BMW has chosen the Tokyo Motor Show 2015 for the world premiere of the BMW M4 GTS. Celebrating its Asian premiere, meanwhile, is the new, luxurious BMW 7 Series containing a host of innovations never before seen in automotive construction. Likewise making their Asian debut are the completely newly designed BMW X1 and the plug-in hybrid models, BMW 330e and BMW 225xe — the eDrive variant of the BMW 2 Series Active. BMW will also welcome visitors to the Tokyo show with a range of innovative services, including mobility features.
The BMW M4 GTS improves on the BMW M4 Coupe to attain impressive new levels. With its motor sport genes clearly at the fore, the new model has its sights set squarely on the racetrack — yet it is also equipped for the road. The special edition is limited to a production run of 700 units and celebrates the 30th anniversary of the BMW M3, which has been in production since 1986. It is the latest in a line of extraordinary models, following in the tire tracks of the BMW M3 GT (1995), BMW M3 CSL (2003), BMW M3 GTS (2010) and BMW M3 CRT (2011).
The new BMW 7 Series underlines its claim to redefine what an exclusive, luxurious driving experience looks like in contemporary, pioneering form with an exceptional array of innovations. Key factors in enhancing dynamics, efficiency, comfort and safety while on the move are the use of carbon-fiber-reinforced plastic (CFRP) in the body structure, engines from the BMW Group's new generation of power units, the plug-in hybrid system in the new BMW 740e, the Executive Drive Proactive chassis system, the Driving Experience Control switch with Adaptive mode and BMW Laserlight. Maximizing well-being in the interior are the Executive Lounge feature with massage function, the illuminated Sky Lounge Panorama glass roof, just the right amount of accent lighting and a smartphone holder with an inductive charging station.
