Apart from the Sport, Comfort and EcoPro modes, a new drive system call Adaptive monitors and learns the driver’s unique style and road conditions. The car’s new drivetrain can also select its gear change strategy based on navigation data--so the car knows beforehand how to react to upcoming hills, road conditions and more.
The all-new remote key parking can have the car maneuver itself autonomously, with nobody in the driver’s seat, into or out out of a parking spot. This is done via a press of the button on the newly developed BMW Display Key. No more woes with getting into tight parking spots.
