KEEPING YOUR EYES WHERE THEY BELONG. In     , BMW was the fi rst European automotive manufacturer to offer a Head-up Display. The concept of Head-up Display technology is to project essential information onto the windshield in the driver’s fi eld of vision. The projected image appears at an ergonomically ideal distance, seeming to hover above the front edge of the hood. The name of this technology speaks for itself: you can literally keep your head up. The system allows you to keep an eye on key driving information while staying focused on the traffi c ahead – so looking at the instrument panel is rarely necessary.

HIGH-TECH BODYGUARDS: ACTIVE AND PASSIVE SAFETY. The all-new  Series Convertible is designed with BMW’s full range of standard state-of-the-art active and passive safety technologies. Active safety features, such as Xenon Adaptive Headlights, a powerful engine and large brakes, help you see and respond to potentially dangerous situations. Should an accident prove unavoidable, passive safety features, such as airbags and Rollover Protection, are designed to help protect you and your passengers. After a severe impact, a host of features spring into action: the doors automatically unlock, and headlights and taillights flash; the starter cable is disconnected from the battery and the fuel supply is cut off.

BMW is a strong proponent of the environment and social responsibility. We launched BMW Effi cientDynamics back in 2000 – the philosophy of providing greater power with increased effi ciency and fewer emissions. This has resulted in signifi cant benefi ts today – for our customers, the climate and the environment. That year, ecological sustainability was also declared one of BMW’s core strategic principles; it is now fi rmly anchored in our entire production chain. It starts with the development of fuel-saving and alternative vehicle concepts, continues with environ- mentally friendly production processes, and ends with innovative recycling methods. This effort has been recognized worldwide; in 1999, BMW AG – the parent company of BMW of North America and BMW Manufacturing Co. in Spartanburg, SC – was the fi rst automotive company to be represented on the Dow Jones Sustainability Group Index. It has remained on the Index ever since; moreover, for the last six years, BMW has been voted the world’s most sustainable automobile manufacturer. At BMW, we strive for and achieve high performance in all we do. BMW recommends

KEEPING YOUR EYES WHERE THEY BELONG. In     , BMW was the fi rst European automotive manufacturer to offer a Head-up Display.

The system allows you to keep an eye on key driving information while staying focused on the traffi c ahead – so looking at the instrument panel is rarely necessary. Understanding data projected by the Head-up Display takes only half as long as reading them off the instrument panel.

Active safety features, such as Xenon Adaptive Headlights, a powerful engine and large brakes, help you see and respond to potentially dangerous situations. Should an accident prove unavoidable, passive safety features, such as airbags and Rollover Protection, are designed to help protect you and your passengers. After a severe impact, a host of features spring into action: the doors automatically unlock, and headlights and taillights flash; the starter cable is disconnected from the battery and the fuel supply is cut off. Should any airbags deploy, BMW Assist™ response specialists are automatically alerted and notified of your location.  Dynamic Stability Control (DSC).

BMW is a strong proponent of the environment and social responsibility. We launched BMW Effi cientDynamics back in 2000 – the philosophy of providing greater power with increased effi ciency and fewer emissions. This has resulted in signifi cant benefi ts today – for our customers, the climate and the environment. That year, ecological sustainability was also declared one of BMW’s core strategic principles; it is now fi rmly anchored in our entire production chain. It starts with the development of fuel-saving and alternative vehicle concepts, continues with environ- mentally friendly production processes, and ends with innovative recycling methods. This effort has been recognized worldwide; in 1999, BMW AG – the parent company of BMW of North America and BMW Manufacturing Co. in Spartanburg, SC – was the fi rst automotive company to be represented on the Dow Jones Sustainability Group Index. It has remained on the Index ever since; moreover, for the last six years, BMW has been voted the world’s most sustainable automobile manufacturer. At BMW, we strive for and achieve high performance in all we do. BMW recommends
