Do BMW cars have Easter eggs? An even better question, what is an Easter egg ? Many people think that these treats are the sweet preserve of a certain mysterious bunny. While this may be true, they're also cunningly concealed messages, images or features hidden.  According to Hotcars.com: An Easter egg, in automotive terms, is anything the automakers have added to a car as a bonus that's usually hidden. In an allusion to the holiday tradition, it requires one to keep their eyes peeled to find these cool features. So do BMW cars have an Easter Egg? The answer is YES the BMW z4. The design team behind this dazzling car decided to etch a self-referencing shape into its fender, that stretches along the door toward the bottom. The all-new M4 is also the bearer of an Easter egg that’s conveniently located on the front, driver-side fender.  BMW is just one of the many automotive companies producing these thrill finding eggs, keep your eyes out for new models and new eggs coming soon.

Twenty years ago, new vehicle standards were introduced to the automotive industry when BMW announced their new display and operating system, BMW iDrive, in the 2001 BMW 7 Series. BMW drivers were introduced to an entirely new driving experience that allowed them to interact with their vehicle in ways they had never been able to do before. Connections between driver and vehicle grew stronger with the new multifunctional, online-based user experience. All-New BMW iDrive System Since its introduction, BMW iDrive has become a ubiquitous feature throughout the BMW model lineup. For 2021, BMW iDrive celebrates its 20th anniversary. BMW is announcing the next chapter in its display and operating system at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) 2021. The all-new BMW iDrive system is set to transport driver-vehicle interaction into a new digital and intelligent age and will premiere in the upcoming BMW iX where it will be available for the first time. BMW is utilizing the virtual forum the event provides to give a global audience an initial preview of its upcoming all-new BMW iDrive system, which will be officially unveiled later in 2021. BMW’s digital offering at CES 2021 also includes a teaser video that visualizes the development of the user experience inside a BMW over the last two decades. Additionally, the BMW Design team responsible for user experience and user interaction has provided a behind the scenes glimpse of its development work. Another episode has been added to the “ Re-Thinking Design” video series launched as part of the BMW Group’s #NEXTGen 2020 event. All the content from BMW’s presence at CES 2021 and further digital presentations can be viewed in a special CES feature on the online platform at www.bmw.com/ces. Visit BMW USA News for more information on the all-new BMW iDrive System in their article Twenty Years of BMW iDrive. 2001 BMW 7 Series BMW iDrive The BMW iDrive operating system introduced in the 2001 BMW 7 Series replaced old habits such as buttons and controls. The new system was designed with a color screen in the instrument panel (the Control Display) and a rotary dial on the center console (the iDrive Controller). This multifunctional system allowed drivers to control a large number of vehicle settings, entertainment, navigation and telecommunications functions with a single operating tool. The BMW 7 Series was also the first car to feature voice control technology, which allowed selected functions to be activated using spoken commands. iDrive’s controller and voice control made operating the car’s systems significantly easier and safer.

This past year was tough on almost everyone, and finally, it is coming to an end. When we look back on 2020 we can see how we all have changed in many different ways. We have experienced a world we never experienced before and we learned a lot about ourselves and others. This past year has made us rethink the way we live our lives and influenced us to look at the world from a different perspective. We think about our everyday lifestyles and how we can cut costs and save money. For many, switching to a plug-in hybrid was one option. With even more ways to lower overall ownership costs and additional incentives for increased convenience, living an electric lifestyle has a handful of benefits. BMW Blog shares with us more information in their article Electrified BMW Cars Collected Several Awards in 2020. BMW Plug-In Hybrid Benefits Owning a BMW plug-in hybrid comes with many financial incentives such as rebates, tax credits, and grants. You could also save up to $1,500 in fuel costs within five years. Most BMW plug-in hybrids are eligible for HOV lane access with a single occupant in select states. Visit BMWUSA for more information on BMW Plug-In Hybrid Vehicles. BMW 330e Sedan The most popular plug-in hybrid BMW during 2020 was the BMW 330e. The sedan collected a handful of awards including the “ Golden Lenkrad” by Auto Bild and the “ Auto Trophy” by Auto Zeitung. The British magazine What Car? named the BMW 330e the “ Best Plug-in-Hybrid” and “ Best Executive Car,” and also received an “ Electric Car Award.” Autocar and Parkers Magazine both awarded the plug-in hybrid as “ Best Company Car.” BMW X5 xDrive45e Around the world, the BMW X5 xDrive45e was greatly recognized and received a handful of awards as well. The plug-in hybrid received the “ Electric Car Award” from British magazine What Car?, “ Best Large Premium SUV” by Auto Express Magazine, as well as “ Best Large Plug-in-Hybrid” by online portal Car Buyer. Another electrified BMW vehicle that was recognized was the BMW 530e Sedan which was rewarded as “ Best Large Company Car” by Car Buyer. Although the BMW iX3 is not on sale everywhere just yet, the electric model received a few awards already. National publications such as “Auto World” in China rated the BMW iX3 as the new arrival of the year against other electric competitors.

Car and Driver Magazine shares with us their review on the New 4-Series and everything we need to know about it in their article 2021 BMW 4-Series Get A Bold, Controversial New Face. The 2021 BMW 4-series has been redesigned with a new vertical grille design that features a mesh-type pattern. Although the new grille design triggered much controversy, Car and Driver Magazine shares that BMW has been no stranger to controversial design. For example, models like the Z3 coupe or the electric i3 provoked similarly strong emotions in the past. Car and Driver Magazine believe that BMW is now entering another one of those periodic events. The new Arctic Race Blue Metallic color adds more excitement for the new 4-series. The kidneys and décor on the M440i are designed in a Cerium Gray which can be substituted with Shadow Line Black. Other optional features include aggressively styled LED lights or laser lights. Car and Driver Magazine shares that although headroom is a bit limited, there is more space for passengers and cargo. The rear seats are comfortable and there is plenty of legroom. Stop by Competition BMW of Smithtown and explore our large inventory of new and pre-owned vehicles.

To our customers, Like so many of you, we have spent the last several days and weeks learning about the coronavirus (COVID-19) and how it is impacting our world. For Competition BMW of Smithtown, that means understanding how it affects our employees, customers and communities, and then making the necessary adjustments to our work and operations. We have one simple objective that guides us: keeping you and our employees safe. This has been at the center of our conversations every step of the way. With that in mind, we have made several moves in our business in response to the threat of the coronavirus. We have ramped up cleaning services at our stores and are adding hand sanitizer at the front entrances and at all cash registers. Sanitizing wipes are near workstations and counters so that employees can keep them continuously cleaned. We are closely following the Centers for Disease Control's (CDC) guidelines and recommendations on the steps we can take to help prevent the spread of the virus. We have shared specific instructions with our employees on the importance of washing their hands and staying home if they feel sick or are returning from an area of the world identified as posing a coronavirus-related risk. Per CDC recommendations, we will ask employees who have traveled to such locations or have been exposed to others who have traveled to such locations to self-quarantine for 14 days. A strict travel policy for our employees is in place, and we have canceled meetings with large gatherings, again to do what we can to help prevent the spread of the illness. If you don't feel well, or choose not to visit one of our stores, of course we are ready to serve you through many virtual buying and servicing options. We are hear to help in any way possible to ease the stress of car shopping and vehicle service at this time. Please give our sales dept a call at (888) 734 -3331 or our service dept at (888) 874-2022 We will continue to closely monitor the situation and do all we can to protect you and our employees. Thank you The Competition Auto Group Family
