Founded in March 1916 by Karl Rapp and Gustav Otto, BMW (Bayerische Motoren Werke) is one of the most prominent German automakers in the world. The luxury auto brand established its first Indian production facility in Chengalpet, Tamil Nadu, in 2007. This manufacturing facility makes popular BMW cars that include the 3 Series, 5 Series and 7 Series, alongside SUV models such as the X3, X5 and X7.

I have pre-booked the electric Mercedes-Benz GLC, but the India-spec version does not get air suspension or rear-axle steering, despite being advertised as the fully loaded, top-spec AMG 400 4Matic. This is disappointing, especially since EVs need to manage their added weight. However, the extra weight could also help the car handle undulations and potholes on Indian roads, much like how the Kia Syros EV reportedly rides better than the ICE Syros. Is this reasoning sound? Also, what do you think of Mercedes-Benz leaving out these features despite the high price? I understand that a final verdict should wait until a test drive, but could Autocar India question Mercedes-Benz India CEO Santosh Iyer about this at the launch? The two features reportedly cost only Rs 2.5 lakh together, and it seems disappointing that they might have been omitted to compete with the upcoming BMW iX3.
I drive a Skoda Superb but I want to upgrade with only 2 options in my mind including ES 350h and BMW LWB 5 series. Help me make a decision.
I just sold my SUV and am looking to upgrade, I am an enthusiastic driver and go for on-road trips a lot. I have a family of 4 adults and a 5 month old kid. I am looking for a 4-seater SUV with great driving experience with a car seat for my kid. Also, I need space for a full size stroller and at least for 2 suitcases. As I will drive and explore through this car, reliability is important and easy access to get things fixed if at all is important. My budget is between 2 and 3 crore. Many have suggested LC 300. Do you have any other suggestions?
Hello guys, I’m a 30 year old working professional and am looking to buy an EV mainly for city commute and occasional highway driving (20%). I appreciate build and ride quality, refinement and reliability. The EVs that I’m mainly looking at are the Ioniq 5, Kia EV6, BYD Sealion 7 and BMW iX1. Which do you think will be the right fit for my use case? I’m actually leaning towards the Korean cars and am not willing to spend for the iX1 just for its badge value. Thank you for the answer in advance. You guys are a great source of reliable and measured Automative content in this country. Really appreciate it!

My experience with the BMW 7 Series has been exceptional. It combines style, performance, and technology in a way that no other car can match. Pure bliss.

The BMW i7 looks fantastic! Everyone wants to own a luxurious car like this. Experiencing an electric car with luxury and excellent safety features from BMW is a true pleasure.

It's a BMW, and there's nothing else to ask for. It meets all my needs and expectations, plus the automatic boot feature in the parking lot is a nice touch.

Excellent mileage from a stable highway and off-roader, but with poor tyre selection from BMW. The car running, mileage and fuel efficiency are commendable.

The buying experience was great, and the driving experience is fine. The interior and mileage are impressive compared to other SUVs. The price can be an issue for some.

The car drives like a beast! It's one of the best sedans from BMW under 1 crore. The back seats are spacious and comfortable. Mileage is surprisingly good for a BMW. I drove it over 500 km. The suspension is impressive, but the ground clearance is a downside on Indian roads. The infotainment system is fast, and the Harmon/Kardon speakers have great bass.

This car looks very cool and has good dynamics. However, the performance might not satisfy those looking for the BMW brand and luxury features; they might want to consider the sportier 2 series.

Great performance and awesome ground clearance. I like the features, the alloy wheels and its futuristic design make it the best sports car and SUV. Minimal fuel consumption with high performance. The best thing about BMW is its looks, road presence, and attractive design that turns heads.
View all X5 ReviewsEmerging in 1917, BMW's highly recognisable white and blue logo signifies the colours of the Bavarian state, where the brand has its origins. It has also been reinterpreted as a rotating propeller, since BMW used to produce aircraft engines during World War 1.
BMW is a founding member of the vast BMW Group. This group owns another luxury car brand, Mini, along with the ultra-luxury car brand, Rolls-Royce. The BMW Group also owns its own two-wheeler division under the BMW Motorrad nameplate. On the other hand, Mercedes-Benz does not have any such equivalent two-wheeler brand, but it does operate its own ultra-luxury arm under the Mercedes-Maybach brand.
BMW cars have historically been for those who prioritise taut handling over outright comfort. Some of BMW's noteworthy models that have cemented their place among driving enthusiasts include cars from the brand's M division, such as the M3 and M5. Some of the reasons that made these sports sedans so good to drive was their rear-wheel drive (RWD) system, near-perfect 50:50 weight distribution, tactile steering and eager powertrains.
