2016 sees the BMW Group celebrate its centenary under the motto THE NEXT 100 YEARS.<\/p>\n

\u00abAt the BMW Group, we are always on a quest for the best solution. It\u2019s part of our DNA\u00bb, said Harald Kr\u00fcger, Chairman of the Board of Management of BMW AG, at the Centenary Event in Munich on Monday. \u00abIt\u2019s also the spirit of our collaborations, a recurring theme that permeates our corporate and leadership culture\u00bb.<\/p>\n<\/div>

The BMW Group has now made its vision for the future a reality \u2013 with the\u00a0BMW Vision Next 100. This vehicle made its world debut today at the Centenary Event in the Munich Olympic Hall \u2013 exactly one hundred years after the company that is now known as BMW AG was first entered into the commercial register. It combines coup\u00e9-type sportiness with the dynamic elegance of a sedan \u2013 but rather than being an anonymous transport machine, it is a highly customised vehicle that is perfectly tailored to suit the driver\u2019s changing needs. Driver-vehicle interactions are managed by Alive Geometry; Boost and Ease modes offer a choice of driver-controlled or vehicle-controlled operations, and the interior of the vehicle changes to suit the mode of travel. \u00abIf, as a designer, you are able to imagine something, there\u2019s a good chance it could one day become reality\u00bb, said Adrian van Hooydonk, Head of BMW Group Design. \u00abSo our objective with the BMW Vision Next 100 was to develop a future scenario that people would engage with\u00bb.\u00a0After its world debut, the Vision Vehicle will go on a symbolic World Tour entitled \u201cIconic Impulses.\u201d\u00a0stopping in China, the UK and the USA. After its Asian premiere in Beijing, it will travel to London, where the Vision Vehicles of the BMW Group\u2019s British brands \u2013 MINI and Rolls-Royce \u2013 will be unveiled. Its last port of call will be Los Angeles, USA, where BMW Motorrad will add its Vision Vehicle to the collection to complete the quartet of brands.<\/p>\n<\/div>
