BMW continued its global partnership with Art Basel at the 2019 Miami Beach fair. In line with the brand’s decades-long commitment to culture and the arts, BMW supported panel discussions, VIP shuttle services to and from the fair, and a street art mural tour that paid homage to Miami’s reputation as a hub for such works. Street artist Spencer Mar Guilburt and visual artist Alexandre Arrechea teamed up for the mural tour, taking the stunning BMW 8 Series Convertible for a spin through Miami’s famous Wynwood and Midtown Design Districts.
Miami, legendary for its storied street art murals and multiple arts and culture-focused neighborhoods, served as the backdrop for an engaging discussion between Arrechea and Guilburt. The two artists discussed their beginnings, motivations, and an exploration of their artistic styles in relation to street art; they also shared insider perspectives on the importance of street art’s ability to involve all people, not just artists, in art. The BMW M850i xDrive Convertible provided the perfect open-top venue for street art viewing, enveloping its creative passengers in a premium cabin powered by a 530 HP TwinPower Turbo V8 engine.
Arrechea, a Cuba native and visual artist, exhibited works for Art Basel Miami Beach 2019 at the Nara Roesler Gallery; Guilburt, known for his renowned street art murals that showcase his signature “Fire Flower” shapes, is a BMW Group Culture Ambassador hailing from Santa Monica, California.

What are the benefits of Leasing vs. Buying a BMW?
Leasing can be the most financially advantageous way of driving a BMW. Perhaps that’s why more than half of BMW drivers lease. We are committed to providing the most competitive leasing programs, so you can drive a larger, more powerful, better-equipped BMW. Leasing does not require the same cash commitment; you only pay for the value of the vehicle you use during its lease. And, at the end of lease term, you have the flexibility to turn in your BMW for another, re-lease for additional term, buy at set agreement price, or turn in and walk away. Leasing with BMW Financial Services adds the security of keeping it all under one roof. From test drive to lease end, the BMW family meets all your automotive needs.
Personalize
Why not personalize your lease to fit your calendar, your lifestyle, and the way you drive?

When the BMW Group started producing electric vehicles, the objective was to make sustainability a core component not just of the cars themselves, but of every element from design to engineering, supply chain to manufacturing. Now this holistic approach to sustainability extends to the electricity that goes into the cars as well.
Today, the BMW Group and Straus Organic Dairy Farm announced a partnership that will reduce emissions of greenhouse gases from farming while simultaneously delivering the cleanest possible fuel to EV drivers in California. When owners plug in their cars to charge, they will be helping to bring new renewable energy to dairy farms throughout the state.
A methane biodigester at Straus Organic Dairy Farm in Marshall, California, captures methane from cow manure, which would otherwise enter the atmosphere as a powerful greenhouse gas. This methane captured from the cow manure is transformed into renewable energy, which is exported to the public power grid, replacing the need for fossil fuels. By delivering a ‘double’ emissions reduction, biodigesters can produce electricity that has negative carbon intensity, according the California Air Resources Board.

BMW Group Ushers in Next Digital Key Generation
The BMW Group took a leading role in the seamless integration of smart devices and the customers’ digital ecosystem in the early stages. Providing customers with simple, connected and “keyless” access to their vehicles has been a key area of innovation. Today, it is already possible to lock and unlock the vehicle, start the engine and share the key with others using the BMW Digital Key as part of BMW Connected on the smartphone. But this is only the first step in a global technological transformation being shaped and led by the BMW Group. In 2017, the company joined the Car Connectivity Consortium (CCC), where it is a leader in establishing cross-industry, standardized technologies and security standards. As a result of this commitment, the latest generation of a standardized ecosystem for vehicle access that will enable new functions across multiple devices and different manufacturers was recently announced.
