BMW Awards
Though providing BMW owners with the driving experience they know and love is the ultimate reward for BMW, the extensive positive recognition from a variety of global agencies, year after year, certainly doesn’t hurt.
In 2015, its roster of awards has proved as impressive as ever. Here are a few of the prestigious awards BMW has earned this year:
EuroCarBody Awards 2015
The BMW 7 Series was the first-place winner of the 2015 EuroCarBody Award, the world’s highest accolade in car body engineering. Evaluated by engineers from 24 countries and an International OEM Advisory Board jury in five technical categories including efficient development, effective material applications, production efficiency, customer benefit, and engineering orientation, the BMW 7 Series thrilled the EuroCarBody 2015 audience with its lightweight material mix.
2015 Auto Express Green Car of the Year at the LA Auto Show
BMW is quickly making a name for itself as one of the most innovative automakers with regards to creating the technology to make cars more environmentally friendly. So, it is no surprise that the BMW i3 was named the 2015 Green Car of the Year at the LA Auto Show. The vehicle also won that prestigious title in 2014.
Says Auto Express, “Last year we claimed that driving an i3 is like driving the future, and this statement rings just as true today as it did 12 months ago.”
International Engine of the Year Awards 2015
Not only was BMW the overall winner of the Engine of the Year Awards 2015, it earned wins in three different classes.
Four wins in the latest International Engine of the Year Awards plainly demonstrate the BMW Group’s engine-building prowess. The drive unit in the BMW i8 earned two class wins as well as being declared overall winner, with a further class win being garnered by the engine of the BMW M3 and BMW M4.
Car and Driver 10Best
Each year, Car and Driver releases a list of what it deems to be the best cars of the year. This year, the BMW M235i earned the honor of calling itself one of Car and Driver’s 10Best.
When evaluating the BMW M235i, Car and Driver’s Daniel Pund described the vehicle as having a character that rests in between “a fully aggro M car” and “a day-to-day standard sports coupe,” and in his opinion, “that’s perfect.”
2015 Yahoo Autos Green Car of the Year
The BMW i3 earned yet another award for its environmental merits this year, as the 2015 Yahoo Autos Green Car of the Year. Yahoo Autos called the BMW i3 the “most radical vehicle to emerge from any automaker in the past year — and likely the past decade.”
The World’s Most Reputable Company in 2015
The Reputation Institute is a management consulting firm that operates out of New York and Copenhagen. It has been calculating and ranking the 100 most reputable companies in the world for 18 years. In 2015, BMW has the outstanding honor of sitting in the very top spot.
