vehicle as another networked component of their lives
– they expect to be able to access information on the
go, communicate via phone or e-mail, and keep up
with the latest news. The term BMW ConnectedDrive

BMW ConnectedDrive
therefore comprises all packages and innovative
technologies that enable the networking of BMW
vehicles and their occupants with the outside
world, including the immediate traf c environment.
BMW ConnectedDrive innovations optionally
enhance convenience, infotainment and safety.
Convenience.
"These days, I let my
Park Assistant decide
whether a parking space
is big enough to get into."
Speed Limit Info.
This system detects speed limits and indicates them in the Info Display or
the optional Head-up Display (only in conjunction with Navigation system
Professional*).
Park Assistant.
This optional driver assistance system makes parallel parking easier.
When travelling at speeds below
km/h, the system measures any
parking gaps the vehicle passes. When a big enough gap has been
found, the Park Assistant will do the steering, while the driver continues
to operate the accelerator and brake pedals – supported by acoustic
signals and instructions in the Control Display.
Surround View, Side View and rear view camera.
These optional systems enhance visibility of the area around the vehicle
when manoeuvring. Surround View presents an image of the BMW as
seen from above in the Control Display. Side View ensures better visibility
when joining a main road from a side street or exit. The rear view camera
enhances visibility when reversing at speeds below
km/h, for example
when parking.
