German automaker to mass-produce electric vehicles.
3.The inheritance of sports genes.
BMW has always incorporated sporty DNA into its products, emphasizing driving pleasure and sporty performance. BMW's M series, for example, is one of the sportiest models. In addition, BMW has achieved outstanding results in motorsport, such as winning several victories in the World Endurance Championship.
Third, the expansion of the product line.
BMW's product line continues to expand, covering sedans, SUVs, sports cars and other fields. For example, BMW's 3 Series, 5 Series, 7 Series and other sedan models are among the most stable in sales. BMW's X series SUV models have become the leader in the SUV market, and the X5, X6 and other models have an important position in the luxury SUV market. In addition, BMW's Z series sports cars are also popular with consumers.
Fourth, the innovation of brand marketing.
BMW is also very creative in brand marketing. For example, BMW once hung a huge BMW advertisement on a building in Berlin, Germany, that read, "Nothing is more enjoyable than driving a BMW." The ad attracted a lot of attention in Germany and around the world. In addition, BMW has launched the "BMW Experience" campaign to increase brand awareness and consumer loyalty by organizing brand events and test drive experiences.
